years before you religion was invented?! How can it have any kind of credibility when it was simply made up at a certain point of time as were all the rest!! As if god would create the earth then wait to send Jesus-it makes absolutely no sense.

Yes it is not fair. I would have to be in heaven with some damned Pharaoh. I mean god couldn't condemn him out of hand just because he was a Pharaoh could he? But on the other hand I wouldn't want to sit next to him in Heaven because he didn't have to make the Jesus or Hell choice. It is not fair. I got nothing against Pharaohs on the whole, though.

The God mentions that the world was created by the triune God of the New Testament. The Father, The Son (Col 1:16) and the Holy Spirit (Gen 1:2). One of the earliest people in the Bible was Job and he mentions Jesus:
Job 19:25 "For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:"
The people of the Old Testament were saved just like the people of the New Testament. The difference was that they were looking forward to the Messiah and we are looking back. They many not have known the name of the coming Messiah, but "a rose by any other name is still a rose'.

Yes, man has been around long before Christianity was "invented", yet that does not mean they didn't believe in GOD. You said "As if god would create the earth then wait to send Jesus-it makes absolutely no sense", but what about it makes no sense? It only makes no sense to you because you are NOT a Christian. Just because you say it makes no sense, does not mean it is untrue, it just means that you don't believe it. Scriptures in the old testament which were written LONG before Jesus came to this earth, for-told the coming of a Savior, it is not just something that happened in the spur of the moment.
If you are not a Christian, why do you care anyway? Unless of course you are just trying to get a rize out of Christians, or attempting to lead them away from truth by discrediting their faith. Just because somebody don't understand something, does not mean that it makes no sense, it just makes no sense to the one who don't understand :-)
By the way, the claim that the world was round made no sense to people at one time, that just goes to show you how truth don't always make sense to many people, even the scientific.

Jesus was always there, who do you think was walking and talking to Adam and Eve in the garden? Was not the Father but the Son of God, Jesus himself said that no one have seen the Father but the Son. He also said that everything was created by Him and for Him. If you have a Bible, read it and if you didn't know now you do, God Bless.

I think you've got the wrong end of the stick!!!!!
God is life, and when he created Adam and Eve and the rest of mankind Christianity was born.
In case you didn't know Adam and Eve were the first humans made not the only

Well actually its entirely possible that the world really did start with Adam and Eve.
It is no different from the theory of evolution in some ways. Life has to have started somewhere at ONE point on Earth, it didn't start in many spots at once.
So its this same way according to the Bible, life was started by God in one place, with Adam, Eve, and all the trees and animals.

The Bible is the story of the family of Jesus from the creation of Adam in the Garden through his return. His family on earth was the first and the last.

Jesus is the center of all history, before and after his life, for all people in history, before and after. His action of salvation is the same for us who lived and live after his resurrection and for those who lived before his birth (birth that was expected from the beginning of times).
Like a child who need time to grow, humanity was brought by God's hand till the point in which it would have to meet his Savior and Lord, the Man who would have reconciliate earth and Heavens through his sacrifice.

God created the Earth, then He created man, Adam and Eve. At that point, He let them know who He was and what His expectations were. He did that constantly throughout the time prior to Christ! It was all leading up to Christ.
Prior to the time of Christ we practiced the same faith as the Jewish.
