Sure. Stories about talking burning bushes, people turning into salt and pregnant virgins are a little too farfetched to be taken seriously, imo. Who knows, maybe 2000 years from now people will worship Harry Potter and believe those books are the TRUTH.

What all and sundry thinks is counseled via what they understand. How plenty do you recognize approximately faith, and in specific, Christianity? you're able to think of historic previous is a substantial pile besides until eventually you look at extra advantageous. There are people who think of we faked the moon touchdown, who do no longer think of the Holocaust extremely got here approximately, and who nonetheless believe the earth is flat. faith is purely the prepare of the theory in some thing believed to be real. i think Jesus became a historic guy or woman, He did specific issues, made specific claims, and various eyewitnesses have been there writing it down in what we now call the Bible. the religion of Christ, or Christianity is the prepare of residing out what Christ mentioned we could constantly and what's predicted from godly human beings. Why is this a brilliant pile? If Jesus have been some evil guy or woman who purely lied for all time and each physique knew it, then you certainly could be onto some thing. yet historic previous, archeaolgy, very own thoughts, extra advantageous-biblical documents, and so on, all make for a "previous a shadow of doubt" case, and besides that, our very own very own adventure in the issue after having conceded that it became real and becomming Christians ourselves. i think of any honest study of the data and cloth will lead maximum all and sundry into the religion, it somewhat is, until eventually they're purely unwilling to alter their minds whilst the data shows they could. hi, Christ Himself promised some thing: "Ask and it will take transport of to you; seek for and you will discover; knock and the door would be opened to you. for each guy or woman who asks gets; he who seeks unearths; and to him who knocks, the door would be opened" (Matthew 7:7-8).

Religion is only stupid if you choose it to be, but either way, I'm stupid.
