Supervortex,
Jesus isn't/wasn't propoganda because he leads to Enlightenment, spiritual freedom, and direct divine experiences that are beyond logic and reason
i.e. transcendence. This is something that anyone can directly experience and it is also promised in the Bible, subject to you being a believer.
The people who lived before that, were justified by Faith, or(1 theory says) they were judged accordingly based on what-ever belief they had at the
time even if it was biased, (though that's a grey area)
The 10,000 years thing also a grey area ( I believe in a marrigae between the Bible and archeaology)
Yes there are murders and rapes today. We live in duality, i.e. we wouldn't know good w/o bad. God also experiences everything that we do (So God is
also right there with the person being killed, omnipresence) and evil is a by-product of free-will. We have the choice to choose to be rapists or
murderers, etc. It's a risk willing to take to create beings with free-will. If it could be some other way, then it would be. Plus, we don't know
how this(existence) is going to end quite yet, so perhaps what we see as bad, in the over-all picture, is a intricately interwoven inter-connected web
of actions that all lead to everything making complete sense from the end perspective.

Darkside,
There is more proof for the existence of Jesus than for the non-existence. The majority of the world including archaeological and scientific
communities believe that his existence was factual. You, my friend, are in the minority.

I'm in Love with Jesus through the Enlightening spirit that indwells me, i.e. the Love he has for me is now known and I can use that same knowable
great Height of Love to return the favor.

Hello old friend, it's been a while since our debates from last year. Yeah yeah yeah, your practically quoting Zeitgeist, which upon doing much
research, is full of lies. So far after researching Mithra & Horus, there are practically no similarities to Jesus, and I'm currently working on a
Zeigeist rebuttal documentary that should be done and be online this time next year.
AncientVoid,
Actually the Love I have for Jesus is something that started off as a intellectual understanding, add to that reading the Bible, prayer, and
meditation, and WALLAH, God sends me a Seperate Spirit from myself to reside in my body with me and grant me Enlightenment. I'm actually doing some
research on being able to do some MRI's and additional Brain scans of people who have gone through (or are undergoing) this Holy Spirit experience
(since most of you need some kind of empirical scientific authoratative opinion on the matter). So no, it wasn't based on me telling myself it's
true over and over. This is something that was given to me, outside of myself and other people in my household also witnessed this Holy Spirit roaming
around the house and moving past them for several weeks, making it objective to them.

WOW GOD is so incredibly unexplainably beyond Words AWSOME. Pure Love !!!!!!
