Sorry Walttx, it was even on the history channel. THere are serious historians behindthe realization that the founding of Christianity is myth.

Brother G-man nailed it.

Amen Spectre.

Had ham AND turkey here, and am STILL feasting upon leftovers with great delight!
Even had a nice big ham sandwich as a toast to Al Queda!

So to REALLY honor Jesus, men should start wearing long robes / dresses like He did???

If I recall, Jesus also wasn't a big fan of usury and banking, so you probably also shouldn't use checks or credit cards to buy all those Christmas gifts with.

Well, Tobacco is getting rather expensive, and you can get much more mileage out of a turkey.

Quoted:
If we go and study the founding of CHristianity, it was in 325 CE, (AD) It was founded by Constantine the Byzantine Emperor. He did it soley to bring order to his empire. CHristmas day is actualy Saturnalia, a pagan festival.
If you want to find a religion that was bases onthe teachings of Jesus, THe Celtic Church is the way to go.
It was founded by [red]James the brother of Jesus and Joseph the son of Jesus[/red]. It was all throught outhte British Isles. It was Connected by Marriage to Arch Druid. At no point was it called Christianity as Cristos is a tittle, It means the 'annointed one'

Actually the history of the first 4 centuries of 'CHristianity' is fascinating, it laid the groundwork for future generations of deceit.

Study Jesus and you will see a man that never stopped being a Jew, His ministry is one that is worth believing in, not the fiction that was created by historians..

Put down the crack pipe and step away from the keyboard. James was the brother of Jesus and the son of Joseph but Jesus was not married and never had any children.

I eat whatever I want whenever I want. Worshiping or showing respect for someone has nothing to do with what ONE EATS!!!!

Hell, I had chips and salsa and beer on Xmas and I don't think it pissed anyone off!!!

before each meal. Wonder how tnFrank would
intepret that.

Oh boy, another un-informed IDIOT.

Quoted:
Anyone that knows my views on Christianity knows that I think most Christians are way off base with what they believe. Case in point. Eating Ham on Christmas to celibrate Jesus's birthday. Jesus the Christ was a "Jew of Jews", he was the "best" Jew that every lived and I think it's a slap in his face to eat Ham(pork, forbidden under Jewish law) on his birthday. Christians that wouldn't dare work on Sunday(a hold over from not working on the Jewish Sabbath) eat their fill of Ham on Christmas to Honnor the Christs birth. And ya'll have a hard time wondering why I'm secptical about any thing I'm told about Christianity by a Christian.Now ya' know one reason why.

I guess it must be true since the history channel said it was.

there are more things written about Jesus than anyone else in history, and to say that someone in the year 2003 has discovered that it is all wrong is really hard to believe.
i am not just talking about the Bible, i mean historians from that time period wrote about Jesus also. Josephus for instance.

Excellent resource- christian, jewish and historical scholars discuss the first christians the diversity of jesus's followers and their struggle to shape and define their identity and faith.
Sorry if it's not the 700 club version.

thats not the case, I know how Jesus has changed me and my life. I know that sounds funny, but i know first hand.

I am sure you cant prove the reason you believe everything in your life beyond a shadow of a doubt.

No I can't. But if I can't , I don't present it as "fact". It's merely my opinion.

If I said that I had documents that 'proved' the bible was incorrect, but I said "well, it has been translated a couple of times. And it was written over the span of a thousand years or so. Oh yeah-- most of it was written by one guy. Then a couple hundred years later, some other guys did a reedit on it. And there are several versions of it in circulation-And most major groups can't agree which version is correct."

How seriously would you take my 'proof'????

Sorry Walttx, Josephus was a Jew inthe pay of the Romans, also his coverage is minor of Jesus. I seem to recall the Koran having more details of him.

Also---

THere again is Historical thought that Jesus was married to MAry Magdaline. THe Wedding feast at Cannan was his according to the Esscene tradition,

As far as wether Jesus ate pork or not. I think the fact that he cast the demons into swine is proof enough of what he though about pigs. He did it because the man keeping the pigs was a Jew and wasn't suppose to eat pork so Jesus took care of two birds with one stone by casting out the demons from Legion and casting them into the pigs which went into the sea and drowned them selves.
