You of course have eyewitness testimony and more than 200-300,000 pieces of written testimony about them?
Bullshit.
And no, God does not make mistakes, which is why the version which does NOT agree with the majority is out.
Some of these divinely inspired men were said to be doing mushrooms.
Yep. Jesus was a minority.What if the majority is wrong though? Again this was a decision made by men not God, so what if they picked the wrong side? The MAJORITY is not always right.
The Gospel was written by people who interviewed the disciples. The written word wasn't then what it is today. People didn't all read and there wasn't Fed Ex. Papyrus was revolutionary, for pete's sakes. Before that, people wrote on clay tablets or stone. Not conducive to quickly jotting down information.

So now you are admitting that it wasn't written by people who knew Jesus directly? Also the people who made copies of the texts were illiterate, purposefully chosen because they wouldn't know what they were copying and therefore be tempted to change it. But what happens when you do this is, mistakes. They are illiterate so they don't really realize when they mispell something. And using the form of writing at the time a wrong mark wouldn't really be mispelled but a whole new word entirely.
On what? A rowboat? I think THAT would have certainly been in the bible don't you? I mean if he had lived 100 years maybe I would believe that but honestly he wasn't alive long enough to conquer such a task as that.
Once again missing the point. It has nothing to do at all with man, God ensured through divine Guidance that the Bible would be what it is.
some buddhists and historians believe that Christ walked among them too...only when he was young....where we have no books of jesus when young, other than one mention of him staying behind in a temple in town to preach at 13, and mary and joseph thought he was missing... no other mention of his youth that i can remember, other than this one day in his life....
i am certain there is plenty on his youth that is not recorded in the Bible as it stands
If he could walk on water, don't you think he could teleport?True a lot is left out of his youth but how long would it take you or me to walk from the middle east to Tibet, showing up in a temple halfway, and coming back to Jerusalem in our early thirties for the big show. And why don't buddhists worship him?

Hmmm...what other fabrications do you know of where people down through the ages have laid down their lives in support of? Over and over again? For 2 thousand years?
And what, exactly, was the profit to the disciples, who all but one died poor and tortured, to spread this ideology? What was their motivation, if it was all just vapid musings and power-mad fabrication?
Or somewhere in between.
Faith is fine, but people need to understand the difference between what's fact and what's taken "on faith". They aren't interchangeable no matter how much some wish they were.
Honey, Islam came along after Christianity. Islam doesn't contradict Christianity, either, nor the existence of Christ. In fact, Islam supports the NT EXCEPT for the view of Christ as God. So actually, I'm glad you brought it up.
I don't believe anybody died for Greek gods, or in the interest of spreading news of their individual cults to others, far away.
Though you have to admit, that's much too far away, in terms of years, for us to get any "reliable" information on. The oldest and best documented occurence we have from ancient times is the life and times of Christ....and you think even that information is not reliable. So of course you can't believe anything less well documented....
THey aren't interested in spreading an ideology. Islam doesn't seek converts. It seeks to destroy Christians, nitwit. You don't spread ideology by killing your potential converts, or by blowing your own self up, genius.
