> @The Scop Who...How...What... Many answers to those questions... but god is still dead as it was since eternity...
@Eduard They're all great questions posed by Friedrich Nietzsche over a century ago. I wouldn't expect you to have answers prepared because it's actually impossible to answer any of them to any satisfaction.

Don't worry though, God is not dead. He did die for three days once, but then He rose again. And I think it's happening again.

I'm willing to potentially accept the existence of a man named Jesus, of whom these "miracles" refer to, but I'm not willing to grant that he defied the laws of physics

@The Scop he sacrificed a weekend for us... and If I would be a christian... I would not make Jesus God... I mean... Christianity is a Monolatric Religion afterwards... but... I see your point... I'm a romanian... I have been bombarded by orthodox stuff... and I'm a former JW... and I just bought Nitzche... lol

@Eduard You are blessed to live in an Orthodox country. Don't blow it.

Why do you believe rather than not?

Or simply say, "I don't know"

@The Scop ... ohhh my friend... kind words as any other orthodox... I am blessed to live in UK... by myself... for myself and my family... jesus had nothing to do with it...

Belief is a powerful and meaningless word... most hijacked...

> I'm willing to potentially accept the existence of a man named Jesus, of whom these "miracles" refer to, but I'm not willing to grant that he defied the laws of physics
@Smoke He did not break the laws of physics from an Orthodox perspective. Rather, He revealed to us what the purpose of death really is. He revealed to us a truth about reality that was corrupted long ago. Death is not natural.

@Eduard You'll come around.

In what way did he "reveal" these things?

As far as I can tell, these are myths and stories

Like many other myths and stories

That most judge to not be true

How do you reconcile that?

@Smoke I'm too busy to go into it right now, but will happily have this conversation another time.

Hang in there, E.
