That's a lot of contradictions. You know if the bible was never changed from how it was originally revealed, there would have been no need for the Quran, by Muslim beliefs at least

I believe his ability to turn water into wine was *supposed* to contradict science, to prove him

Along with his other abilities

Yeah, as I said

If Jesus was God on Earth, or even a prophet who acted on behalf of God, of course he'd be able to violate natural law to prove his divine nature

I know a creationist who believes the Earth was formed 5000 years ago. But he also has a masters degree in environmental sciences and he's seen trees that are 6000 years old. I have no comment to that

Yeah

top kek

It sounds like you were going to add a "but"

A "but" to what?

Jesus:
"I'm gonna prove my divinity by doing impossible stuff"
*does impossible stuff*

I don't believe Jesus and the miracles, but it isn't remotely absurd for someone who does believe in Jesus's divinity to believe that he did those things

Oh, I get it

It's like believing in Zeus, and then believing that Zeus did actually kill people with lightning

Yeahhh

Hahaha

If you believe in the strange, it's not surprising that the strange would do something strange

Exactly

Yeahh I get that

I do like New Testament Christian values, even if I don't believe Jesus was actually some divine being or profit

What do you believe he was

Some spiritual leader amongst the Jews in the Roman province of Palestine. Some dude who taught good morals, and lived an acetic lifestyle

But got crucified because the Romans didn't like the Jews flocking around this guy

Hmm

Your beliefs tend to parallel Abrahamic beliefs more or less, but you're not really Christian, Muslim or Jewish

I'm somewhere between atheistic and agnostic

I find it hard to believe that Jesus was 100% made up, contrary to what a lot of hardcore atheists like to believe

A religion doesn't just spawn from nothing

Yeah especially of this caliber

If you want a religion based on falsehoods, I'd turn to Mormonism or scientology

The former is more controversial

I don't actually have an issue with the Mormon church itself

I could never be a Mormon

Nor could I

It was founded by a known con-man

That I didn't know

Why do you say that about scientology though

The Holy Book of scientology is litterally a science fiction novel

Or so I hear

But Scientology is a cult of rich people, not a true religion, in my eyes
