Can I even come up with a comment to describe this? I don't think I can. It's just too stupid. |

It's better than most creationist ****... And somehow I think I got more from that text than I've ever gotten from your attacks on atheists... |

Reps: 382 (power: 0) | | It appears that Christ was born beyond time, in year “0”. Please tell me that I am hallucinating, and that sentence is not claiming that being born in 'year 0' makes you beyond time. Anyway, I thought there was no 'year zero'. Christ was (discounting the 4BC thing) born in 1AD.

Yeah. That's why the year 2000 was still part of the 20th Century.

He was probably born in 4 or 7 BC, according to most scholarly estimations I've heard.
I didn't read it cause it really irks me when people just post pages of text they've copied and pasted from somewhere. |

This is a pretty well-known biblical contradiction. See Did Jesus Christ Really Live?
"Matthew says he was born when Herod was King of Judea. Luke says he was born when Cyrenius was Governor of Syria. He could not have been born during the administration of these two rulers for Herod died in the year 4 B.C., and Cyrenius, who, in Roman history is Quirinius, did not become Governor of Syria until ten years later. Herod and Quirinius are separated by the whole reign of Archelaus, Herod's son. Between Matthew and Luke, there is, therefore, a contradiction of at least ten years, as to the time of Christ's birth." |
