Ignoring The Evidence : Why Are You Not An Evolutionist?

Is anyone looking?

Yes! I believe the romans looked for his body.

Name one scholar that denies Jesus ever existed.

In post #177, you said Jesus Christ. Are you moving the goalposts on me?

Roman Tacitus, was he lying when he wrote about Jesus Christ? How about pontius pilate, was he real guy?

Jesus did not have the surname of "Christ". Historians may have written about a man named "Jesus". They did not write about "Jesus Christ".

I cant even believe people have a problem with common ancestry between humans and apes. Just look at us, and look at them! Before even digging into the science, it just seems right.

Look at a ford motor car and look at a Chrysler. They have many similarities but are designed separately. One certainly didn't evolve the other. But the cars look similar and have similar features because they share a common environment and perform a similar function, which is traveling on the road. If two separate creatures share the same environment then they are bound to have similarities.If we breath the same air then we both will have lungs. If we share similar diets then we will have similar digestive systems. if we need to see where we are going and see things in similar ways then we will have similar eye placement and other facial features. Aquatic creatures will have similar features because they share a similar environment as well. A fish wont need lungs or legs as they need fins and gills. Other fish near related or distant related will have similar features because they share that same environment.

That didn't work for 2/3 of the worlds population.

It worked for the entire worlds population. Everyone has heard to Jesus. But its another thing if some choose not to believe the message.

Like a worm and a mole?

I didn't say it worked in every case. But generally creatures that occupy a similar environment have similar features. If you look at the entire planets animal species all have two eyes, a nose and mouth for eating. Maybe if they were on some other planet they might be different.

Moles do spend time above ground just like any animal so they have some features the same as others. An interesting point is that golden moles look identical to marsupial moles which are not related and are very hard to tell apart.

oh come on! That should be evidence enough for you that indeed He rose from the dead?

 

[newhopeinHim]

Maybe he never existed.

I choose to unlike this post

Rationality does have it's price.

So no evidence is evidence, now?

 

[newhopeinHim]

you must search your own heart... evidence is everywhere of the goodness of God. Yes the One that rose from the dead. Christians walk by faith not site. We just know because of a relationship with Jesus.

 

[newhopeinHim]

He is the one who put breath in your own body. Life is to astounding to not be a God. The only living God.

I am not impressed by the incredulity of others.

People don't "rise from the dead."

Such as?

Is anyone who disagrees with your faith belief, automatically stubborn?

If the story worked and was believed by all, the entire world's population would be Christian.
