What do you think Jesus was?

Of course he could. Look at Big Brother, Santa Claus, the Malboro Man, Satan, Robin Hood, Ronald McDonald etc. Often fictional people have a bigger influence on culture than many real ones.

Those aren’t religions.

John 11:25-26 - Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die."

sounds like a lot of pooh to me, sorry, but really, do you think that this dialect & grammer was even close to what a foreign language was like all that time ago ?

but beyond that, i have to know.......

did Jesus invent dinosaurs ? really, did he ?

all i wanna know is....WTF invented dinosaurs ?

yep, i’m sure it was that jesus bloke - hey, shouldnt that be on the list of votable things ?

1) Messiah
2) dellusional chap of biblical proportions (lol)
3) a normal chap with a few good one liners after too much wine
or
4) a creator (of dinosuars, but not them LEGO ones)

They’re still fictional characters who create a lot of hype, which is what I was trying to illustrate.

Also, what about Satan? He’s a religious figure who has arguably created equal hype to Jesus himself. EVERYTHING bad that happens in blamed on him.

He is a magical jewish zombie that wants to raise a cult on the mortal world so he can rule all existance. I have about as much proof of this as the vatican has proof that he is the messiah.

I’ve actually heard from other sources that Jesus was actually born from a wealthy/noble family and was pretty much already decided to be king of the jews. Funny how that could twist up biblical interpretation, eh?

This is stupid. It’s like telling me the story of little red riding hood, and then asking, “What do you think the wolf was?”
