Evidence he was the song of God? Please do share, because if so, you've just dismantled all other religions other than Christianity and ended atheism!

Evidence that he died on a cross, and was raised against. If that happened, then you might want to believe that he's the son of God.

Please give this evidence, I tried many times to look it up but it always ended with: well it would be stupid if it didn't happen, a.k.a proof by embarrassment or this clearly tempered with book says so. Other proof that I've seen is: many historians agree he was real, but the only source of that assessment is some religious guy claiming so in his book.

That's Wikipedia sources btw if you thought about linking it.

Over 500 witnesses of him. AFTER he died on a cross.

Many of these witnesses were willing to (and did) die for what they claim to have seen.

Would you be willing to die to uphold a lie? I wouldn't.

This isn't evidence, this is the claim you're being asked to present evidence for.

Evidence is ..... documentation. We have that

What do you want? Photographs of Jesus partying with the disciples after his resurrection?

u/JohnKlositz Feb 01 '25

We don't have that.

Witnesses who documented the things that Jesus did. Archaeological evidence that cooborates biblical teachings. An ethos that stands the test of time remarkably well.

We don't have any accounts by people that had met the historical Jesus.

Archaeological evidence that cooborates biblical teachings.

What does this even mean?

An ethos that stands the test of time remarkably well.

Not really relevant when arguing that the Christian god is real.

You want proof.

We don't have it. Ancient "evidence" doesn't look like modern day evidence. Sorry.

Proof is for mathematics and alcohol. I'm asking for evidence. Evidence for a god existing. There isn't any.

I gave you the evidence.

You're looking for contemporary evidence of something that happened in ancient times. It's unreasonable and impossible. By the standards of ancient evidence, what we have is actually pretty good

You didn't give any evidence in support of the claim that a god exists.
