So, Jesus being a con artist is o.k. as long as it in some way "proves" he existed?<BR/>I really am enjoying your blog!<BR/><BR/>JennAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24006920.post-1144333224260476922006-04-06T09:20:00.000-05:002006-04-06T09:20:00.000-05:00Whoops I wrote too soon A.S. after rereading I see...Whoops I wrote too soon A.S. after rereading I see now what your saying. These are the lengths people will go to try and justify their flimsy ideas trying to come up with lame "scientific explanitions". My bad I'll read closer next time A.S. before I post.

The solar mythos explaination works just fine. The suns reflection off of the water makes far more sense. Especially in light of the clear evidence as pointed out by A.S. in "The Christ Conspiracy" in the chapter -- the son of god is the sun of god. Since these tales are telling us about the heavenly bodies moving through the skies, and the christ character clearly mythlogical. Then why bother with a scenario where yes if water is frozen a person could walk upon it. I'm not trying to be an ass A.S. but I don't see the signifigance of this idea in light of all the other evidence. Have I missed something here?

Coming to the river where the water was deep and the current strong, he said to himself: "This stream shall not prevent me. I shall go and see the Blessed One, and he stepped upon the water which was as firm under his feet as a slab of granite. When he arrived at a place in the middle of the stream where the waves were high, Sariputta's heart gave way, and he began to sink. But rousing his faith and renewing his mental effort, he proceeded as before and reached the other bank."<BR/><BR/>Reminds me of the Monty Python sketch which included the line:<BR/>"If we cease to believe in it, it will fall down." Reference to the apartment building the characters were living in. <BR/><BR/>Religion is like that, huh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
