Today, many centuries ago, Jesus died for your sins

What does it matter? That was way way long ago.

 

Agreed, Let's Leave The Past Back Where It Belongs And Move On...



Cheers Glen.

 

Yeah, let's erase all our memories and start from scratch. It's gonna be fun to reinvent language and to learn how to wipe your ass.

 

^^ Govt. experimented with two children. They were raised since birth in isolation with only eachother for years. The Govt. wanted to see how they would communicate and if they would make a language. The two young kids after a few years started speaking to eachother, in none other than.....Latin.

 

And the other half of this conversation is only on the topic of something that happened about 1950 years earlier than that.

 

Didnt they base the movie the blue lagoon on that?:love:

 

I betcha if folks started making fun of the Jews and Muslims folks'd be screaming "racist!" and the jokesters would get banned. And make fun of Paganism, same thing- banned. Whatever. True Christians don't act like that.

 

I love, love, love Jesus.

 

well it is a thread about Easter so really there isn't many jokes to be made about Muslims here.

i never met him.

 

he was a really cool guy. he wasn't god. who is also cool. christianity is full of shit. he didn't die for your sins, but mary magdalane made him a kind of folk hero. he was exicuted at the age of 33, for having been a little shining path che guavara at the age of 12. leading the insurgency that routed a garrison of roman green barrettes from the jerusalem temple.

he also didn't paint easter eggs nor chocklet bunnies. that was ishtarte. a goddess of healing. who was also pretty cool too.

 

your making me wish i did meet him. although i wonder when people answer the question "if you could do ____ with anyone who would it be?" when they answer jesus do they realize they dont speak the same language. i mean its great for physical things like......'if you could play baseball with anyone who would it be.' then sure jesus is a good choice, after all how many people from the middle east are good at baseball? but if it is,,,,'if you could have diner with anyone then who would it be?' i think jesus would be a poor choice unless you brushed up on his language or was just looking to try his homemade instant wine that he makes after the waiter brings the bread rolls and glasses of water.

 

If Jesus died for "our" sins, but I've sinned way more than you have.

That means he loves me way more than you nanner nanner

.......Well, either that I killed him more

 

Hey VG, Jesus still loves you. He loves you equally as he loves others.

 

yup. just exactly like all those other dead guys who started religions when they were alive and channeled the same god who chose them to do so.

 

So you are one of the only few people in the world who has a family tree going back to the beginning of our calendar? How did you get it, from Dan Brown perhaps?

 

i think pretty much everyone has family trees going a LOT FURTHER back then that. just very few are able to actually TRACE them.

all the way back to 40,000 in oldevoi, 26,000 years ago.

 

I don't know
if you say so
got so many do's and don'ts my head is spinning
Hey Romeo, j-j-j-just let get go
maybe everything could use a little sinning

 

How do you know he didnt paint easter eggs?
I would believe that over turning water into wine...

 

Yes smartypants, but we don't have the family tree in our possession.

Well, a lot of us have, but it doesn't go further back than the middle ages in most cases (as they weren't kept on record for the large majority of people). So it is impossible to tell from which people that lived 2000 years ago you descended from.
I think you know what i ment anyway.

 

yes of course. but we do have mitochondrial DNA!

i don't know mine even that far back. i'm not terribly concerned though. that's just the source of the body i occupy. not my spirit that lives in it. i know i have hessian, clan ross, onondaga and konigsberg. but none of my true self's previous lives were on this planet, so the ancestry of my body doesn't have that much to do with anything as far as i can see.
