Do you beleive in Jesus?

I heard it from random crazy Christians on youtube.

Did they actually cite a particular verse of the Bible (the text that they as Christians "claim" to believe in) or was it their own theory?

If I remember correctly, they cite places in the Bible where they can trace characters' families back to Adam and Eve. That said, I have not read the Bible, so I don't know how much of it is completely made up.

It is kind of interesting to see what concepts people come up with based on the text of the bible, though. The term "trinity" wasn't mentioned in the Gospels, but the ideas that make up the concept of the trinity are present.

Even if you can prove SOME of the events in the Bible actually happened, wether they were of divine intervention (or whatever the fuck you want to call it) is impossible to prove. And you can't prove WHEN ANYTHING in the Bible was written. So there's no way to say for certain if there is a higher being looking over - and possibly laughing at - us or not.

It's also interesting to see how people take parts of the Bible that aren't actually sacred (Leviticus is just a list of the laws they had around that time, for example) for their own hateful, prejudiced agenda. lolooolololololol gays are sooooo evilll

Such practices are forbidden by the New Testament as well.

The Bible frequently stresses the importance of both genders.

But states that males are superior.

Tori Amos made a song about male superiority in Christianity and how much it pissed her off. That was a really good song.

Well actually, it's possible to prove every event in the Bible, just give me an event and I'll prove it.

In evolutionism, it states that everything came from something before it, but it says that the universe came from nothing, so the whole theory just self-detonate itself, a lot of people believe in the theory but it's too complicated, makes no sense, and some people believe in it for no reason (some because there aetheist and they have nowhere to turn to).
