How about instead of typing in militant atheism or state atheism you instead search history of the Soviet Union or Lenin or Stalin whatever and actually read about the subjects. Shut off the faux news and actually learn something. Maybe even ... Gasp!! Read what some actual Russian people have to say about the subjects, you know people who actually lived there? Crazy I know!

Aww the George Burns look alike and Daffy are unable to disprove me so instead they are going to bleat together. Angry bleating but the bleating of a broken loser.

I humbly accept your surrender.

Not to mention the Jospehus and Tacitus passage are outrageous Christian forgeries not appearing until centuries later.

Proof?

You make lots of absurd claims but you never can back them up.

I will not accept garbage from an Atheist web site that doesn’t have documented proof to their claims.

Show us your proof.

[Givemeliberty]

Even your hero Bart Erhman states the Josephus and Tacitus passages are forged.

Many Christian scholars pastors and priests say to avoid using Tacitus at all costs because he would never refer to jesus as Christ, and even educated believers admit the Jospehus line is forged but how much is it forged?
Links from several sources have been provided umpteenth times Daffy and you know it.

Fabrications from you are acknowledged. You are prone to say anything and claim it as a fact. When asked for proof you just side step the question. Your opinions, hunches and guesses is considered not proof.

You have made so many deceitful statements it’s hard to believe anything you say. Why is untruthfulness a mainstay of your persona? Do Atheist embrace lying as being ok? Or is this just something unique to you?

We talked about a moral code among Atheist and where does it come from. I think some Atheist are honest but I don’t believe you are one of them. Your track record here on topix shows it. I have to ask myself what is your incentive to tell the truth?

You don’t care about your image here. You’re not worried about answering to a higher power about all your lying. So what the heck, you just lie and claim it as the truth. Hoping that the audience and regulars won’t notice. This is going to be a hell of a shock to you, we notice.

Again you supply no sources.

Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed, and biblical scholars and classical historians regard theories of his non-existence as effectively refuted.[

The term "Christ myth theory" is an umbrella term that applies to a range of arguments that in one way or another question the authenticity of the existence of Jesus or the essential elements of his life as described in the Christian gospels. Among the variants of the Jesus myth theory, the notion that Jesus never existed has little scholarly support, and although some modern scholars adhere to it, they remain a distinct minority; virtually all scholars involved with historical Jesus research believe that his existence can be established

Josephus was apparently been altered from the original.

Tacitus is probably close to pristine, he simply documented what people said, not that what they said were actually facts.

Let us remember that if we use a criteria to "debunk" Christian documents then we must use the same criteria for all ancient texts. The result would be the elimination of most of human history.

[Givemeliberty]

What fabrications? What lies? How did you come to the conclusion they were?

Unable to answer this caulks up yet another failure on your part.

So who was the middle eastern dressed man who went in your dad's hospital room anyways?

Not apparently, definitely. Tacitus' is pristine? Are you seriously claiming an imperial Hellenistic roman would have called a long dead Rabbi Christ? In a copy of his work from the 15th century! Lmfao!

Seriously? Care to rethink that one?

Bart Ehrman's

In "Did Jesus Exist? The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth," Ehrman soundly refutes the arguments -- sometimes made by atheists, agnostics and humanists -- that early storytellers invented Jesus.
