    Part of a cruel hoax that amazingly has been fooling gullible folks for over 2000 years.

    According to reliable history, a man named Jesus was born over 2,000 years ago in Bethlehem, a small town in the land of Judea.
    When Mary was told that she would have a child and that she was to name him Jesus, she asked: “How is this to be, since I am having no intercourse with a man?” God’s angel Gabriel replied: “Power of the Most High will overshadow you. For that reason also what is born will be called holy, God’s Son.”—Luke 1:30-35.
    Although Jesus rarely spoke of himself as God’s Son, he did acknowledge that he was. (Mark 14:61, 62)
    By his dynamic teachings and by the way he lived in harmony with them, Jesus has powerfully affected the lives of people for nearly two thousand years.
    It is through Jesus Christ that imperfect humans can become reconciled to God through faith in his ransom sacrifice.

    Jesus Christ is the son of God, sent by God to give His life for us as a sacrifice to be crucified and die on the cross for us so we who believe in Him will have life eternally. :) But it's your choice whether you do or dont follow and believe Him. He doesnt force Himself into your life, you must accept Him if you really want Him. I hope what i say might make sense to you. :)

    In this world there are two evil forces that destroy man. Not alcohol, not drugs. The second force is gambling that is familiar and need not be dwelt upon further. The first force is religion.

    The Jesus deception exceeds all others in the evil that has been perpetrated upon man.

    “Jesus” is an abstract concept derived from the attributes of existing religions of the time. You might reason that the Jesus story is the true belief: Jesus, conceived supernaturally, was god born as a man. Not as far fetched as the other tales? Each god, Hercules, Zeus, Dionysis was god born as a man with an element of supernatural birth tossed in for good luck. Hence, the Jesus story is a popular rendition of the same ancient tale that circulated thousands of years before Paul produced and edited his version of the Christian tale.

    The Jesus deception is a potent tool of political psychology whose purpose is to keep man in bondage, without hope, without a future, with the payoff at death’s door when retribution for being conned is impossible. Like any pyramid scheme only those at the top come out winners.

    A man. Perhaps a great man, or perhaps a man who has had great things attributed to him. However, he was just a man.

    Jesus Christ is an individual, who wanted to be presented to the world as someone very different than the way he exists, taking credit for God's spiritual healing and this is just one area. He wanted people to believe in him so they can be "saved".

    Jesus of Nazareth was a gifted orator and a natural-born leader. He inspired those around him to think outside of the box (or the Levitical law) and to enjoy their lives.

    Jesus also became an outspoken opponent of the Sanhedrin and the Roman Empire, which turned him quickly into a revolutionary. He, by actions recorded in several books of the bible, spoke out against the Romans and the Sanhedrin openly, inciting people to disobey and encouraged civil disobedience against both governmental bodies.

    Jesus of Nazareth was executed for his crimes, but was heralded as such a revolutionary that he reached legendary status among those that followed him thereby turning considering him a god or a son of a god.

    Jesus of Nazareth = Che Guevara
