Correction. "'Belief' that Jesus is God". There is no actual evidence that Jesus was born a virgin or that he was resurrected (spelling?). On the flip side, there is also no evidence supporting that it didn't happen. However, there is also no evidence to disprove that there is a Chinese tea cup floating around Saturn.

If you believe the word of god (aka Bible, a book) is fact, then you just merely "believe" that it is a fact, which doesn't make it anymore true. Like I said in another post. There is only one way to prove that any religion is the truth, and again, most aren't willing to do that prematurely.
Do you believe their is evidence that George Washington or Abe Lincoln ever existed? And Why

I am sorry to say, but I find this discussion amusing .... let's all prove our beliefs ...... must have everything dotted ...... or camparing it to George Washington and the like.

I know where my faith lies because of what it has done for my life. I know who my God is for the relationship that has been built over the years. I am not one who goes into a lot of the voices etc, but I have had amazing experiences I can't deny so I give room that the experiences of others can be true too. Does that make me an unthinking individual. No, I definately have my skeptic inside, and that is what keeps me growing and learning. I don't fear my skeptic, but I don't fear my faith either. They make good companions.

Again, not saying Jesus didn't exist. I am not arguing that.

but i have also learned that i learn best by communicating with those i disagree with. if i only speak to those who agree with me, or read those papers or watch that television show that i agree with- i never stretch my understanding of any topic.
Reminds me of conversations I've had with other guys who've been in the military, especially when there was still a Draft. We all seem to recognize what an expansive and life-altering experience that really was, combat or no, simply by virtue of all the unlikely people that we encountered and lived & worked side-by-side with.... regardless of their educational, racial or economic background. And we've carried that "education" and diversity back into civilian life with us besides, where it also helps broaden our judgement in business, politics and the community.

Whereas now, unless they voluntarily enlist, it's so easy for young men and women to never leave their "comfort zone", of friends, church, family, etc. that only think and talk and believe (and maybe look) just exactly like them! So especially now, in a global marketplace, what do they ever really know (or care) about "the world", outside of their insulated little social, intellectual and spiritual "cocoon"?

Oh yeah, guess I forgot, they learn about it on the "internet"...!

I am glad we have the chance to talk about what we are. I have to say, that there appears to be a great level of respect being shown among the various belief systems that fill this group in the last few threads. We just might be growing.
