this thread would have been way cooler if the title was "Was Jesus A Gay? That's Right, I said A Gay!"
lol.

Was that from Seinfeld? I remember a standup routine Rosie O' Donnell did when she did standup, and it was hilarious.

Makes sense.  To me, that just points to yet another reason why Religion has no place in our society anymore. But meh... that's just my personal opinion talking. LoL Religion is pretty vague word to begin with. But certain beliefs, practices and forms of organized religion need to go. Gay or not, if Jesus was real then he was probably a very cool dude. |

it might have happened on seinfeld, but i was quoting zach galifianakis from one of his old stand up routines. i think he did the joke on late world many years ago. |

I sometimes have the thought maybe Jesus wasn't real, but will be. The story of Jesus is everywhere like someone mentioned about the Greeks and Egyptians having a prophet with almost the exact same story of Jesus, but there is other ancient societies not even close to Egypt, Greece, middle east with the same story of Jesus
I may be wrong but I believe I read that Quatzequatel also had the same story of Jesus. Maybe some of the story of Jesus is a prophecy?

The only thing I get out of this thread is that anyone can interpret the bible however the hell they want to. You may as well title it: Did Jesus invent the airplane? Was Jesus a Headbanger? Could Jesus levitate? Was Jesus a peanut salesman? I'm sure with a little imagination anyone could relate scripture to those things. It's also a sort of lazy speculation because you can't be proven false.

It's also a sort of lazy speculation... Exactly. And just fyi; People keep claiming that no one mentioned Jesus outside the Christian scriptures but that is not true. Two almost contemporary writers DID mention Jesus. Josephus and Tacitus (? I think it was). The Dead Sea Scrolls mention several characters that comport with the narrative we have. "The Teacher of Righteousness" was in opposition to some other guy who was leading the people astray, etc. One reason Jesus' life followed a set script?... well, he did say often that he was doing 'such n such' in order to fulfill the prophecy so that might explain some of that. There were words in both Koine Greek and Aramaic to identify gay behavior. None of those were ever used to describe Jesus. Even the Gnostic writings which ran from mundane to ozone layer type content never mentioned such a thing. Referencing vague descriptions of mystical ceremonies is grasping at straws. |

I know this spiritual teacher who studied Jesus and really believes this is true, actually he believes Jesus is bisexual not just gay. Also that he lived in India and did not die on the cross.

Yes, there is a branch of Christianity in India that states that Jesus came there after he left the middle east and lived there. I believe there is also a group in Japan that states the same thing. Not 'a Jesus' but 'the Jesus'. |
