Who was this man?

[Alan McDougall]

The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived
 
“He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. 
He grew up in another village, where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty.
Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. 
He never wrote a book. 
He never held an office. 
He never had a family or a home. 
He didn’t go to college. 
He never visited a big city. 
He never travelled two hundred miles from the place where He was born. 
He did none of the things that usually accompany greatness. 
He had no credentials but Himself. 
He was only thirty-three when the tide of public opinion turned against Him. 
His friends ran away. 
One of them denied Him. 
He was turned over to His enemies and went through the mockery of a trial. 
He was nailed to a cross between two thieves. 
While He was dying, His executioners gambled for His garments, the only property He had on earth.  When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.
Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and today He is the central figure of the human race. 
All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the parliaments that ever sat, all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man on this earth as much as that One Solitary Life.”

Actually he had a wife and children, he didn't die on the cross. He moved to India, died at 107. He was called Imanuel.

of course?  Interesting.  Did you meet him personally?  Did you see everything he did first hand?

Have you done research at all.  Do you know how many times the bible has been changed/rewritten.  I have read the bible and it was an amazing story and a very good read,  THE END.

This is just my opinion.  I have been trying to find answers for a long time and Christianity is definitely not it for me.  I may be wrong later I will except anything that may happen.  But I have seen so called "Christians" do things I wouldnt dare repeat.  So long story short its not for me!

[Alan McDougall]

Guys I am not trying to promote Christianity I just posed a question thats all

[mon9999]

Because of religions, so many people has been killed.. because of religions people have forgetten their devine nature ..because of religions, things like clairvoyance,intuition,psychic,energy work and other metaphysical things had been considered as either demonic,satanic or a bunch of crap and lies by majority of religious believer people.. I'm sorry to say if there is one thing i hate so much in this world!! that's religions!!

[IceCold_K82]

I dont mind religion.  Its the hypocrites of religion.  And they are in every single religion. I have yet to find one person who practices their religion to the letter.  They always let something slip by.  Always

[AndrewTheSinger]

I don't think religion is the problem, the problem is corruption. Corruption of governments, corruption of religion, corruption of science, everything has been so badly corrupted that all we see now is just a filthy and distorted version of the truth that once existed.

[IceCold_K82]

^ I think that is more accurate than anything.
