Neither side can prove the existence or non-existence of God, but what Christians do have is Faith.

aaah yes Faith - that get out of jail free card...

G&P - so how do you know God exists?

Christian - I dont know, actually I have absolutely no proof, I have faith, therefore thats all I need to say and I cant be questioned any further...

because Faith is hope and without hope there is no charity, all of which exist for all eternity

And it's misplaced too.

I once killed a terrorist holding a young women as a shield. I am sure that young woman believes my action was justified in killing him.

Lucky I'm a good shot too.

How many inches' error margin are there in situations like this?

The stories told about Osiris-Dionysus will no doubt sound familiar. He is the Son of God who is born to a virgin on the 25th of December before three shepherds. He is a prophet who offers his followers the chance to be born again through the rites of baptism. He is a wonderworker who raises the dead and miraculously turns water into wine at a marriage ceremony. He is God incarnate who dies at Easter, sometimes through crucifixion, but who resurrects on the third day. He is a savior who offers his followers redemption through partaking in a meal of bread and wine, symbolic of his body and blood. The Jesus story is a synthesis of the Jewish myth of the Messiah Joshua (in Greek Jesus) with these Pagan myths of the dying and resurrecting Godman.

It is hard for us today to imagine the Jesus story being consciously created, but this is because we have misunderstood ancient spirituality. Myths were not seen as untruths as they are now. They were understood as allegories of spiritual initiation, which encoded profound mystical teachings. Reworking old myths to create new ones was a standard practice in the ancient world.

The conquests of Alexander the Great had turned the Mediterranean world into one culture with a common language. This created an age of eclecticism, much like our own, in which different spiritual traditions met and synthesized. Jewish mystics of this period, such as Philo Judeas, were obsessed with synthesizing Jewish and Pagan mythology. In light of all this, it is actually no surprise that some group of Jewish mystics should synthesize the great mythic hero of the Jews, Joshua the Messiah, with the great mythic hero of the Pagans, Osiris-Dionysus.

None.

I also apologise for my spelling error in that post. I didn't notice at the time of posting.

If he was her husband or brother, she may not agree that your action in killing him was justified.

And what is your basis for calling him a terrorist?
