*wonders who will recoginse the title first*
I was reading an article today about the theorys about the resurrection of Christ and whether it really happened or not. (Let's face it, not bloody likely.)
There was one sentence which said that if the resurrection is disproved, there goes Christianity and I wondered "Why can't these people be content following the example of a really good man? Why do they need to have some bizarre miracle involving God (whoever that is)?"
It would seem that that is what the Jews believe. So it seems I'm closer to Jewish than Christian in my beliefs regarding Jesus Christ. Interesting.
It had to happen. I'm starting to get shat by Chris. Just various things he says/does. At least it's reassuring to know it kinda pisses off Ricki too and she's the boss. Maybe because he's a male and we're females? *shrug*

I never remember). Anyway, the majority of the forgiveness for sins is based upon the death and resurection of JC. although I guess he could still have been the son of God and died without the resurection, allowing for the dying for our sins to still be fine.
I'm so rusty on forming good religious arguments. Like I care, I know what I believe in so it doesn't really bother me :)
