i remember the book...this bit of news just came out:

https://metro.co.uk/2024/06/12/experts-discover-earliest-record-jesus-christ-performing-a-miracle-21020745/

i call it the case, as in proving that Christ existed. there are many sources from Christ's era that referred to Him. i believe that 'case' has been proven.

what compels this is the overwhelming negative comments from readers. yahoo had the same article and most of the comments told me that Christ never existed - no proof. this writing is apprx. 300-400 years after Christ lived - and some 800 years earlier than what was accepted as the Gospel of Thomas, which was about Christ's earliest years.

There were lots of lunatics running around claiming to be the Son of God in that era. Not much different than today.

I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage called the blood of the exploited working class; but they've overcome their shyness now they're calling me your highness; and a world screams "kiss me, son of god".

I agree. I read the Old testament. Almighty Dad has all the traits of a cis white male.
