Disgusting Holiday message: Atheists dub Jesus a 'myth' on Times Square billboard

[link to goo.gl]

Well... he IS a myth. No less a myth than Zeus or Odin.

Still, I'm not seeing the point of doing that. It just seems kinda dickish to do that unprovoked.

Gosh thats a strange question..

I love Him because no one can ever love like Him

Its the goodness and the love in Him that I Love

I Love Jesus because He could love like no other..the true unconditional pure warm..eternal love..that loved

didnt love because one was perfect

didnt love because one never sinned

loved despite all that and more

thats why I Love Him

because of how He loved..

Its a tragedy to know that love and to not see it present in this world too often

We as Christians are to try to love like that
I personally think we will never manage this..thats why no one has walked on water since..

But we can try

we are to be known by how we love

we are to try to imitate Him

we are NOT PERFECT

we sin..we make mistakes..we hurt others..we judge..lets not even try to pretend to be like him..

but to at least try to be

he loved simply because He was love

above all the imperfections..sins..mistakes..weaknesses..imperfections..fau​lts..errors..he loved ..and kept loving..he never stopped loving..despite all this..he loved

thats why I love Him

because He was kind and gentle..caring and forgiving..

compassionate and merciful

despite all human frailties he saw in others

he loved

and treated with absolute delicacy others..

against the sin ..never the sinner

thats was is Christ

a myth?

this reality is a myth

the security one tries to find in passing things is a myth

He is Eternal..
he is Love

he is Truth

he is the Way

Could he walk on water after he was nailed up? One would assume the holes in his feet might prevent this.
What other superpowers does he have?
Bullet proof (obviously he wasn't nail or spear proof)?
Xray vision?
Powerful windy breath?
Icy breath?
Inhuman strength?
Sticky climby power?
Invisibility?
Deathray eyes?
Flea-like bounding ability?

And did he wear his loin cloth over his robes?

Very interesting this Jesus fellow!

Anyone who wants to learn more should read the The Egyptian Book of Coming forth by day misnomer(Book of the dead)

Come on, it's just plain intolerant and rude. If they put up a billboard against the Muslim faith they would be crucified. (pun intended).

What exactly do atheist wish to accomplish with this anyway? Have they become a religion unto themselves where they need to propagate and spread their 'gospel'? To not believe is one thing but to try and convert others is quite the other and seemingly outside the parameters of their claims of neither here nor there.

They are on the war path of sorts and this tells me that they are threatened and intimidated by the faith of others. Christians are mandated to spread their gospel at their own peril and ridicule, atheists on the other hand have no rule book nor any preacher who sends them on such a mission of ministry, unless of course they do have a 'leader'???

I chalk it up to a sign of the times and if any are to be lost, they were going to be lost regardless of any 'witnessing' from atheists.

If heaven and hell do exists, nothing like being the ones to lead others to hell. It really should make one ponder their motives.

WOW! CONGRATULATIONS you are a rarity amongst believers from my experience.

I often ask - Are you representing your GOD well? and you answer that question with a loud yes.

Well Done! A very refreshing attitude and correct understanding.

Jesus could love like...ummmm...Hitler. Jesus says: "Believe what I say or when you die my father will burn your sorry ass forever and ever." Jesus says, "Narrow is the road and only a very few get in. Most of the people are on the broad road." Jesus says, "I did not come to do away with the law but to enforce it." Jesus says, "If you do not HATE your father, mother, wife, husband, kids and yourself, you can't follow me."

Jesus says, "If your righteousness is not like that of the Pharisees (who followed all 700 and more crazy Old Testament laws) you cannot go to heaven." Jesus says, "Be perfect, as my Father (who tortures his enemies forever) is perfect." If you call this "love" UNCONDITIONAL I fear you have lost your mind. I think you are making up your own version of Jesus, a version that has nothing at all to do with the Bible version of this same character.

JESUS IS A MYTH. He is no more real than Paul Bunyan or Hercules.

**"Jesus" Was A Fiction On Paper ... A Purposefully Created Con ... A "Bait & Switch" ... Of Using The "Fan Base" Of People Bemoaning The Loss Of "Apollonius Of Tyana" Who Left ... Was Taken Aboard Ship ... Using His Adventures With His Entorage ... His Followers ... As A Base To Work From ... & Then ... Convincing The People Of That Time ... That This "Created Fraud" (Fiction On Paper) Did All These Things !! ... A "Bait & Switch" Indeed !! ... To Gain Control/Power Over The Peoples ... To Manipulate Them ... Any Way They Wanted To !! ... Of Which Still Goes On ... Of Your Day !!

As To "Hercules" (Actually Heracles) ... This Individual Actually Did Physically Exist !! ... Though Over "Time" His Exploits & His Adventures Were Somewhat "Altered/Embellished" !!

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Imagine if you lived in a world where everyone worshiped Paul Bunyan. You KNEW he was a myth for very basic reasons but everyone thought YOU were the crazy one. That is what I am going through. I KNOW that no man ever was born of a virgin or rose from the dead because things like this DON'T happen in this world.

**The Man ... Who Was Later Called "Apollonius Of Tyana" (Amongst Many Other Names (NO !! ... Not "Jesus", "Christ" "Yahweh" Or Any Of Those That Were "Invented" Later !!) ... Was A "ET-Human Hybrid" ... Born Of A Woman (Who Had ET Energies Within) That Agreed To Be "Artifically Inseminated" To Give Birth To This Being !! ... It Is Where The "Virgin Birth" Comes From !! ... As She Did Not Have Sexual Intercourse With A Man ... To Create This Child !!

**Rising From The Dead ?? ... That's Not A Problem !! ... As The Being Was Never Dead In The 1st Place !! ... The Cave/Boulder Thing ... Was "Invented" Later !! ... Actually The One Called "Apollonius Of Tyana" Was Transported Back Aboard An Anunnaki (ET) Space Vessel ... A Scount Craft !! ... As He Was A "Special Creation" & Had D.N.A./ET Genes ... He Was ... One Of The Ones Made From ET Males Of The Rank & File ... The Royalty !! ... & So He Returned Home To Nibiru To Join With His Fathers ... Take His Place Amongst Them !!

Farewell For Now !!

I am not making anything up..the fact is that if He was as you say..you would have withered all tthe ones responsable for His suffering as He did to the fig tree..the fact that He didnt says a lot for Him

He also reprimanded Peter for cutting the soldiers ear..the soldier that came to arrest Him..and healed it

Read the Sermon of the Mount..thats His teachings

I just want to know if this particular athiest group believes Santa/St. Nicholas is a myth too; the billboard appears to select one myth over another, why? Is the particular athiest organization supporting St. Nicholas over Jesus?

Every athiest has different views, just like religitards.

"Jesus" Said Nothing !! ... This "Invented Fraud On Paper" Was Created ... Long After The Fact !!

It Was A Carefully Crafted Plan ... To Control & Manipulate The Peoples Of That Time (& Your Time Too !!) ... To Use The "Fan Base" Of One That Was Considered As "Saintly" ... Who Had Left ... Those Many Years Previous ... & Who Was Bemoaned ... Who Was Loved & Admired !! ... This Person ... Known By One Of His Names (NO !! ... Not "Jesus" Or "Christ" Or "Yahweh" Or Any Other Fictions That Came Later !!) ... Was Known As ... "Apollonius Of Tyana" !!

"Apollonius Of Tyana" Had Many Shrines ... Many Temples ... Many Sanctuaries Dedicated To Him ... All Of These Were Destroyed In The "Rewriting Of History" !!

Such As It Was ... By The Same Ones Who Invaded & Torched The Great Alexandrian Library ... Who Wanted To "Cleanse History" & Rewrite It ... Of Their Own Designs !!

The Only Problem Is ... Certain Works Did Survive The Fires !! ... One Of These Was A Book By Philostratus ... That Detailed The Life & Travels & Adventures Of "Apollonius Of Tyana" !!

The Sayings & Things That Are Attributed To "Jesus" ... Are Of Those Things Changed/Altered ... For Control/Manipulation !! ... Things Added To ... Things Invented ... To Run Peoples Lives For Them ... To Make Them Into Brainwashed & Controlled Puppets/Slaves !!

The Very "Bible" That Is Often Used ... The "King James Bible" ... Was Comissioned ... Was Given To ... To Create ... & Who Was Given This Task ?? ... None Other Then Frances Bacon (Who Was The Real Person Behind The Pen Name Of "Shakesphere" (Though In His Later Years & To Confuse "Those In Power" At That Time ... The Villagers Contributed To The Handwriting ... To Throw Them ... Off The Track Of Discover !!)

Francis Bacon Was The One ... Put In Charge ... To Create The "King James Bible" ... Of Which "Accepted Stories" ... Changed/Altered When Necessary ... were Taken/Stolen Throughout The World ... Even Using Mythology ... & Blending This Is ... To Create An Accepted Work ... To Con The People ... To Use This "Fictional Being" ... & By Carefully Crafted Words ... Thees, Thous & So Forth ... Give Instructions On How To Live One's Life ... Of How "Certain Ones" Felt ... (Of Their "Opinions" & Power Craving) ... The Should Be Dictated To !!

It Should Be Noted ... That The Same Francis Bacon ... Was The Individual That Started Freemasonary ... In The United States ... & It Was Of These Peoples ... That Infiltrated/Took Over The Lodges Of The People Of Light ... The Original Illuminati ... Who Were Thinkers, Scholars, Wise People ... From All Walks Of Life ... That Met & Came Together To Share ... To Pool Their Resourses ... For The Termed "Good Of All" ... For All Life On The Planet !! ... Rather Then Those Who "Ursuped" The Name "Illuminati" ... Of Whom Work Not For Plantary Life ... But For Their Own Enrichment ... Their Own Power, Wealth & Glory !!

So If Ones Are Going To "Love" ... As It Were ... "Love" Not The Fraud !! ... "Love" The Original Being ... Like The Peoples Of Old Did !! ... The Original One !! ... Not The "Carbon Copy Attempt" ... By Certain Ones ... Who Have Been Controlling & Manipulating Your Very Lives ... For Oh So Long !!

Farewell For Now !!

Why not call it Christman instead of Christmas?

Well said. I agree totally and will pray for the people who funded this travesty! Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess!!!!

Geez, why didn't you tell me that 'wiki' had the goods on the truth, Dang! Like mankind hasn't seen the likes of such humans who would wish to "To Gain Control/Power Over The Peoples ... To Manipulate Them ... Any Way They Wanted To control."

Dude, it doesn't take a God or religion to attempt this and sure doesn't seem to have succeeded, as you can speak your mind freely, no? See, this is why God is so good, He, unlike some humans, will allow you to believe these words you penned, although you, nor anyone else, can prove one of them. Not one of those 'copy and paste' jobs was there to witness what we read in the Bible and who ever wrote what you have quoted still had to rely on the 'written' opinion of some other 'man'. Now that is faith, sir.

Christians choose to believe the written, witness account of those who actually lived at the time of Jesus Christ and have 4 of those witness' testimonies, more than even the majority of court cases we see today. And further more, be happy that you can believe such, for a day will come where even the unbeliever will be asked to choose a religion/lifestyle and it won't be God's, it will be another and your life will depend on your answer, where as, God at least still gives you the freedom to live and believe as you choose.

it is implied, genius

Uhhh what? Its a means to an end.

jesus IS a myth...

If the athiests can call Jesus a myth on a times square billboard the Christians can certainly buy a billboard and call Jesus whatever they want to. Calling Jesus a myth is as much a statement of dogma as calling him a God.

Thread: Check this out: Amazing Heated Debate between Jewish Rabbi & Christian Pastor.

How does that make any sense to anyone?

Jesus IS a myth. Whether you believe this myth to be factual or not is another story.

Christmas as celebrated on this world is not very pleasing to those of God. It is fully satanic. Satan Claws, you have the hint in it. No problems with love, but love is not in very much.

You may convince some sheeple by using subliminal programming and repeating the words over and over again..but those of us that think are not so easily brainwashed..we cant all be getting it wrong ..

Plus we have the Shroud..thats not even counting all the historical data that dates back to the First Century..that was very recent timing..The Roman Empire bears witness to this amazing phenomena..called Christianity..that rocked its very foundations..

People died..whole families..fed alive to the lions and wild beasts..we arent talking of families say one thousand years later..this is around the first century..when many people were flocking from Palestine to Rome to escape possible religious persecution because of being faithful to Christ ..these people spread the Good News...many eye witnesses to events..or with direct contact with people that had witnessed the events..

We are not talking about something that happened Two Million years ago..

That's the worst argument anyone could ever use. The fact that a LOT of people are ignorant doesn't make it right. There are many examples of this throughout history.

Jesus was an avatar. Jesus was not the only avatar, others include Buddha, Mohammed, whoever. Despite what you may want to believe, everybody is capable of loving like Jesus.

MYTH
/miTH/
Noun

1. A traditional story, esp. one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically...
2. Such stories collectively.

Look at the definition. Jesus is a myth.

Jesus is not a myth..

Jesus is Love made Flesh

and much more

you can reapeat it over and over again

Jesus is a myth

Jesus is a myth

someone will buy it

doesnt mean its true..

I base my affirmation..that He is Love made flesh... on His teachings..on his life..on his death..on his resurrection..and on the effects it had globally

It changed the world as we know it..forever..

it was never the same after Christ..and no its more than a date on a calnedar..

there is a Before Christ

and an After Christ

because He changed everything..and it will never be the same again

wether you like it or not

Subliminal programming? Look up the definition of the word "myth". Christ fits the definition of one.

The Shroud? That's been debunked hundreds of times.

Christians were fed to the lions? So what, Romans fed everyone to the lions. You all don't seem to remember what happened immediately following the council of Nicea, when the Christians murdered the pagans of Europe and destroyed their culture and places of worship. Some God-loving people you speak of.

Still a myth though, lol.

The Shroud debunked a hundred times? lol..in your dreams..

Any queries Ill be too pleased to try and help you with it..it is an amazing..piece of evidence in my opinion..that can be fully appreciated today thanks to the technology at our disposal..
