I see you've narrowed your religious beliefs as much as your mind. Those are the only options... Christ, Jew, Islam, or nothing?


I believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. That leaves no other possibilities. That is what true Christians believe.

The other option was paganism. I suppose you could be agnostic, but you were very clear in your belief that Christianity is fiction. agnostics are not sure what to believe and are searching.

Now, are you courageous enough to share your beliefs?

I do not judge people, that is reserved for my Creator, but I can point out my perceived flaws with your rationale.

I mean that’s a strong flex, but it probably cost him some serious $$$ in the settlement.

Napoleon would fix appliances for cash. Baw under reported his income to get the govt out his pocket.

I still think it's crazy that he was of above-average height for the time he lived.


Fun fact: the whole “Napoleon is super short” thing came from one painting. By a famous British artist and of course the British HATED Napoleon. So he painted him short and it is the image that stuck, for all time.

No one cares. Have your religious debate elsewhere.

Wrong! That is exactly what you have done here in this thread. Go back and read your comments.

Not only are you judgmental, but you also seem incredibly ignorant. Perhaps the truth that was mentioned was, for some reason, uncomfortable for you?

You also appear to be a bigot and a hypocrite! I don't doubt that your inculcation into Christianity has left you nothing short of brainwashed.

You project an attitude far less tolerant than that of your hero in the stories!

Have a great day.

Jesus Christ……. And this is not debatable


Yep. Nearly 2000 years after his death and he is still talked about more than any other figure in history...past or present. Whether you believe he was Christ in the flesh or not. As well as the miracles he performed and him rising on the third day...again whether you believe or not.

It's highly debatable. We know about him from people that wrote stories long after his death. It's mostly fiction.

You have conflated what judgement is. I am not judging you as a person or a soul. I certainly have the right to have an opinion about your beliefs. I am not condemning you.

According to you, a person of faith is ignorant. I must say that seems hypocritical on your part.

Again, I wonder if you have the courage to share your beliefs. You seem hesitant to do so.

Why do you refuse to share your beliefs, other than your belief that Christianity is fiction?

What “truth” do you believe in?

I didn't understand your line of thinking. All the stories you've read on any notable figure in history was written by people that weren't there.

Whoever you are most interested in is the most interesting figure in history.

Napoleon was 5’6” or so. That’s a giant compared to most of tOT.
