EEEURGH! Can't. Resist. Temptation.

You know he was Jewish.
1) He stayed at home 'til he was 25.
2) He went into his father's profession.
3) His mother thought he was God.

Allow me to disagree.

Jesus was Greek.

His mother was a virgin.
His father was God.
He was a victim.

That's because it's spelt faeces (or feces if you insist on US spellings!).

Yeah, I'm in US, so I insist it be spelled the US way. USA!USA! I spelled it wrong, didn't come up as an option.

Jesus was homeless wasn't he? All he did was travel around town to town, living off the kindness of others? How'd he raise his funds? Did he have a patron? Did people send him money? There uis know way he lived off the land. I mean, did he carry around an old fish and a peice of bread and just replicate it when hungry? Drinks were easy...he'd just sanitize gutter water by turning it to wine. But how much wine can you drink? No wonder he died at thirty. If I had come across him begging on a corner I would have beat that dirty hippie.

Now you're making quite the inflammatory claim. The big guy has a religious affiliation? You might as well accuse him of having a bowel movement.

Hey, if he could conceive a son, he most certainly could have a bowel movement.

Besides, the good desert people who once invented the big guy would probably be pretty annoyed with any other people and/or religion claiming him.

I believe to be a Jew you have to have actually existed.

Sophomoric one-liners are cheap, and that level of smug self assurance is typically symptomatic of the very superficial and/or the very young. I could certainly be wrong, but I suspect that you know little about reason and less about historiography.

Oh please. What is the point of debating the culture/religion of a "person" whose very existence is in doubt? In the bible, the character of Jesus is certainly a Jew. Does it mean anything?

Was Darth Vader a Mormon? Was Dorothy Gale a Lutheran?

Wow! Was that sooooo sweet!

The only law written in men's hearts is to kill strangers and eat their brains while throwing feces at other people.

Actually I think monkeys have a tendency to do this when you rattle their cage. ;)

A little bit touchy?

Even though your rude post doesn't merit a dignified reply: I do not claim that Jesus did not exist. I do claim that the historical record is such that existence cannot be assumed as fact.
 
Jesus took his father's job and his mother thought he was God. Of course he was Jewish!
