I also went to catholic school for 12 years of my life and am now not a catholic.
This is what i think about Jesus' miracle of feeding all the people with 3 loaves of bread and 2 fish.
Think about this. If you are going to go watch Jesus give a speech or lecture or whatever for about a days length, i think i would bring some food along with me. All Jesus had to do was simply tell the people to share their food. I think I would listen to Jesus if he told me to share my food.

So, you are saying that this man who healed the blind, had aloe on his hands, and there were all these other crazy coincidences, i dont know how you explain him raising Lazarus from the dead, but he had all these other crazy things happen to him WHILE he fulfilled every single prophecy about him? That sounds a little more farfetched then the actual Jesus story.

Well I can have at one single expression: Smoke and Mirrors. Who says jesus moved himself? "No one was near the tomb" "No one was seen".. The fact of the matter is that faith or no faith there is no possible way to be sure. COuld the tomb have contained other ways in? Could the whole deal be a Roman conspiracy?.. All this could in all sound very strange but whose to say that they knew every aspect of Roman law?.. It is known to no one that life was bland and tasteless back then. Jesus predicted Judas' suicide(his betrayal) but WHO IS TO SAY... that there isn't more to the story?.. Isn't there always?Think about this..

Great....see, that is why I say that you should not base your entire faith and beleifs in a book that was written 2000 years ago!
Why can't people beleive in NOW, in spirituality of unconditional love and trust that voice inside them!!!! Not a an old book!

Or the fact that we humans have no powers, that we cannot do anything that jesus can do....we all have the power.

The gospels are not BAD! They are misunderstood! Jesus is the son of god AS WELL as everybody else! That limits us to (I'm just a limited human)
