It's funny how you Christians immediately dismiss things that doesn't go along with your beliefs without even thinking about it
Hardly, it's more like when you're well versed in the history of Christianity these futile attempts to discredit the book are akin to water sliding off a ducks back. Do you think the Roman/Christianity mantra wasn't available to any historian over the past 2,000 years??
Jesus was the most documented life, death, and resurrection in the history of the world. Here's a SIMPLE example:
In Mosaic Judaism-dominated Jerusalem Christianity first began to spread like wildfire. It would have been IMPOSSIBLE for that to happen if there was no Jesus, no crucifixion, and no empty tomb. A hostile source, the Babylonian Talmud records Jesus's life and death, and miracles, but attributes them to Him being a magician, not the Son of God.

"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil
Exactly right. It does not say that "money is the root of all evil", it says the LOVE/LUST of money is the root of all evil".
Huge difference, thank you for demonstrating you were wrong originally.

I make sure to commit blasphemy against the holy ghost on a daily basis so that I cannot be saved.
So a death-bed-confessional on my part would be pointless.
It also helped to spread it when the church threaten to slaughter anyone who wouldn't believe.

What are you talking about? There was no "church" in Jerusalem where Christianity started. People were meeting in secret in houses for fear of the Sanhedrin and Pharisees. There was no open "church" to persecute anyone in Jerusalem 2,000 years ago.
Then Christians were savagely hunted and murdered for 300 years under the Roman Emperors. It wasn't until Constantine that Christianity was legalized, and it was the 2nd successor after Constantine who made Christianity the state religion of the Roman Empire.
It's almost like you get your church history from comic books.

Yes, Constantine - the man who murdered his wife and son - great fellow, all around. He still coined his currency with "SOL INVICTUS" His invincible, and "principle" protector.edit on 15-5-2011 by purplemonkeydishwasher because: (no reason given)
