So, was wondering.
What If... (gotta love what if questions).
What if it was found out beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus did not resurrect, nor did he do any of the miracles that was claimed he did.
Would you remain a Christian?

Why would anyone? Christ's death and resurrection is kinda the core of the whole thing.

And that is the point overall.
The whole thing...what is the thing? is the thing the message or the man.

I don't consider his teachings very profound, so if I were religious - there better be miracles!

I've been saying for years that if you truly understand what it is that Jesus taught, and what Christ truly represents, then whether or not Jesus actually walked the earth as a living, breathing human being is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT.
I stand by those words...

Neither, that's the theology.
You're essentially asking if anyone would follow a religion whose theology had been shown to be completely inaccurate. It has nothing to do with Christ or his message, really.

Right...so the Theology would then turn into a Philosophy..and Christ would go from God to Buddha.
Huh?
