Not THAT embarrassed. Besides, NOTHING grosses me out more than boogers, and I've had the diaper-diarrhea from a 102 year old man all over my arm, trying to catch him from falling out of bed.

Just a reply to the OP. I didn't read all the posts in between. Even historians who aren't Christian will tell you a man named Jesus, from Nazareth, lived at the same time the bible said he lived, was said to have performed miracles, and was crucified. That article link is jibberish in my respectful opinion and could not stand up to actual documented history of that time. God bless.

J dash. show us documentation verifying jesus' existence from that time.
then you're statement can be considered.
maybe read the posts between next time as I and several others have posted information proving the contrary.

They always want to make josephus their biggest case which I find down right comical. Any of you that are well versed in the subject know what I'm talking about. I know Yogi1 knows what I mean

Duncan Rowhl said: What's different between a spiritual person who follows a religion and someone who is just merely "spiritual" is that many of the latter demographic don't dare place themselves with any onus to defend their position.
The abstract nature of their raw "spirituality" gives them a safe and convenient bet with no opportunity for the other party to raise question to it.
They are often without suggestions and theories of their own but full with opposing critique against religions that in contrast, hold debatable "form".
I agree, and I also think it's a good thing though. There's an alternative to Atheist which is -be oneself- which may be unidentifiably spiritual, and unaligned. The lack of peer support is also freedom from bullyism, and also, and most importantly, the individual is more inclined to engage in communication to facilitate better workflow instead of relying on clichés and prejudices to cordon.

Nothing wrong with being spiritual vs adhering to 2000 year old dogma handpicked ny a political organization for the sake of mass population control.
For instance, spiritual person says, maybe were all one.. Mississippi Baptist says, hate niggers sandniggers and faggots.
See how Christians don't quite hold up to spirituality? Read leviticus and make it nice and spiritual for me...
End rant.

I'm a Christian and I don't 'hate' anyone. That actually would contradict my beliefs if I did. I'm willing to bet one hateful person or a small group of hateful people were behind that Mississippi Baptist quote. Even if it's a large group they don't speak for me. That's not all Christians. As a matter of fact those aren't Christians. They do make real Christians look bad though.

Whoops! Think I'll take it down. Still, read D.M. Murdock if you are intrigued.
Her work has largely been discredited, I don't know of any scholars of early Christianity that take " Acharya S." seriously. She's also very arrogant, and very defensive.

Exactly, and not only that, non Christian historians would also easily discredit her work.

Sources weren't contemporary because they've stood the test of time. They haven't truly been disproven by any means.

Leviticus will inform you who to hate.
Gays, independent women, slaves that don't worship their master as they worship god, sea food, people who wear clothes made more than one fabric...
