  "The Da Vinci Code," one of the most widely read books of our time, is partly built around the assertion that the early church covered up important facts about Jesus in order to manufacture Christian creeds. (A Ron Howard movie starring Tom Hanks is in the works.)

  Dan Brown is also the author of Angels & Demons not Carl Sagan as I was told.

  btw

  how is it that jw are not part of the "Christendom",

  the more you think about wt teachings the more contradictory it appears, or is it that i have been out too long now.?

  if jesus was perfect he had to be killed for the story to make sense, but again he could not be killed and STAY dead for 3 days.

  I forgot how wt explained that.

  following the scripture, just like "energy" an spirit can not be "killed", eliminated, minimized or reduced, only transformed, that is why he as a 'human' could perform "miracles"..

  I am afraid that older religious traditions can make more sense.

  Because, silly Apostate, Christendom is Wrong, and the JW's are RIGHT! simple as that! quit asking questions and go back to pioneering. Christendom gets involved in politics and commerce...JW's would NEVER do that, like join the UN or deal in real estate in Brooklyn

  The wt version makes less sense than the christian version. Wt - jesus has no spirit/soul. When he died, finito. His 'resurrection' was really the making of a clone in spirit form. There was no continuation of the earthly jesus.

  It gets even wierder when jws explain how earthly jesus came to be: The 'life force' of michael the arch angel was transfered to the zygot in mary. Try to find out what exactly that 'life force' was. It's a mind bender.

  Another point, when jesus died, why did this 'life force' which had had eons of existence in michael, and continuous existence from there carried on in jesus' 30 yr lifetime, why did it end when jesus supposedly died? It was supposedly out of existence for 3 days, until a new copy of the arch angel w the added memories of jesus was created.

  Sat,

  The 'life force' of michael the arch angel was transfered to the zygot in mary.

  What the second most powerfull spiritual being did from that time until he became 30? specially the 9 month he was inside Mary... boring

  Yeah, Satanus, just what was it that was transferred to Mary's womb? I think this was cloning that took 9 months or so. What happenned to the original? With no continuity, a resurrection is a copy, preprogrammed. What happens to the original if this ocurred simultaneously? It continues to exist till it dies at which point it becomes clear the copy is just that.
