  What evidence is there for a biblical jesus?

  is there any independently verified evidence that a miracle worker called jesus existed and did the things that the bible said he did?.

  the four gospels were written by unknown authors many decades after the so called events, so can't be considered as eyewitness accounts.

  i think that there may have been a apocalyptic preacher who was executed by the romans and the story evolved from their.

  You can't forget someone if you're with them all the time.

  Halcon:

  Dependent is not the same as equivalent.

  🤦‍♂️ Thanks for demonstrating that you couldn’t properly identify what constituted the false equivalence.

  Halcon:

  You ask this question because you assume that only physical and tangible things are real, ignoring the fact that a person's mind and emotions are just as real as their flesh and blood. The concept of Jesus has nothing to do with a physical man that may have been independently verified by other people or not.

  A tedious false equivalence. The problem (for the apologist) is that “mind and emotions” are contingent on ‘flesh and blood’ and can’t be demonstrated to exist independently of them. So the claim that Jesus “has nothing to do with a physical man” only further demonstrates that it is a delusion.

  About a year ago, when someone said Watchtower would fall because Jesus is tearing it down at Jehovah's command, no one believed it.

  Anyone would be stupid to believe that. Watchtower hasn’t ‘fallen’ and even if it were to, it would be irrational to attribute it to something that hasn’t been demonstrated to exist.

  Rumour 144,000 literal number teaching to be abandoned at Annual Meeting

  say it ain’t so!

  .

  in one sense it’s a no brainer because the figures just don’t add up any more.. in another (negative) sense it’s a no brainer because it’s been fundamental to jws since year dot and might undermine the whole thing?

  Where do you get this stuff?

  Can anyone identify the last time WT affirmed the literal 144,000 teaching in print or in broadcast?

  The Watchtower, May 2024, page 7:

  A limited number, 144,000 in all, of Christ’s faithful followers will receive a resurrection to immortal life in heaven.

  It isn't new that they make a distinction between the number of 'partakers' and the 'actual' anointed people, though there is no method of verification because it's superstitious nonsense.

  FreeTheMasons:

  If a person feels threatened by truth, it's because that "threatened" person's conscience is bothering them.

  No. That's a tedious reflection of your own belief that the 'threat' is 'truth' (though entirely unsubstantiated). It is not actually that the person feels threatened, but they have remarked about the intent of the superstitious threat.

  Playing with words constantly.

  Hmmm... ok...
  

  For if a person called Jesus Christ didn't exist at one stage

  So... smuggling in the superstitious concept of 'Christ' into the mundane fact that there was probably a Galilean preacher named Jesus (or at least an Aramaic form) isn't 'playing with words'?
