Well monkeys are apparently always gonna monkey, but it's kinda funny since Jesus was a rebel facing the dictatorship of Rome, and funny enough, violence was not the main tool in his kit.

Not true, TBH there are no historical records from the Romans about Jesus. He was not rebelling against Rome, but against the Jews, or better, he used to think differently from them. Pilato didn't find him guilty until he was accused that his God was above Rome, but Pilato did understand it was about religion and didn't care. Eventually, to avoid a revolt, he was crucifixed.

The above is not history, it comes from the gospels.

Your statement contradicts itself.
How can they "not know him" yet condemn and crucify him? Does not compute.....

Two hands working accomplishes far more than a million hands folded in prayer.

You know, if atheist would accomplish more if they would actual try to make world better place instead keep planning to offend Christians and prove that they are wrong for believing in eternal life.
Just saying

A better place, you mean like pushing for equality among all people regardless of race, sexual orientation, religious affiliation or lack thereof? Yeah, Christians are fighting us every step of the way.

Maybe you should put down the sword before suing for peace.

Ehh, I just wanted to be wholesome, you know. I don't force you to believe in my religion, but you can at least let me in peace

The moral systems of religion, I think, are super important. We've raised our kids in a religious way; they've gone to the Catholic church that Melinda goes to and I participate in. I've been very lucky, and therefore I owe it to try and reduce the inequity in the world. And that's kind of a religious belief. I mean, it's at least a moral belief.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates

religion is essentially a set of moral guidelines for those too inept to determine them for themselves... good enough to keep around but not actually legitimate in any way.

but hey, if it helps you treat people better and not fear death then good for you. :)

edit: thought actually it's probably healthy to fear death... it prevents reckless behaviours like those you see from the middle eastern religions.

Those who live by the sword shall die by the sword. Sound familiar?

Once again, there are no records from the Roman historicians, but only from the gospels which were written about 60 years after his death.

Only Tacito drops a line about "Christus" who was given the death penalty by Pilato, but no details about the trial come from the Romans.

If you don't feel open to being criticized, do the thing that's proper anyway and keep it to yourself.

heh well Roman records also paint Caeser as being a pretty awright guy....can you imagine having the Month of Trump every year until the end of time?

edit: ..and besides, my contention is not over whether or not he existed, just on whether or not he was 'just another guy'. MY thinking is that, if there was some person that walked around doing actual impossible acts, that would go 'viral' like nothing ever seen before....and ehh ya it sort of did, but not to the degree that I would expect. It's literally proof of divinity or supernatural existence. heh. Even for back then, I feel the impact would've been bigger.

Why you so rude?
You logic is basically "if I don't see it, it don't exist"
You can't see oxygen too, does it mean that you don't believe in oxygen?
