While I don't buy into that notion, I don't dismiss their teachings as 'the boogey man' either.

Assuming he did exist in the way it was told and not like the fish story where the fish gets bigger with each telling.
I don't follow. If he does exist, what is there to argue? I don't argue that the sun rises in the East. I will argue that it won't rise in the West tomorrow.

Reading your past writings here on OT, it was my sense/understanding that you do not believe in the after-life as this Jesus guy was reported as foretelling of. I recall that you believe that religions are pedalling control because of the 'boogey man.' I took this as your referencing the Almighty to be a made up entity. Is this true so far, and if so, then the whole Almighty entity existing to you, is just myth, no?
