You sound like a creationist because you completely dismiss evidence that you aren't familiar with, don't understand, and apparently refuse to admit even exists.

I don't refuse that 'evidence' exists, I just do not consider it evidence of anything. Any by repeating that I unfamiliar/don't understand does not make it true, it makes you look bad by insulting someone you are engaging in a debate.

So if someone spends years searching for ghosts or the Lockness Monster, how dare I debate their findings? How absurd.

You realize what is being debated here? Not the fact the religion is based on a man made story, not if a small portion of the story is real, but if there is evidence of Jesus existing.

Just a quick look at the definition of evidence: The available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid.

There is no real body of facts indicating that Jesus existed, although there is some early writings, which would barely count even as circumstantial evidence. Although the information is interesting, it certainly does not settle this debate.

Creationist as in Christian creationists? You realize how dumb this is? Someone should post stats of those that believe Jesus was real (with our without super powers) and if creationism is real.

I have said nothing wrong and instead have multiple insults directed at me for saying what we should all know is true. I am also not trying to be insulting. All of us should have a higher standard for proof and evidence and to be able to question things.

Shameful.
