I agree completely and you make an important observation that I had not completely considered.

My theological positions:
-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.
I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

"Seems quite likely that the very Jewish, historical Jesus believed that the Father alone is God, as did his audience."

"The historical method can only tell us what probably or most likely happened in the past. Since miracles are, by definition, improbable, if not in fact impossible, they are methodologically outside the bounds of historical inquiry.
History, then, as a disciple, cannot tell us if Jesus was divine or worked miracles any more than it can for Alexander the Great or Caesar Augustus[...]Any supernatural claim about Jesus can only be accepted as a matter of faith. Again, this is the domain of theology rather than history."

It is remarkable that naturalists/atheists, who have such a difficult time accepting the idea that a person can rise from the dead...are the same ones that believe that life can come from non-life.

Historia,
I consider myself to be a decent debater; but man have I quite a bit to learn from you. I do not refer merely to your writing and knowledge (that included), but your patience.
I wish you were out there more.
I appreciate the defense of my position; and I appreciate that you understand it.

It is my agenda to convince every atheist/agnostic of Lucretius' Hallucination Theory...NOT the resurrection.

Keep up the good work. You're like a champion boxer, never letting up, even for a moment, with this laser tight focus of yours.
