Why didn't Jesus write a book?

[josephpalazzo]

That way, he could have just told what everyone should know instead of having the worst sources ever.

[SGOS]

I don't think Jesus learned how to write, which is odd considering he could turn water into wine and makes loaves of bread appear out of thin air.

[josephpalazzo]

Why would he need to know how to write? Being God, presto, there's the book.

He was not a scribe and therefore not literate. Oh, and also, he didn't exist.  :-D

[Solitary]

What do you mean? Look at all the evidence He did 40-60 years after He was crucified. And we all know the Romans burnt all their records at the time he was alive. Read the damned bible, it's a very good history book.  :rollin:    Solitary

Ant the fact that, due to bad handwriting, he "came from" a town that didn't exist at the time?  Look at the curtain, not the man behind it.

Jesus Christ man! Everyone knows he inspired it all...except the first part. He wasn't born yet even though it was written after he allegedly died'... It was written by the ghost of Steven King 2000 years ahead of time. :)

You had to spoil the ending?!?

Too bad Amazon.com didn't exist then. It would have been a best seller... oh wait... :-k

I think someone ought to found a burger chain called Bibleburger then sue the shit out of Christians for trademark infringement.. :)

[Colanth]

Prior use, so you can't.  But imagine if someone had trademarked "scientology" back around 60 years ago.  Figure out the next big name and trademark it now.

That's me. Total killjoy.

Illiteracy seems to be a prerequiste for prophecy

Maybe he was just this really cool guy. Wasn't the smartest in class... but everyone just liked him because he made the best tree forts with his carpentry skillz. And all those stories are just exaggerations of cool things he did for people. Like "jesus walked on water" was more like "jesus helped an old lady cross the street. And the reason no one wrote about him in his teens was because he broke out in uncontrolable acne and he hid for a few years.... or he wasn't as cool... you know... becuase of all the acne.

He couldn't read or write.
