He can't be dead, for he was never really alive.

God is dead??  Hmmm.  Well, that WOULD explain a lot.

Which God is dead? Depending on which mythology you follow plenty of god's may be dead. I mean, Odin killed his dad.

Santa has been picked up on radar hundreds of times, always on Dec. 24th, of course. God has never been spotted on a 'scope. Therefore...
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

Hm. Is that the concensus? I always assumed that the Greatest Story Ever Told was based partially on actual historical events, and that Jesus was actually a living breathing person at some point. I am not saying I believe in the resurrection or anything, but where did all this shit actually originate?
A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life’s realities â€" all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. -TR

But don't you think they all originate from something? Something that consistent at its origins has to come from some sort of event, no?

I have always assumed this from the beginning of my sorta-Christian upbringing--that religion was akin to a gigantic and longstanding game of Telephone. The story gets bastardized as it gets filtered through people who convey it.

Nice piano cover.  I like it better than the Ozzy/Sabbath version.  Still, it motivated me to play their version again and crank it.

But the beginning of the telephone line can be completely made up. Do you believe Joseph Smith for example? How much of his tale is based on actual events? There could have been a doomsday prophet named Yeshua ben Yussuf. I mean, why not? There were plenty of those, as well as plenty of wannabe messiahs back then (now too for that matter). But for them to be god(s) ... they would kinda have to be god(s), you know?
