" <more at the link> Many of us agnostics and atheists here have doubts that Jesus ever existed. All of these would believe that all stories about Jesus' mother would be a fantasy also. I see no science basis for this discussion in this forum. I expect this thread will be moved somewhere else and then I will comment on it further. I like the title involving the Assumption of Mary. Of course I laugh at the religious meaning of Assumption and consider the idea more like the word assume, to assume the existence of those who never existed. The whole link article is very silly also IMO. Talking about the genetics of Mary and Jesus when there would be no way to ever check any of that, and I would bet dollars to doughnuts that neither ever existed.

mwc Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 So, according to this guys article, god can simply use selective breeding to remove sin since it's in the DNA? That means god could use a virus for this purpose too. Simply infect the world and remove sin. Kind of makes you wonder why we're still stuck with sin. Though it does sort of raise the question of creating our own "cure" against it at some point and removing god from the equation altogether. Seems risky for god if this is the case. mwc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyGone Posted February 18, 2021 Author Share Posted February 18, 2021 I knew I could count on you guys. I agree. I think that's what caught my eye and motivated me to post it. That same style: blatant naked supposition as premise for your personal propaganda. It's now, today that we have digital publishing and media.. it has become a defacto way to propagandize as never before and is routinely done on a scale as never before imagined. About matters religious yeah, but also 'political', social, etc. Combine that with the eternal human need for a daddy/ruler/god.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
