  • @cris750 i am not saying that the 70 yr cycle does not exsit but your starting date and knolage of how it operates is flauded

  • I could care less if he did or didn't i don't acknowledge him period frankly am tired of hearing about him (jesus) over and over again its sad i have to live in a country that wont shut up about it and leave ppl alone.

  • @Ltaxe1, there is too many biblical evidence on the 70 year theory. 1) Look through Book of Jeremiah,Isaiah and others which states the "70 year captivity". 2) Read Jeremiah's Book of Lamentations saying "WORMWOOD" twice when he witnessed the destruction of the Temple by the Babylonians. 3) Book of Revelation by John mentions "WORMWOOD" a prediction concerning the destruction of the Temple by the Romans! THEREFORE, John and Josephus had the same idea: a repeat of history concerning the Temple!

  • @Ltaxe1 WRONG! The 70 year exile in Babylon! Josephus and others expected a repeat of history!

  • @Pablo113 Makes sense to me ;) Actually, Anakin Skywalker died for our sins! "Nooooooo!!!!" Gets me every damned time...

  • Jesus died for the Sins of a Mud Man & Rib Woman that were given an Apple by a Talking Snake.

  • @cris750 what 70 yr cycle there is no such thing mentioned in the bible the way you are trying to use it. yet more proof that people that dont know what they are talking about should just shut up

  • I don't think its really all that relevant as to whether Jesus actually existed or not. If he did, he was a human being, not the son of god, and certainly did not perform miracles or was resurrected. He may have believed he was, and his followers may have believed it, but he was just a man. Or, he may not have existed, there were many prophets at the time, and crucifixion was common. It might have been a story compiled from the lives of several different men of the time.

  • (8) ....and REASON!

  • FACTS:(1) "Messiah" is meant to be human figure. (2) The 70 year cycle was expected by both Jews and Christians after the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD. (3) Nothing substantial happened in 140 AD! (4) Therefore,the creation of Israel in 1948 is a natural phenomenon. (5) All 3 Abrahamic faiths are false and baseless.(6) The only factor is the MORAL CODES which have been followed by even the ancient Greeks and ancient Egyptians.(7) The moral codes derive from the senses - empiricism.
