--- I have read many books on the matter. Crucifixion was a Roman method of execution, and thousands were executed in that matter; we have all heard the stories of the vicious nature of the Romans... When the Romans adopted Jesus' teachings, they attempted to Romanize it, and take all Jewishness out. After all, the Romans hated the Jews, and felt superior to them. So, why is it so hard to believe, that such a people would not corrupt and pervert his teachings for thier own purposes. You must have heard the stories, of the inquisition, and the witch trials, in Germany, and other parts of Europe, when anyone could accuse anyone else, of being a witch; and subject them to torture and burning alive in public. In the name of religion, more people have been killed. What in God's name does any of this have to do with the person who Jesus was? So, this dosen't sound intuitive correct to you, then I could offer no proof, as old themes die hard, and it is impossible to teach something, when one does not care to learn.
