Hi Larry! Ed is right, the Jesus story has nothing to prove it. There is a lot of evidence, but none of it, nor all of it together, is conclusive in the sense of "proof". This is a good thing, because Jesus called us to faith, not science. It is no virtue to "believe" in something that has been proven. Faith in a certainty is no faith at all. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
