These people didn't have science to justify what they saw, and with those 40 years a lot changed. Think about it, how many times a story would have changed between those years. And then even more because the writtings would have been lost or people changed things.
Now, for the people who said you don't need to see God/Jesus to believe him. After he died on the cross he rose again after three days right? Well after those three days Jesus went to meet his disciples and many other people. Over 100 people in fact (it's in the bible) to show that he did actually rise from the dead. Why couldn't he do that now?
Pray for Jesus to appear, will he? No he won't. But, in Matthew 7:7 he said he would answer our prayers. And in Mark 9:23, Jesus said, "All things are possible to him who believes.". Well if it was possible (which is since he showed himself to over 100 people) why doesn't he show himself?
What about God, Luke 1:37: "For with God nothing will be impossible.". So if you pray to see them, you shall get your request answered.
So what are you going to say now? Thou shalt not test the lord? Really so you're going to say don't take the bible literally but then go and take that verse literally? That just doesn't make sense. Then again that's religion for ya.
And for the people who "see" him every day, get off the drugs or go find the proper drugs to help your condition.
Religion is a farce these days. Many leaders are just money hungry people. I still can't believe some people are so dense to believe this stuff. Look at it with an open mind and you will become a better person.
I wrote the
exact same thing last time there was a thread that segosa started.
Except, the gospels weren't actually written until a few hundred years later, not only 40 years.
Segosa: you're right, people are gullible and believe anything they hear in a church. It's this reason why people are terrorists, they listen to a preacher and then become a terrorist and think they'll become martyrs and have 72 virgins waiting for them in heaven.

Only when you have the proper tools to convert it, it is productive (as in plants) in other cases, it is destructive, check the paint of a car, who stood in the sun for years
I honestly don't think you know what you're talking about.
