Historical proof
by Marco Polo on Sep 13, 2007 12:23 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Is there any proof that

1.Jesus existed?

2.He had no biological father?

3.He walked over sea of Galilee?

4.He was ressurected?

5.He was the only son of God(represented by an old dilapidated middle eastern man with grey beard)?

6.'Saint' Thomas came to India in AD 52?

7.That he converted brahmins in Kerala coast and built 7 churches?





Then why did the Central Govt issue a coin to show respect to the adventure of 'Saint' Thomas in India whose only mission would have been to decrese the number of Hindus?

Evidence of christ existance was recorded by the Romans, who inspite of their decadence was very particular of keeping documents and evidences. Chirst being the son of GOD is relevent only to people who beleive in him ( I do)the same for all questions from 1 to 5., others have the freedom of not beleiveing so. The pictures depicted as christ are not hsi images, but made by an Italian hundreds of years after christs crucification. St.Thomas may or may not have come.It doesnt really matter. Christiannity in what ever form was brought to India. Whom he converted ( some say Brhamins, I dont beleive in that)also doesnt matter, it is a relegion to those who beleive in GOD, no caste or creed. Issuing coins, I dont support, does it really convey anything? It doesnt. The goverment can concemtrate on temporal things, they should not meddle with religion.

Dear Marco Polo,

Read the book "Case for Christ" by Lee Strobel in you need proof.
