    No, that’s, different, you see!

    She wasn’t a surrogate, she was just raped by a ghost who’s also her son, which is of course totally fine and wholesome!

      The mythology of Christianity notwithstanding, people really get hung up on the alleged circumstances of his birth while paying precious little attention to the sermons and practices he engaged in during his life.

      Would that everyone believed the Loaves and Fishes story as influential as the How Mary Got Preggers tale.

        Well personally I’m aware that literally none of it happened, so might as well have some fun about the most insane parts rather than a simple dupe hack 😉

          Abundant evidence of Messiah figures running around the Levant during the reign of Emperor Tiberius. Whether “Jesus” was one guy or a composite, you’re stretching skepticism to assert the Sermon on the Mount as an event that didn’t happened.

            There is evidence of New York existing and there is evidence of spiders existing. Does that mean I am stretching my skepticism when I say I am convinced that Spiderman does not exist?

              I can go to Times Square right now and find half a dozen guys dressed in Spiderman costumes running around. And I can produce a litany of live action video that is significantly more convincing than any artifacts you could produce to prove the existence of Caeser Augustus or Abraham Lincoln or Winston Churchill. Hell, I can even get you video of a guy in a Spiderman costume who is climbing a high rise in Los Angeles right here

              If a video of a guy climbing a building in a Spiderman costume was paired with a handful of comic books, and this was discovered in a sealed vault in the year 4024 AD, what kind of conversation would we be having?
