Third Eye Views

Behind closed doors, many people have always claimed that Christianity was a ‘man-made’ religion.  but on October 19, 2013 some of the world’s leading Biblical scholars will state (and try to convince all) on an open forum in London that the myth is real.  So are you ready to have an open mind to the possibility of this?  If you are, how many people do you know who are not ready?  Click here to read the article.

It’s a very interesting article, but I thought that Bill Maher proved this theory in his 2008 documentary Religulous.  Did people not pay attention because he’s a brilliant comedian?  Also, he’s not the first person to bring this issue to the forefront.  I just wonder how many times this subject matter will be discussed before it is understood that people will believe what they want to believe.

Regardless of what is ‘proven’ I know many people who will still flock to Cathedrals during Mass.  Many people who will continue to light a candle for his or her patron Saint.  Many people who will be in Churches this Sunday to receive the “word”.  When something is deeply rooted into your consciousness and the very fabric of your everyday life, it’s very difficult to break away from it, much less believe that it was never true.  It’s hard to convince people that Global Warming exist, so how are scholars going to convince them that Jesus doesn’t exist?  Read the article and tell me what you think.
