If proof as in the Bible, the Bible can't be a reputable source because it wasn't made by eyewitness accounts, and the gospels were written by unknown random people decades after Jesus supposibly lived. There's no archeological evidence either, so it's not dumb at all. No one is trying to be cool, its just legit suggestion.

hmmm its a tie between Hunter S thompson, kurt cobain, sigman freud, timothy leary, albert einstein, budda, jesus, allah, and karl marx.

o yeah and there are numerous records that prove jesus accually existed, i forgot the date but he was born sometime in the late summer in the year 5 BCE. They don't know if he was accually a carpenter but they do know he traveled around teaching his own belifs about religion for three years before he was put to deatth by pointus piolet (sp?) .

not really trying to be picky here, but if you are trying to make a logical argument, at least spell the Qur'an somewhat correctly.
also, the qur'an is also a religious text with no basis in fact, therefore it is also not really credible evidence.

You're right there isn't any archeological evidence that proves he exists. But its pretty damn hard to prove someone existed 2000 years ago since he wasn't even famous until centuries after his supposed death. I'm not one who believes in the divine but I really hope Jesus did exist. Either jesus existed and gave an exemplary moral standard or some author created a character with an exemplary moral standard.

first, fuck you i lost the game!

second, i am not religious at all but that comment he made was just stupid.

third there are MULTIPLE quotes from famous historians, writers and philosophers from that time period that jesus did indeed walk the earth, just do some research, you'll find all you need.
