Affecting our senses of meaning in life his conclusion ??

Idio - /Yet when you read the Bible, you see that in the first few centuries of man's existence, they were living to 900+. /

So in the first few centuries i.e. 300 years, people were living to 900+years
They certainly lived at a fast pace didn't they.
I'm convinced the bible was written by trolls.

Locusts -

Thank you for taking the time to write (particularly as English isn't your first language) but you have unfortunately not answered my question. What I specifically asked was – even if a man called Jesus existed when Josephus and the Bible says he did, this does not mean that he was the son of God. If I were to claim that I could raise the dead, what standard of proof would you demand of me and why?

[Slapshot]

I think it matters not for reasons of truth or proof of a deity but because people believe. Individuals of most religions and faiths have an iconoclastic focus of belief, God, Mohammed who ever it may be. For them It matters.

Personally it's not something that I give much thought to.

Locusts, for the third time, Josephus… didn’t … write … it. Think about this. If Josephus believed that Jesus was the miracle man he’s claimed to be, why didn’t Josephus change his religion and embrace Christianity?

Locust /yes that is good question /if you were detected/you have to start from the beginning what would you look for/ clues /some information is very difficult /and to find more clues to support what are looking for /with the information/ by a looking outside the Bible, the supports that Jesus was a man who lived one Earth/ and did miracles /

Philo of Alexandria (Greek : Φίλων, Philōn; c. 20 BCE – c. 50 CE), also called Philo Judaeus, was aHellenistic Jewish philosopher

hese are just two of the clues that Jesus did exist and he did do miracles which are mentioned in the Bible/ researchers very important to improve the knowledge and existence of the Bible
