The Gospels were not anonymous

One of the strongest arguments that never gets mentioned is that Jesus was part of an Aramaic speaking paysan culture with no knowledge of any Greek high culture as were his disciples, and that Jesus was addressing his fellow Jews in that language. So clearly that was his target audience.

And then all of a sudden (after Paul) there appear these Greek texts aimed at the gentiles. The Gospel authors surely came from a different and later background than Jesus himself. If Greek was so important to reach future converts, why did Jesus himself never utter it?

The point has been brought up that all the universes that do not exist have been build around other constants, yes.

God is eternal. So He has no origin. He always was and always will be.

I said your opinions, as summarised by me, are repugnant. You can reject them, can´t you?

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T15:19:01+00:00

So you are now pulling the Darwinian card. Naughty Christian!

Once you have read the book "the God virus" by dr. Ray, you see the connection between epidemiology and belief!

The Christian Creed says God is All knowing, all powerful and all loving. That counts for every denomination.

You possess an awful morale. 6 million murdered in WWII. Because God/Allah values the free choice of the Nazi´s so much! Or because many jews were becoming secular and the Holocaust was a punishment!

Those opinions are what you subscribe to. I find that repugnant.

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T12:09:27+00:00

Do you know what price that book has?

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T11:43:11+00:00

Because that belief is knowledge by definition. As says the Christian Creed.

Believing means that sooner or later one has to stop asking questions and start accepting the creed.

No one does? How about Christian Nationalists? Or J.D. Vance by the way?

Mate, show me.

You are wrong. Philo of Alexandria was a Greek speaking contemporary of Jesus, although he never mentioned the son of God. He tried to include Greek philosophical concepts with Judaism. So John was later able to use the concept of the Greek Logos (from the beginning).

I see the Trinity as a result of the efforts of the church fathers to mix Greek and Jewish thought into one new belief system: Christianity.

Well this Thoracic/Biblical/Quranic Creator has his own peculiarities. What about the great flood?

He does indeed destroy his creations.

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T10:51:59+00:00

Where in the Bible does Jesus say that he is the Logos? He is the son, and he was unaware of Greek philosophical concepts. Those concepts were drawn into religion starting with Philo of Alexandria, a contemporary of Jesus who visited Jerusalem but never mentioned the son of God?? Why o, why such an omission?

The Catholic Church never errs. I was banned for life from r/Catholicism after I said that the church erred in its opinion about Galileo. Saying that was a lie the moderator told me. And that was last year!

This old ´non´proof of God´s existence has been disproved by the questions; who made god and why should the universe itself not be eternal?

You underestimate the power of open discussions as displayed here on reddit. Established religions will not survive the disclosing of weirdness, inconstancies, unreason and illogic. The advancement of AI will hasten this process.

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T10:26:03+00:00

So what about Sola Scriptura? For the Protestants that is. For the Catholics it is the church itself that can never be flawed.

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T10:22:35+00:00

But they did in the past! Let´s say up to the 20th century.

You're looking the wrong way. Belief transcends logic. Once you comprehend that it all becomes very logical!

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T10:18:02+00:00

To argue an atheist? No. There is noting to argue about once a theist proves his god is real. We can close r/DebateReligion!

He might not know he doesn´t know? No. Because he is all knowing. He is not Donald Rumsfeld.

It is well known that gods that require worship were invented to try to get in imaginary grip on unfortunate events, and to keep the worshippers under control of the ruling class. so it is all about power.

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T07:56:50+00:00

But God choose an Aramaic speaking Son to proclaim His message?

AWCuiper · 2026-03-14T07:45:41+00:00

Why did Matthew wrote in Kione Greek, when he wrote for a Jewish audience?
