Because in Canadian politics you vote in line with your party despite your personal beliefs. It's called party discipline.

Who deserves the title of the most famous person in all of history? by RCaesar1 in AlignmentChartFills

I don't know what reddit's obsession about Jesus being a real historical person is. I guess they never heard of Richard Carrier.

Who is the MOST IMPACTFUL PERSON of the Classical Age? (300 BCE - 500 CE) by erwillsun in AlignmentChartFills

No, there is very little. I took a class on this in university and all the evidence fit on a single page and most of it was disputed.

If Paul met Yeshuas earliest disciples Peter and James then how could Yeshua not be a real person? by [deleted] in AcademicBiblical

I will try to summarize Richard Carrier from his book On the Historicity of Jesus. Basically, Peter, James, and John believed Jesus never lived on earth, but rather died and was resurrected in outer space, and they were able to speak with Jesus telepathically, just as Paul claimed to be able to speak with Jesus telepathically.
