You people should have the fear of God, don't just come here and be blabbing here and there, one thing I know is if it's true this company called ODG AFRICA is fraudulent or a kidnapping route, GOD ALMIGHTY will soon expose them and punish them, but if otherwise, GOD ALMIGHTY WILL punish all the people and the generation of the people saying negative things about them...

Religion / Re: Jesus Never Existed. It Is A Roman Fabrication by Heroclitus(m): 7:20pm On Jun 28, 2023

We know Caesar lived because there are coins dated to his era with his face on them. There are statues of him contemporary to his lifetime.

And we really don’t care about all these excuses for why there is no contemporaneous record of Jesus. The fact is that THERE ISN’T, so why do you accept it?

It’s like me waking up today and claiming that 50 years ago, a miracle worker existed who was the son of God, and then starting a religion based on that claim!

And then a few years later when the religion has permeated society, some writers start to mention the name of this ‘miracle worker’ in their texts, and then 2000 years later, people like you say “See! That writer wrote about him! Sure, he wrote it 80 years after the saviour lived, but it doesn’t matter! It must be true. Praise the lord or burn in hell forever!”


Bro, its obvious you've never read about any historical account...If u did, you'd know that they are written based on rumours, little facts and assumption



Again, every single person who wrote about both Caesars wrote about them after their death, so how do u believe others after account of the Caesars and not that of Jesus

Or u think there were actually contemporary historians who wrote about King Darius of Media the great, King Cyrus of Persia and many other world powerful men like Pharaoh Necho or Emperor Nero

Infact, Tacitus, the most respected Roman historian, was never alive during the days of all these Emperors yet wrote about them

I'll take you seriously when u u decide to write the "World book encyclopedia britannica" and "The Library of Roman History" to question why they accepted all Tacitus account on these Roman Emperors Julius, Augustus, Tiberius, Nero, Pilate(whose execution of Jesus was documented in the Roman history) since he lived around 500+ years after their death

its hypocrisy to talk about not having contemporary historians write about Jesus( even though Josephus wrote it few years later) when Roman Emperors have their history wirtten 100s of years after their death

Cant u go on line to confirm about those three i metioned, Augustus, Quinrinus and Tiberius and check if the biblical date correspond with that of Roman history...Dont be a lazy researcher...

My name and my siggy should tell u i"m not a xtain, I'm just a lover of history and anything Greek

WHY DID NOBODY SAY OR WRITE A SINGLE THING ABOUT ‘JESUS’ UNTIL MORE THAN 50 YEARS AFTER HIS ALLEGED WINGLESS FLIGHT BACK TO HEAVEN FROM A BLASTED DINNER TABLE, YOU THOUGHTLESS PERSON?

THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF WRITERS LIKE PHILO, SENECA, AND OTHERS WHO WERE CONTEMPORARY TO THE ‘JESUS’ CHARACTER, AND NONE OF THEM WROTE A SINGLE WORD ABOUT HIM!

HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE IF HE ACTUALLY LIVED?

Isreal wasnt a world power, u cant expect Seneca to write about him or the Jews...

As a Roman historian, How could u have written about an Israeli who was neither a Ruler nor a govt official ? A jew whom u may never even have heard of, as you werent from same locality as a Roman Historian


Josephus wrote about him cause he was a native to Jesus galilee and since he was the earliest popular Jewish historian, its fair to know why he wrote about their Kinsman even though the accounts he gave were critical and negative as he were never a believer of him ( In fact, Josephus didnt write about the ascension into heaven as he doubted that part himself being a person from the line of the pharisee who hasnt seen such nor believe such before)

As for Tacitus, he was only able to write about Jesus cause as a Roman historian, he wrote extensively on Pontius Pilate and those he ever convicted and since Jesus was among those Pilate ever executed, its fair to know why he wrote few pages about him just as he wrote about others who were executed under Pilate.


Now, The writer of luke, wrote about Jesus childhood being in the time of Augustus, his successor Tiberius and then Quinrinius who was a Gov, and he even specified what year of their reign Jesus did this and that ...forget about luke. how about those emperors and the specific year of reign as accounted for by Luke, are they all not real or not in accordance with the Roman history


Now, the question is why would u disregard Josephus account of jesus which was just few years away yet u believe that of Shakesphere who wrote on Julius Ceasar who lived 1000+ years before him, Not minding the fact that most historians actually wrote about characters who lived before them and everyone accepted their accounts. Tacitus wrote about Augustus who was even far older than Jesus yet they accepted his account of him, same Tacitus that lived after Jesus

Do you call out men that spit men vile things about women or do you like and share their posts? Zonefree and others, do you agree with them? If you do, you're just a hypocrite and you can't complain when women do the same.

Even me I don't side with women that spit extreme things about men. Soifra and jennycray. They are far worse than Coco and Poco, if it's them you're talking about.

Soifra and jenny, I laugh at their posts, because they can't be for for real.

I'm not quick to defend women. That's a lie. I call out both genders.

I'm not talking about Siofra and Jenny, i guess they dont mean it too
Do u know Klass99? Jeez! that one is always coming with strong points like its an international debate for the Einsteins, I'm always quick to scroll over her posts...then poco, you, Magnolia, Persphone, biglittlelois. foodqueen, Uyai, bigfeetbelle and others

He wrote about but he never met him. So he's just telling tales and making assumptions so why should I listen to him??
Atheists are very conversant with history, it's the reason why they are atheists to begin with. Religious people read only their holy books and think they know everthing

You can miss me with your hypocrisy. Christians are experts at cancelling other people's beliefs.
Why was your comment when Christians were burning shrines and destroying artifacts of traditional religions?

Your Argument here is flawed, so cause he never lived in same period as christus, we should assume his account of Jesus isnt true even though most archaeologists are quick to refer to Josephus as their first choice of reference when dealing with Syrian and Jewish history

Plus, Most historians like Herodotus and co wrote on events that happened in faraway lands and in 100s of years before them, Shakesphere
( An English man) who lived barely 500 years ago wrote about Julius Caesar (Roman Emperor) that lived 1000+ year before him yet no one ever came out to cancel out his account, how much more Josephus who lived less than 100years after Jesus death

History and historians have always been like that, if u wouldnt cancel out Herodotus accounts on medo-persia, why would u cancel a Native Jewish account of his own people

Other people (Tacitus, Pliny) wrote about the historical Jesus, The mention of real life historical characters like Augustus, Quinrinius and Tiberius in relative to Jesus era is a proof that his existence was real except if those Emperors never existed of which they did

I don't have a problem with men in general. The way you Nigerian men back home reason is shocking in the 21st century.

You sound like a hater, why did you bring up my location?


I already modified my earlier post showing your location...That was truly too much

At the romance section, you're up there with some popular ladies on this forum who spits vile things about men and as such reading most of your comments sounds/reads harsh

You're always quick to defend women when they are victims in some situations but suddenly disappear when the tables are turned....How can one person not like both the supernatural and the opposite gender? Your thought process is...

Josephus and Jesus didn't live in the same timeline.
He is critical of Jesus because most Jewish people are christophobic.


I agree but they are prolly like 4-5 generations apart...
My point is, the fact that Josephus, who isnt a believer of Jesus wrote about him, although critically, is a proof that he was a real being who existed around 2000+ years ago....So you'd agree he was a real being

That cancels out any doubt about the realness of his character and as for whether other believes being held by most christians is true or not, thats not my business

Mine is just that, Atheists should be conversant with some bit of history first, before coming out of nowhere to cancel other peoples belief...

Why was Lord Voldemort mentioned in Harry Potter if he doesn't exist?

Alot of Jewish people don't even believe in God not to talk of Jesus.

You dont get it...Its not about believing in him. Josephus is a jewish historian who lived in the same century as Jesus, in fact, most of his acount on Jesus' existence were negative and harsh cause he himself came from the bloodline of Pharisee but being an historian first, he had to write evert critical stuffs he heard and knew about Jesus in his Jewish chronicle

Like the other guy said, Pliny and Tacitus are few of the other historians to write about Jesus existence



Its fine not to believe in God, but its not bright to think Jesus, who lived during the era of Augustus Caesar + Tiberius Caesar a roman fiction considering these those emperors were real characters.....Make some little research,ma

PrettyBolu:
Some pride price do not make sense at all. One of my uncles met a woman who is from the east and wanted to marry her. This woman is a baby mama for one wayward guy o. She dated that guy and lived 6 years with the guy before they separated. I do not know what my uncle saw in that kind of woman.

He went to her place to marry her and they brought list running to N700,000. For what? For this expired thing? Our family members that went with my uncle got angry. Argument here and there. The bride pride price wasn't paid. They agreed to meet again.

When they got back Lagos, relatives did a good job at convincing him that she is not worth it. That was how the relationship start going down until they finally separated.

Sometimes you find yourself in a class where you see all these 'Tom boys' I was unlucky to be one of the smallest guys in my class although now I'm 5'10. There was this Ogoni girl who always picked on me and to be honest I always respect my self when I see her, If someone makes a jokes about her and I dare laugh, she gives me this death stare. I was living in psychological torture and I always tell my friends the reason I don't wanna beat her is that she is a girl. I didn't know she bullied me cos she liked me and once we began dating she practically went soft. Instead of telling a guy you like him, you torture him to pass the message.
