C) Have plenty of reasons to think Chrsitianity, not necissarily Jesus, are bogus. I mean have you actually read the bible and studied Christian history??? So full of inaccuracies, obvious tampering, and contradictions is just amazing.

Can you please give me some specific examples of this? I would sure like to see what you are talking about.

Here's a small one to start out with: Who was Joseph's father?

Matthew 1:16--And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Luke 3:23--And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli.

Kazadoom -- I'm sorry but I am not going to continue this path. I did this with my mother who talks very much like you and it doesn't end well. You won't really see the differences because you won't consider it as a possible truth that the Bible is anything but perfect. There are tons of places it contradicts itself simply because the are individual books and were not originally intended to be bound together. There are also passages that are commonly known to have been added centuries later and are not present in the any earlier manuscripts.

I was not attempting to attack you or your beliefs, I am sorry. But, please, do yourself a favor and take some classes on Christian history at your local community college or if you are already attending a University add one as an elective.
