    This wasn't a question in the first place, but an atheistic argument presented in the Christian thread. I object!

    Foolishness!!

    What has been disproved about the shroud of Turin?? Has anyone claimed it to be fake or real for that matter?? Please do not say things that are simply not researched or true, you may well indeed influence someone here based on falseness (though I highly doubt that).

    Consider that an argument against the shroud being false is that an artist created it through a procedure that did not exist at the time, quite advanced for even themore modern age, if that's what you hanging you hat on than really this is going nowhere.

    Also, you 50 some gods that all share the same story as Jesus is ridiculous, it has already been dispelled. It may interest you to know that the producer himself, when confronted with all the inaccuracies of the movie said it was not meant to be taken as fact. Wow, how easily can one be swayed?

    Honestly, to those that research such nonsense and then state with all authority they "know the truth", open a window and look out of it for a couple of hours. I truly believe you'll have a better chance of finding your answers doing that than typing here, Sheesh!

    That should read an argument against the shroud being real. Sorry.

    No. That is false. Some are similar but none exact and especially for Horus, the more similar characteristics came into being after the advent of Jesus Christ. It is as though writers of the Horus myth plagiarized from the Gospels.

    then there was along time before the gospels were written, and early Christian writers knew of these Gods, So it is logical to assume that these stories were put into the Jesus myth. I don't know for sure but as on scholar said" How thick do you have to be"
    The scholar was right. How thick do you have to be to realize that you need to examine the evidence instead of believing every two bit crank that makes an unsubstantiated claim.

    Now, as I asked someone michaelb before you, provide the evidence. Provide a link to an authentic ancient manuscript or artifact which shows that Horus was anymore than a half falcon half human myth.

    As the scholar said, "put up or shut up."

    DeMaria, those artifacts that you believe in like the shroud of Turin have been disproved you do need to hold on to silly beliefs don't you?
    Not so. The test which had apparently disproved it was later proven to be flawed.

    By the way the another movie to see "the God that wasn't there"
    Why? There's no sense in watching nonsense, unless its humorous or something. And if that's the case, I highly doubt that I'll appreciate this kind of humor, based on the title.

    Sincerely,
