Yeah, I have heard of stories of scary southern hillbillies.
Although what you said about Lucifer meaning bringer of light is interesting, but iirc the name Lucifer isn't used anywhere in the bible.
I looked it up and it appears Lucifer was it's name before it became a fallen angel.
Also when I hear some say that "walking on water is just supposed to be a phrase" I actually think it makes sense considering that Jesus/God is a deity. Although I guess it could be a metaphor to how easily and smoothly he moved through raging waters. I don't really remember the walking on water part of the bible very well though tbh.
These stories were written to entertain/convert illiterate desert people, they needed lots of drama to go over. Also, none of the bible's writers were alive when Jesus was...the first books were written almost 100 years after his murder by the jews.
That's not a surprise. It depends on which writers your talking about. There is two versions of the bible after all which is the old testament, and the new testament(the part where jesus appears).
Do you have absolute evidence that the writers of the bible wrote the new testament before jesus was born?
Also it's interesting how you put "Jesus was..." without mentioning his birth or death. It's almost as if you were terrified of something? Or are you just stupid.
Evidence of anything that happened 2000 years ago is speculative at best. But I certainly do NOT believe the bible is the 'word of God'. There are far too many inconsistencies and contradictions.
Terrified? Of what? A unemployed hippie jew that wore sandals, and bummed food off people? Sounds like half of Marin County.
As for 'stupid', you just showed me your portfolio of reason is empty.
