I didn't say he was a follower.  I said he was a contemporary - as in alive during that time.
different meaning, wordsmith

And the council decided which books to use in order to solidify a Christian framework revolving around ONE God. So there were missing chapters, which you call the earlier "Q" gospel.  So until these books are found, we're left with the four gospels.  I hardly think that four men are proof that Jesus existed.[/quote]

You still don't understand that Christianity was monotheistic from the very beginning, do you? You can wordsmith this till you're blue in the face, and talk about how Nicea "established" monotheism (your earlier post) or how Nicea suppisefly "solidified a framework around one God" (your post above). Unfortunately, it's clear from your obvious confusion, in your post above, about basic historical facts involving the role of the Q gospel and Nicea's role in authenticating gospels, that youre still very confused about these very basic facts of history (without even bringing faith into it).[/quote]

Let me be kind in saying that you're a bit slow.

Of course Christianity was monotheistic - for purposes of control, honey bun.  However, I've said - again and again and again (b/c you and your kind have had difficulty in absorbing this fact) that Christianity stems from a polytheistic culture.  It was a way of picking and choosing a god.  A god was chosen, given powers (all from pagan gods), and no one questioned their new god.

I'm tired of giving evidence to support my claims - only to return to find some ridiculous counterargument that has no strong backing.

Love your god, sweetie.

I will love my husband and kids.  I will work hard to improve humanity.  I will live a happy life. But I will not be controlled by an ancient text about some prophet who was born of a virgin and "sacrificed" to open up the heavens for us.

If that makes me a bad person, so be it.

I'm good!
