Did the historical Jesus exist? A growing number of scholars don’t think so

I find it curious why people try to tear down Christianity because it offers hope. Atheism offers NOTHING for suffering, grief and the emotional heartache people deal with daily. Nothing. Christianity offers a reason for this fallen world we are living in. Christianity offers hope that things will get better.

I asked an atheist about the suffering people experience and I got no answer. When you give up God you give up hope. Atheism falsely seems to intellectually answer the question and leaves humanism/moralism in its wake until you hit the emotional wall.

And it was for these two reasons why he was put to death. Even they were smart enough to know that Satan can not cast out Satan.
Satan doesn't exist

Remember, if Jesus body was found we would not be discussing this today. His body was not found and we even have records of him being seen
in the 40 days afterwards.
When the tombs of that town flung open and the undead roamed the streets, it means what "jesus" did wasn't even special. He wasn't the only zombie walking around. If everyone is doing it, then why only jesus do you care about?

"hope" is an empty word you fall back on since its not a unique of a concept to christianity. Its funny that you can't defend the factual inaccuracies of your faith

Atheism offers NOTHING for suffering,
I don't believe in god, therefore what? Does that mean you're immune from suffering? Or alleviating it?

grief and the emotional heartache people deal with daily. Nothing.
what does this have to do with your god existing?
Christianity offers a reason for this fallen world we are living in. Christianity offers hope that things will get better.
Does christianity take ultimate claim on optimism?

I asked an atheist about the suffering people experience and I got no answer.
And?

Thats one person

When you give up God you give up hope.
Optimism isn't limited to christianity.

Atheism falsely seems to intellectually answer the question and leaves humanism/moralism in its wake until you hit the emotional wall.
Seems like you're scared to admit you're just a sack of molecules.

Hope is what people turn to when desiring something or knowledge beyond their means. Its amazing how you try to fight something because you ignore the evidence that already exists. Last time I checked we have not been putting our faith in atheism for the last 2000 years. Or even better If Darwin were correct we should have seen a do-do bird again since the genes necessary for it are currently in our body.

Hold up.

Are you speaking factually right now?

Cause I need to know if I'm being trolled.

The dead rose from the grave when Jesus was crucified. They were not zombies. People came back to life and went back in the city to their families.

of which christianity has no innate and complete claim to.

even further, what does believing in a singular religious story (out of the infinite numbers of them) have to do with anything?

Its amazing how you try to fight something because you ignore the evidence that already exists.
Or the evidence is shytty and circular

Last time I checked we have not been putting our faith in atheism for the last 2000 years.
Ignorance is popular
Or even better If Darwin were correct we should have seen a do-do bird again since the genes necessary for it are currently in our body.
And this isn't how biology works

According to Darwin's theory (I've read his book. Have you????) all future DNA should have been in the original cells otherwise dinosaurs could not have developed feathers. ALL future DNA had to be in the original cells to further evolve. You can't get new information from a current set of information. At least Darwin acknowledged it so why can't you?

Except this isn't what it said. The "undead roamed the streets"

Nor has this ever happened.

Ever.

A 2000 year old document that described exactly that is trolling us all this time later....... yeah ok.

If Jesus body was roaming around they would have gotten it and we would not be discussing this today.

Darwin didn't know about DNA
