Jesus isn't black and neither was cleopatra, know your REAL history


Jesus was born in modern day Israel/Palestine. The inhabitants of these areas are not and never were black. Cleopatra was Egyptian which is geographically in Africa, but Africa is a large place, north Africans are not black, neither are Egyptians, they are ethnically Arab. Black revisionists have tried to say George Washington and Shakespeare were black as well. Historical falasies at their worst.

Very accurate statement. ;-) Cleopatra was a Greek by blood, making her lily European fairskin, who's Hellenic Dynasty family ruled Egypt. They were just European colonial rulers who ruled over Egypt. Nothing more. They didn't even speak native Egyptian, this Dynasty made Greek the offical language of Egypt when they ruled.

reply

Great point, greater Egypt was once a Greek Polis as well. Even if she was ethnically Egyptian, she would not have been black, one lok at modern day Egyptians will show that.

No Trompos. Modern day Egyptians are not Ancient Egyptians so that can not be used as evidence. That's like saying that the modern day North American continent is composed of the same racial population makeup as 300 years ago. Not so. Native Americans are now in much smaller numbers than 300 years ago due to European Invasion.


Ancient Egypt was heavily populated and ruled by people of Nubian stock (very Black). Modern Egypt is populated mostly by people of Arab stock due to the Arab Invasion long after Ancient Egypt's fall from grace. Although there are still to this very day Black Egyptians living there.

Egypt was ruled by Semitic peoples as early as 17th century BC. The Hyksos ruled Egypt for 108 years, the Ancient Egyptian Empire stretched from north Africa into modern day Syria and Sudan unless Syria was also conveniently populated by blacks as well.

DNA evidence of ancient Egyptians have shown them to have middle eastern traits. Even if you're right, Cleopatra's linage was Greek as was mentioned already.

jesus was not black or white because he never existed

reply

Even the most atheistic person with any grasp f history or reality would say that Jesus did in fact exist. Those of us who believe Him to be the Messiah believe He still lives, but atheists everywhere believe He at least lived. Roman records prove that He was a man living in Jerusalem, the Jewish historian Josefus wrote of him. Temple records kept by the Pharisees also confirm His existence. You may choose not to believe in His divinity, but to deny His total existence is ignorant and stupid. It's like saying Alexander the Great never existed, or Julius Caesar never existed. Get your head out of your rear.

trompos...what you just is completely innacurate...there is no domcumentation of jesus existing

reply

I cited where you can find documentation of His existence. You're basically saying 'He didn't exist, and I don't care what you say about documentation, I haven't seen it, it's the first time I'm hearing about it, so it must be a lie'. Josephus was a Jewish historian and probably the most well known secular source that mentions Jesus' existence. Then again you may deny the existence of Josephus himself. Hell, why stop there? No one before the existance of video existed. Your great great great great great grandfather never existed either because there's no documentation that I know of that proves it.

Roman records from Josephus, Tacitus, Suetonius, and Pliny the Younger all refer to a man named Jesus. (Josephus being a Jew and a Roman citizen).

The Talmud also refers to Him. Believe what you want but the historical Jesus existed.

I don't know if this argument is good enough though, I mean you may simply counter it by saying "no, none of that is true, it didn't happen" I mean you're such a masterful debater.

No historians of the time mention Jesus. Suetonius (65-135) does not. Pliny the Younger only mentions Christians (Paulists) with no comment of Jesus himself. Tacitus mentions a Jesus, but it is likely that after a century of Christian preaching Tacitus was just reacting to these rumours, or probably talking about one of the many other Messiah's of the time. Josephus, a methodical, accurate and dedicated historian of the time mentions John the Baptist, Herod, Pilate and many aspects of Jewish life but does not mention Jesus. (The Testimonium Flavianum has been shown to be a third century Christian fraud). He once mentions a Jesus, but gives no information other than that he is a brother of a James. Jesus was not an unusual name, either. Justus, another Jewish historian who lived in Tiberias (near Kapernaum, a place Jesus frequented) did not mention Jesus nor any of his miracles. It is only in the evidence of later writers, writing about earlier times, that we find a Jesus. What is more surprising is that academics note that the gospels themselves do not allude to first-hand historical sources, either!

Look I know that you're a stupid person, it's evident in your writing, so I knew you did not write this response. It's better written than anything you've ever produced. Now with that said it is still badly written. It sounds like a wannabe intellectual college student who is trying to promote atheism (the new trend in academia).

So before you start typing to retort to this and claim that you actually wrote this let me post a link to the site you used.

http://www.vexen.co.uk/religion/christianity_nojesus.html

There's your response verbatim (that means word for word). It was pretty easy to find I simply copied the most well written of your sentences (or the original author's sentences) and put it into google's exact phrase search and boom 1 hit, and it's your website. This is not only pathetic but the site asserts many falsehoods. These arguments are weak and have been around for a while. Jesus' existence is accepted by historians much smarter than you or the original author of the site.
To counter these arguments I would say that Josephus' mention of John the Baptist (cousin of Jesus) is very revealing to Jesus' existence. The site admits to a mention of Jesu but explains it away as Jesus being a common name. Yet they mention Jesus brother of James which is a title seen in Scripture (cousin could also mean cousin as the Greek translation allows for). And the fact that historians of the time mention "many Messaiahs" and one was named Jesus just shows the extent you idiots will go to deny His existence.

If you do this in college it's grounds for expulsion, it's called plagiarism. I guess I shouldn't be too worried about you going to college.

"if you've ever taken legitimate world history classes you would no that theres absolutely factual evidence of the Jesus that you speak of existing...stop trying to poison people's minds"

I would NO? And you say you have a masters? Try KNOW. I actually have a degree in...you guessed it, HISTORY! I probably have a masters by now with all the classes I've audited after I graduated. I took a class in Arabic, terrorism, 20th Century Europe, the Middle East, Ancient Law, Philosophy of the Western World, English/History (it was one of those stupid hybrid classes) I also took a whole lot of literature classes too many to count.

As far as "believing in supersition" Newton, Pasteur, Kierkegaard Jefferson, Franklin all the founding fathers really. Yes the founding fathers were God fearing men, Deists are theists, hey that rhymes. Hey the list goes on and on of people much smarter than you who believed in "superstition".

Many of the greatest minds in history were religious men and women, many were even men and women of the cloth. Pope John Paul II was an undeniably brilliant man, St. Thomas Aquinas who revolutionized philosophy all incredibly brilliant, and what's more they also contributed to what you, and all your little atheist friends call intellectualism.

"i have a masters my friend...and what do you have a degree in if you have one??? theocracy "

This actually made me laugh. You say you have a masters then ask what my degree is in, as if "masters" is an academic discipline. Masters in what exactly?
Then you make this little joke about theocracy. I think you meant theology (which was actually my unofficial minor). A theocracy is a government run by a religious body. I'm sure you'll tell me you meant to say that.

My professors were mostly very intellectually honest people though I disagreed with them greatly. My mentor was a man who spoke openly about the historicity of Jesus. You can look him up Dr. Anthony Troncone.
And I don't feel I'm poisoning anyine, you're the one who came in here and left a post unrelated to the subject. You came in and said that Jesus didn't existed, that is poisoning the board of people. You came in with your falsehoods and barged in on a conversation people were having to give an opinion no one agrees with as we are all discussing Jesus' racial profile.

have your ever taken a logic and reasoning class? if you have, once again, you would know that the burden of prove is on proving god exists. you cannot say theres no prove that something doesn't exist and then claim that's prove that it exists. if you can't see that, i'm sorry but i can't help you.

reply

Holy crap, you keep using burden of prove. It's burden of PROOF. "you cannot say theres no prove that something doesn't exist and then claim that's prove that it exists" Again, the word here is PROOF not PROVE. I'm pretty sure your imaginary masters wasn't in English. ANd you're talking about the concept of proving a negative. I understand it fully I wasn't saying that you had to prove God doesn't exist, I was making fun of your retardation, and inabilit to spell properly. God's existence is not a matter of proof for me, it's a matter of faith. I don't need proof, I simply believe. Just like scientists believe that protons, neutrons and leptons exist yet no one has ever seen them. Our universe our very existence tells me there's a God. Read Aquinas, he makes very good arguments.

and then...you pull out the old faith card. you don't need proof, it's faith. that is about the biggest cop out that exists. you can have faith in yourself having the ability to pick up an attractive women trompos, but that doesn't mean you'll be able to find one that's not a pimple-faced monstrosity. or maybe your gay? is that why your so religous? are you ashamed and can't face reality so you needed to live by a crutch which you refer to as faith? how many little boys have been touched in the name of faith??? how many people have been murdered in the name of faith??? (sorry, i know i just launched a personal attack and then trailed off...but thats pretty muich what you do... you rip on me spelling a word wrong, question my degrees, then talk about faith and start naming philosophers).

anyway, i hope you die of aids...enjoy it trompos!

god is a superstition

reply

I asked that you read Aquinas so that you can review his arguments for the existence of God, NOT to make you believe in God, I honestly don't care if you ever convert, I wouldn't preach to you, it would be pearls before swine.

I love how you clutched at straws for spelling error son my part. And is NOT a misspelled word, it is properly spelled A N D it's just that the second letter is capitalized (due to my holding the shift key for a split second because I type to quickly. It wasn't "inablit" it was "inabilit" (if you're going to nit-pick try getting it right) which was a typo, and not a misspelled word, it was a typo, I missed the Y at the end my keyboard probably got stuck. You keep spelling YOUR instead of YOU'RE which is NOT a typo, it's stupidity.

This quote is a glaring example of your sheer stupidity;

"how many little boys have been touched in the name of faith???"

Really? They were molested in the name of faith? I thought they were molested because the priests as INDIVIDUALS were perverts who wanted to molest boys, not because it was a religious mandate. Are you retarded? The child molestation was never done "in the name of faith" you idiot.

I also don't dwell on personal attacks, I destroyed your arguments (if you want to call them that). You not only fail to convince me that you have a masters, you sound like a 14 year old who read 2 or 3 things on wikipedia.

Lastly, faith is not a cop out you idiot. Faith keeps our economy rolling, US promissory notes are not based on anything but a promise that it is worth something, it is this FAITH that we rely on. FAITH tells us that there are atoms, FAITH tells you that there is no God, as you can not prove his nonexistence. You don't have to prove it to me in this argument, but you do have to prove it to yourself in order to truly believe it, otherwise it's a matter of FAITH.

I'm sorry I can't take you seriously when you use words like "spreaded" and "aight" (both aren't even real words).

To respond to your question, European explorers did what black people are doing now, they simply depicted Jesus in their own image. I never said Jesus was white, I doubt very seriously he was, I also don't think He was black. He was/is probably ethnically Arab. He would have a tanned complexion, and dark eyes and hair. If you look at any Palestinian today you're probably getting a good idea of what Jesus looked like. They are NOT black, hate to burst your bubble.

You really have no arguments for me to counter, you haven't presented any. I asked you to explain why faith in the NON-existence of God is ok, but my faith is not. I asked you to tell me why faith in atoms and sub-atomic particals is ok but mine is not. We know atoms MUST exist, we know that if they exist they must be made of something, yet we can not see these things. We know because logic and reason tell us they must be there. When looking at the universe we KNOW God MUST exist. We know that had the earth been just a few degrees off its axis, or a few degrees too hot or too cold, life would be impossible, yet we're here. This is no accident, God is real. You can't prove He's not, you can't prove He is, we're both using faith.

reply

Don’t you need to prove that God does not exist if you are calling yourself an "Atheist"? Your use of logic to discredit him is hypocritical and flawed that is why it bothers me! The key is that you are denying the existence of a God as a possibility with no empirical evidence, just like bible thumper sheep.

What is your theory on existence pugliesechris? You have no idea whether matter and the Universe always were or if some sort of being that’s always been created it all.



Why not just allow him to thump away and follow something? It seems to be a part of human nature i mean 200 people were able to be convinced that David Caresh was God, at least Christianity in most forms is a positive you are just not going to change this side of human nature there are too many of them.

I would hardly call myself a "Bible Thumper". A Bible Thumper is a person who preaches to those who do not want to be preached to, I'm simply having an argument with an obviously stupid person who fancies himself an intellectual after taking one logic class at the local community college. Simply being a person of faith does not make one a Bible thumper automatically.

if you need a crutch like religion it doesn't mean i do to

reply

Evidently I do have to tell you things, because it's apparent that you don't know them.

I said that I don't need proof to tell me God exists, I've said from the beginning that LOGICALLY God's existence is evident. My faith comes from a logical understanding that there must be a Creator. Now you do know the difference between PROOF and LOGIC right? There is EVIDENCE that God exists which adds to the logical understanding, again, there is a difference between EVIDENCE and PROOF. So no I'm not switching any arguments, you would know that if you weren't stupid.

I need no crutch, you obviously need a crutch by lying about your education and trying to disprove a person's faith.

Aparently you've been watching Malcolm X and you got all riled up about it. The old argument that white being good and black being bad is just silly. White people aren't white and black people aren't black. Black (the color) being evil, or dirty is something that has emerged in all cultures independently of one another. This isn't ethnocentric or some kind of European conspiracy. The Japanese have a tradition of speaking of the belly much like westerners speak of the heart, to have a BLACK belly is to be evil, this is why the samurai would commit hari kari or Seppuku (literally translated as belly cutting)they wanted to show that their belly was not black. This was not racially centered it just a basic human dislike of the color black. When things are soiled they are black, when things are pure (such as snow) they are white it's an innate sentiment not a racist one.

Angels are depicted by artists in many ways that are not truthful. The truth is that angels are not human they are celestial beings with no race. They also have no gender nor are they the chubby little babies in paintings, they're fierce warriors not cuddly little babies. Artists simply depict angels and God and everything in their own image, black people often depict angels, Jesus and God as black, Asians as Asian. This is not exactly racially motivated, that is to say that it is not done from a position of superiority. The most famous religious artistic works are from the Italian Renaissance most other artists copy that tradition and hence make their angels white.

there is no logical reasoning for god's existing...just saying their is doesn't make it so. and im sorry, but using faith as a reason is a crutch.

reply

I've given you evidence. OUR very existence, the order of our universe of our planet, the fact that life (ANY LIFE) would be impossible had the earth been just a few degrees off, had their been a slight deviation in gasses in our atmosphere there would be no life. Our universe, our bodies our planet has so much order that there MUST be a design to it. This is all evidence, again, it is not PROOF as proof and evidence are two different things, but you're too much of a moron to understand this.

You also continue to bring up your bogus education, you're the one being defensive. All you do is bring up this "education" and the fact that I don't believe that you have a masters. I don't believe you because your atheist arguments sound as if they come from a combination of Internet sources and some old guy you met at a bus stop once and told you it was stupid to believe in God. I also keep thinking about the time you copied and pasted a response from a crappy website to counter my arguments about the existence of Jesus. That is not the mark of an educated man. That is the mark of a stupid person with no arguments of his own. I can have a very good debate, and intelligent one with atheists but those guys actually do some reading, they even read things they disagree with as I do, You refuse to read Aquinas which most educated atheists do. Another thing atheists I argue with do is respect the opposing person's beliefs, you have no intention of doing that this is a sign of a person who is hurting inside. Christianity, and Christians themselves are fair game for insults God forbid a Muslim or Jew is attacked for their SPECIFIC religion. But that's ok, you keep thinking your way.

do you really think your arguments you just layed out (for the first time by the why) consititute proof? because if the planet was a degree or 2 off at certain times we wouldn't exist is proof? the universe in infinite...the idea that there would be planets without life when there is an incomprehensible number of them is far more unlikely. and what constitutes life to you? almost all of the billions of life forms on this planet would exist whether we were here or not....the reason there is a god is because we are here? humans are some all-mighty beings and not just extremely complex animals???

ill actually toss you a bone for a second...i do agree that christians in our country are picked on more than jews and muslims and it is more accepted. in my opinion they are all horrible and religion in general leads to mostly nothing but problems...but i also appreciate the fact that i can disagree with your beliefs without an angry mob at my door ready to bomb my home.

There you go again with that masters. FIne, you have a masters, but obviously it's not in reading comprehension.

"do you really think your arguments you just layed out (for the first time by the why) consititute proof?"

NOOOOOO! I even made this clear in my post. Here's a quote;

"This is all evidence, again, it is not PROOF as proof and evidence are two different things, but you're too much of a moron to understand this."


Then you ask again;

"because if the planet was a degree or 2 off at certain times we wouldn't exist is proof?"

Again, NO! I gave you evidence, not proof. Surely a learned man of your education can understand the difference between evidence and proof right?

I'd also like to say that it was not I who started with the insults. You came in to this thread stating that Jesus does not exist and did not exist in history. You began with the attacks on my religion without my saying word one to you.

I also haven't said anything about your education other than a response to your pushing the idea that you have a masters on every post. Who are you trying to convince? You also continue to say that you have no reason to lie, yet you doubt my education, I pose the same question to you, why would I lie? I think you would lie because I've wiped the floor with you, because you humiliated yourself by trying to pass off information from a website as your own and I caught you in that lie and exposed you.

What exactly is this alleged masters in, I might ask? I would think that a person with a masters would know how to spell "laid" and constitute" properly, not to mention they would know the difference between proof and evidence, and they would also make their own arguments rather than steal them from a less than reputable website.

I also have no envy of your supposed education, I would be willing to put my bachelors against your alleged masters any day. Forgive me if I sound doubtful, but your writing skills (or lack thereof) and your inability to read and comprehend tell me you're a person of limited intelligence and education.

There is a distinct difference between evidence and proof as it related to this conversation. All proof is evidence but not all evidence is proof. Proof is evidence sufficient to make something true, evidence is simply something that makes things clear or makes them plain. An easy way to make this easy for you is to say that proof shows you something is absolutely true, plain evidence that is not proof can be gotten about things that are not true. In a court of law as your very link eludes to one can use affidavits, witness testimony etc. as evidence witnesses can lie, affidavits can be perjured.

Let's make this even easier with an example.

Let's say you're up for murder. You did not do it, but there can still be evidence presented saying that you did. A witness can lie because he's framing you, weapons can be planted. You could even have some damning evidence like blood of the victim on your clothes. But let's say it was there because the victim had bled on you after being cut 2 days before the murder. Now the prosecution has evidence, but no proof.

Now let's say you did do it. Proof would be a video where your face is visible and you are caught in the act. That would be proof, evidence that serves as proof.

I gave you definet evidence. Any atheist would accept this as evidence and most actually do. This argujment is an intellectual debate, but since you are far from an intellectual you don't get it. I have no proof of God's existence, but I have evidence. To believe in God after you have proof is worthless. It is faith that makes our belief that much more special.

Anyway, you're clearly a person of questionable intelligence. You're just not very bright. I think I'm done with you.

What are you even talking about? Are you retarded? You just come in and leave stupid unrelated posts, go away. You're an idiot.

I'd hate to entertain an idiot's ideas, but NO, that's not how it works. Christian Scientists (that's a Christian sect, I know you're dumb and need extra help, I don't want you thinking that they're Christians who work as scientists) believe in that, but I believe that God helps those who help themselves.

I have no dog in this fight. I stumbled here by accident and, low and behold... there's Trompos! And as much as I hate to do this... since I actually cant stand him on the basis that he's rude, closed-minded and often plain old wrong... I have to defend him.

Fellow atheists... Jesus did exist. There is historical evidence to support this. There is no evidence, however, to support the Christian claim that Jesus walked on water, turned wine to blood, raised the dead, or didn't hose the hooker he paled around with. So you can go ahead an walk all over those superstitions all you like... but there was a Jesus. He's got you there.

Also... I'd like to comment, as an Atheist, on the wonky and waffling arguments made against Trompos. The guy can believe what he wants. Sure, his signature is a little trite and irritating for those of us who find such displays of "faith" bothersome... but does it then follow that we should disrespect the guy and ourselves with unfunny oneliners and poorly-worded attacks?

"God's a myth!" nice... clever.

Christianity gives us so much to go after, and that's the best you can do? Please.

If you're going to be snarky and rude to the guy... at least do so with a degree of wit and style. Otherwise just leave the dude alone. You're making the rest of us look bad.

Turned wine to blood? That's not even attributed to Christ in the Bible, you idiot. He turned WATER into WINE. And I know you hate my display of faith, all of you atheists are the same, everyone should be free to voice their opinion except Christians. Anyway, you should be thankful to Christianity for giving us the foundation of western civilization and thought.

PS: Still praying.

People, calm down. See what religion does? Religion is the cause of more violence then anything in recored history (yes, The Bible too). Get rid of it. Why kill each other over who believes in what fairy tale? Humans are stupid.

Signed,

Josephus did not write of Jesus. He wrote of Jesus's followers. Tacitus, Suetonius, and Pliny all wrote of him from second-hand knowledge. By the time either version of The Talmud was written, Jesus had been dead at least 300 years. These are hardly first-hand sources which are what many historians use to validate claims. Tacitus, for instance, was born nearly 30 years after Jesus was executed. Josephus was born in 37 CE--four years after Jesus's credited death. Pliny the younger wasn't alive when Jesus was crucified, and his Uncle would have been only ten (provided we go by the date of 33 CE, of course) and still living in Italy so he would have been unlikely to have met Jesus. Tacitus was born in 56 CE, Suetonius in 69 CE. The best case scenario for any of those you mentioned is second-hand knowledge.

I have no problem accepting Jesus lived, but please read up more on proof. All of what those you mentioned wrote would be considered hearsay and that's not proof.
