    ok, but considering that the acts of Jesus make up only what is in the gospels, what I said still holds. I did not say anything about Jesus being the Muslim's savior, yes I know he was a profit, but he was a very special profit to them, second only to Muhammad.

    the Koran talks at great length about the birth of Jesus and his acts. it also talks more about Marry than does the bible. the Koran has a frigen book dedicated to her.

    you mean how the english word virgin being derived from the hebrew word alma was probably inaccurate? alma also meant "young pretty maiden" and it really had no meaning for the clinical word virgin we use today because even women who had kids out of wedlock the standard were said children born of a virgin.

    little political baggage? I guess you did not know that Christians were persecuted since the days of Nero because Nero blamed them for burning down part of Rome.

    hardly what you claim little political baggage.

    secondly, the Nicene council was not put together by Constantine and Rabbis weren't invited because by this time, the delineation between Christians and Jews had been set. there were bishops already, and it was the bishops that were at the meeting, no one else.

    thirdly. the 4 gospels were in fact written down by their authors as the original manuscripts have been dated to the first century AD. their truth value is of course limited because they contradict each other, but they were written to set Jesus up as a descendant of David so as to legitimize him.

    you do not have to make up a bunch of crap about why the bible is a bunch of crap, because for the most part, the new testament is made of original scripts dated from the time the acts were made. most of the stories are embellished to either make a political statement, or to set up the hero as someone special. the only thing we can take from the bible is that these people probably did exist, and that the apostles did a good job of selling the philosophy and legacy of Jesus.

    "alma" the Hebrew word for Virgin means "young beautiful maiden." so I doubt that the translation of what marry was is correct.

    are you stupid? if you could only share files with your buddies, and then only those that you mark as allowed, then you have pretty much locked out the RIAA, much like they are locked out of the situation when you let a buddy borrow a CD or DVD.

    at that point, 6 degrees of separation applies and wam... eventually, everyone has it.

    it is slower to distribute stuff, but it is as efficient as the analog way was.

    how? I think it is sad when a chip that runs the same binaries and OS as another that is 1.4 GHz faster wins in a performance bench.
