Re: Do you ever doubt God's existence?

I've never, at least in my adult life, had any belief in the existence of "god". Gods/religions are man created concepts, designed to "guide" you though life, thanks, but no thanks, I can think just fine for myself.
Take Jesus for example, who if he actually existed (which I don't believe he did) was just a man, no more "special" than billions of other men, past and present.
It may sound pretentious and sacrilegious of me to a Christian, but why would I want to think like Jesus did or pattern my life after a schizophrenic holy-man who's probably a fictive character in a religious novel?

I get not believing Jesus was the son of god but history is pretty set that a man named Jesus of Nazareth did in fact walk the Earth and was crucified.

I've done a lot of research on the actual existence of Jesus, the reality is, his alleged existence isn't even close to becoming a forgone conclusion. My guess is Jesus was a composite of rabbis/holy-men that festered during that period in history. One thing that is certain, the "Jesus" character described in the "New Testament", written 50 to 300 years after his alleged death by unknown authors, is pure religious fiction and/or a holy fairytale.

BTW, Nazareth might not have even existed during the time "Jesus" was alleged to have "walked the earth".
