How do we know these miracles even existed? There is no physical proof we see today. What if Jesus just made them up?

Exactly. Back then they thought the earth was flat. Anyone could of written the bible. Jesus could just be a fictional character they created.

Actually, they didn't think the earth was flat. And the fact that so much stuff is written about Jesus: Bible, Apocrypha, Roman and Jewish historians, I think shows that he existed, though obviously his miracles and divinity are another matter. And the Bible was kinda written by "anyone." The people who wrote the Bible were generally just average people.

That is quite possible.
Even if there was evidence, religious people have gone to far into this thing to call it quits. The whole idea of religion, and Jesus is pretty delusional.

I've never studied religion before, either then religion class in highschool, but they dont tell you much. so i don't know much about Jesus, i just have my theory for the bible and religion and i tend to stick with it.

If you honestly believe that Jesus made the stories up, when humans wrote them, you're just skeptical out of your mind. I mean, they could have been in on the story, but since no one has disputed the stories of the Bible, what reason do you have to believe they didn't take place?

How do you know George Washington crossed the Delaware River with that famous pose of his? How can you believe anything you yourself have not seen?

Yes, but the Bible wasn't written by one person. Many people wrote accounts of Jesus' life, and these were all compiled into the Bible, the New Testament. Other accounts of his life exist, but were not included in the Bible, and these are the Apocryphal texts. That's a lot of people who might not have even known each other making up very similar stories.

Great prophet for the Christian religion, in no way the son of god.
