7. sure he did, why not?
anyway, that involved directly only christ's apostles/friends, who had to use physical terms to describe it. The same problem (how to describe what happened) appeared in the bible, which is full of impossible to describe things....the poll really asks if 'you believe the hocus pocus' that religion, by its very nature, seems to contain. It's hard to be a left/liberal/progressive and defend a religion that, to speak plainly, is historically so heartless and vile, so damn sneaky and with so much horror on its hands BUT consider that Jesus KNEW they would do that; they already were doing it (peter cutting guy's ear off etc) even as he went among them, and those were his own followers!
the battle is between good (life) and bad (death)....it involves us all, and we are losing it. Jesus Christ is God, and if you don't believe that, then yall can go to(!)...ahem, anyway, anyone who's human knows that there's something going on in our existence that all the books on earth, much less the church, even much less cnnfox news, explains. Being contemptuous of Christ, who the racist/sexist/bullyboys have been using for 2k years it seems to feather their selfish nests plays according to the asshole's rules when 'peace on earth, goodwill to mankind' isn't such a bad idea, though it is as remote today as it was when Jesus was physically here.....
i mean, c'mon, 'welfare' is thought a bad word
