Mia Love: The GOP's Next Rising Black Political Star

God continually surprises me by continuing to show that there are people who exist and live their lives that I had no idea existed! I had never had the idea that there could be a black woman, having Haitian parents, in Utah, a Mormon, and running for Congress as a Republican!!!! I almost fell out my chair.  I never knew such a human being existed!!! I was wrong. Won't be the last time.  This article is the first I have ever heard of Mia Love. Read the article at the link below:

Debunking Christianity: Did Jesus Exist? An All Out War Is Going On

Threatening Hulk, Avengers Earth Mightiest 203John Loftus wrote a blog post about the war being waged over Jesus' existence. He agrees that Jesus was a living person but does not believe what the Bible says about Him. He points out that he thinks that the argument is pointless because Jesus' historical existence being true does not mean that what the Bible says about Him is true. I agree with that. However I see why some Atheists/Agnostics like Dr Richard Carrier and Robert Price desire to deny Jesus' existence because that means the Bible has to be wrong - all of what we call the "New Testament".  No Resurrection. No point to Christianity.



But the myth that Jesus did not exist is a minority opinion. We have evidence for Jesus. Plenty of evidence. People deny this evidence because it keeps them from having to deal with who Jesus is and our accountability to Him. Also asserting that we know that what the Bible says about Jesus is not something that neither Loftus or anyone could possibly prove. They keep trying, but failing that, they punt to denying Jesus' very existence. Rather sad.
