"Theist": is a Transitional Form In Human Cultural/Cognitive Evolution

Sorry Con: I evidently did not make it clear that using the Bible does not validate his case in any form! Essentially, and again, it is Off-Topic!Con states: "Those sources include first century historians such as Josephus and Tacitus, as well as archaeological evidence of crucifixion fitting that described in the Gospels. So Jesus" crucifixion is one indisputable fact in the Bible."Josephus Flavius and Tacitus are not considered as proof by historians, because they only heard of Jesus from second hand (anecdotal evidence) accounts, they never witnessed Jesus first hand.The "Book Of Mark" is automatically discounted because it is part of the Christian texts and thus part of the deception, the accounts must be from outside the Bible and none of the women that were claimed as witnessing the crucifixion ever wrote any personal account of it, so even if the Bible stated a thousand people witnessed the resurrection, unless some of those women, preferrably more than one, wrote similar accounts that existed outside the Bible, the Biblical claims of having witnesses legally, scientifically and logically ammounts to there being No Verified Witnesses.I really Con: can understand this and thus realize where his entire attack is going completely Wrong! I can write a book claiming to bend iron bars with my mind, get a dozen of my close friends (apostles) also claiming to have seen me do it, to bolster my claim I can add that a I had another hundred and thirty witnesses that saw me do it, but, I know I am writing lies and so do those other friends of mine that are helping me write my book. A lot of naive people may even believe and tell all their friends that I can bend iron bars with my mind. Especially if it was written two thousand years ago, when there were less rational people in the world.Though, these days, I would have to perform such feats in front of test equipment and cameras, plus rational, critical experts and they would expect written accounts of my feats from all those other witnesses that did not get incorporated into my book, and thus I would easily be caught out as a Liar, along with my friends.Anybody could write a book making exaggerated claims with accomplices (disciples) helping my cause and claiming to have witnesses when none really existed.Con: does not appear to understand how easily he may have been deceived, because not one of the people the Bible claims to have witnessed any of Jesus's miracles, his execution, nor his ressurrection ever wrote anything to confirm any of them took place. Outside pieces written by people who had heard, not actually witnessed, but had heard stories of Jesus, is not evidence for his life. Besides, Josephus had no details concerning Jesus, only that he heard he was a good man and had a following and was executed, his account does not mention any tomb, nor guards nor resurrection.Josephus did not subscribe and likely did not believe that Jesus performed any miracles.End of story, because this Biblical argument is about whether Jesus was God, which is an entirely different Debate.We are supposed to be debating as to whether Theism (belief in God) is a passing phase in human culture and cognitive evolution.In other words, are people becoming on average more rational, which caused structural changes in their brains and this is leading to a cultural evolution that may leave Theism behind, to eventually produce a Rational Secular Society in say the next Millenium, where the only belief in God will be at a individual level and just a personal thing, organized religion will be gone and a thing of the past.Bibles, Korans, Upanishads, Torah, etc... will just be Fossils of a past human phaseI'm not saying that belief in the supernatural will cease entirely, but it will be considered by society in general as Superstition and Irrational.Nowdays in many places in the United States, if a person wore a T-Shirt with a logo supporting Atheism, they would be regarded as a heathen, imbecile, etc.I'm stating that likely, some time in the next 200 or so years, maybe even less, like next 50 years, the reverse may be true.Just as it is in some regions of Australia, which used to be like those regions in the US only 40 years ago, nowdays if a person wears a Christian T-Shirt down the street, they would consider him weird or a naive imbecile.So, just as things have changed in these regions, they may follow the same path in the US.Con: demonstrating that Jesus was Crucified on a cross is nothing, we are not even bothering with such argument, because it has nothing to do with the debate.Fact is, there is no proof his tomb existed, nor there were guards assigned to guard it.Con: is unable to properly prove that Jesus was not dumped into a mass grave, as is often how the Romans treated those it crucified. There is nothing in any documentation stating Jesus required special attention from the Roman government. Only evidence that his conviction had nothing to do with the Roman rule, thus did not concern the Romans, so why would they even bother to assign guards?For them to do so, is entirely irrational.If Con: could prove that God truly exists, it may help you prove I am wrong about Theism, but that is extremely, extremely unlikely, because nobody on the planet has ever achieved that.Con's best attack would be to show that Religion is not declining and that US regions will not become completely secular like many regions in Europe, Asia and Australia.Trying to prove the existence of God, unless Con: can obtain bulletproof, scientifically verified or verified by a huge number of verified impartial, external witnesses, con really hasn't a hope of even puting a dent in my Hypothesis. So far con: has failed to provide any real Evidence that my Hypothesis is False!My Hypothesis Stands Unchallenged!
