If Jesus were simply human while on earth then there would be no transformation of any individual through encountering him while he was alive or encountering the mysterious Holy Spirit(Holy Ghost) after Jesus was raised.
This seems like a huge leap to a conclusion not supported by any evidence.

Re: Evidence pertaining to unexplained miracles.
And just how would we ever find objective evidence of a spiritual event?
You make it up as you go along

Re: Evidence pertaining to unexplained miracles.
Im thinking that if a guy had just studied church history and observed dishonest televangeliats thwy would conclude that apologetics is all about making it up.
Yes. A lot of it is obviously made up.

I do not support secular humanism.
​
The teachings of Jesus are pretty much the textbook for humanism.
​
The main reason is the anti religious stance.
​
Most secular humanists are neutral on religion.
​
I support a Christian Democracy, if such a thing is possible.
​
No, it isn't possible.
​
I do resist the efforts of those who seek freedom from religion.
​
And this is why "Christian Democracy" is not possible.
