And which of the hundreds of Christian denominations is mainstream?
He was born of a virgin,He was born in Bethlehem, He rode into town on a donkey,He was beaten to a bloody pulp,
...... so-forth and so-on. I am not going to spend a bunch of wasted time trying to convince a group of God-bashers something they refuse to put their faith in.
Evidence that any of this myth is true, please.

Re: context is everything
Just goes to show how ridiculous quote mining can be.

Re: context is everything
Yes. When it isn't a prophecy, I totally agree with you.
It is important whether it is a prophesy or not. The surrounding words are what makes the statement sensible. Otherwise it is nothing but a quote mine which is the problem with these so called prophesies, they can say anything the reader wants to make it say.
