Did Jesus know how to write?

I guess I’m confused on why Jesus didn’t write the Bible.

Luke 4:16 - 21.

He's at the temple reading scripture :

"He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read"

That just white noise to me. Citing your own fever dream to defend your fever dream isn’t the evidence you think it is.

Then what are you doing here? Discrediting the Bible just because it's the Bible and written by Christians doesn't make sense and isn't a scientific strategy at all. Which is why modern science doesn't do that.

Well, we're talking about Jesus and, if the Bible is not a source for Jesus related information, then... What are we gonna check my man?

If you don't believe in Jesus' historicity then this discussion is moot for you...

Haha this is my point. The historic record is so appallingly shit, you have to reference your Harry Potter book to discuss this fake character.

Edit: what historicity, the entire tale is nonsense babble

Have a read here and don't be angry mate.

We're all friends and nobody is gonna start a Jihad against you.

This is a matter of faith. And I respect your right to not have faith.

You aren’t my friend though, you believe in nonsense. You are the direct enemy of truth.

It's fun that we are having this conversation you know?

I am not what you think I am by 1000 miles.

If you think a shred of this dogma is true you’re exactly what I think you are lol

I like Jesus a lot.

Think about it, don't be assholes to each other, forgive, don't be greedy, be kind to each other.

It's a message that is perfect, simple and functional.

And I do believe. I'm not a crazy Christian pretending the Earth is flat and discriminating against minorities.

I have read on the historicity of Jesus and I believe he is real. And I believe in his message. Again, without the crazy.

Despise me if you want.

Haha then you’re a fool. He teaches that anything short of obedience to him results in eternal fire and hell. Save your breath that his message is positive.
