2. Christmas in Beth- Lechem

Tourist scared off ? Well what do the Palestinians expect ? Christians do not enjoy being welcomed to Beth-Lechem with a knife at their throat !
3. #1 Murray in Bklyn: I disagree with yr assunmption !
miriam ,   israel   (12.22.15)
Jesus did exist - some proof might be the painting of the Last Supper. He is a Jew and is worshiped by Christians. As far as I am concerned, that is saying a lot. He rightfully belongs to us !
4. #3 How does a painting from the 15th century prove anything?
Murray the K ,   Brooklyn, NY   (12.22.15)
Jesus is a literary and cultural myth? Everything you know about the mythical being has no basis in physical factuality but is a man made made up literary and mystical fantasy.
5. @ #3 - Miriam

"The Last Supper" was painted by Leonardo da Vinci between 1495 and 1498. It was commissioned by the Catholic Church. To consider it a "proof" of the existence of a person is like accepting the "Superman" comic books and believing there's a man who can fly. Are you that naïve?
