What gives you such certainty might I ask? It's fairly obvious he's a plagiarized mixture of other deities who didn't exist.

Here lets break this down and show the non facts of your comic book story board
your board states Born of a virgin WRONG
In the Hebrew world of Jesus, a woman does not lose her virginity because she marries. A woman only loses her virginity through unfaithfulness. Hence, Anna a prophetess who was widowed (in the book of Luke) was still called a virgin even though she was married. She was not a Virgin the sense that we today think of a virgin.
Christ was conceived through Immaculate conception
Your story board states Born on Dec 25th.
Was he really born on Dec 25th NO
Was Jesus born on December 25? There is no evidence for this date. So then, who decided that Jesus' birth would be celebrated on that date? The early Christian church did not celebrate Jesus' birth. It wasn't until A.D. 440 that the church officially proclaimed December 25 as the birth of Christ. This was not based on any religious evidence but on a pagan feast. Saturnalia was a tradition inherited by the Roman pagans from an earlier Babylonian priesthood. December 25 was used as a celebration of the birthday of the sun god. It was observed near the winter solstice.
As to the star in the East there are lots of stars in the east so who can really say.
He had 12 Disciples
Well he had 12 Apostles but he had many Disciples
Disciples are people who followed him around and listed to his teachings
Apostles went out and spread his word
Dead for 3 days. Well that's how the story goes and it is the leap of faith that allows people to believe this
Resurrected Same as dead for 3 days you have to have faith
Is god something tangible you can hold in your hand no it is a leap of faith
Is evolutionism something you can hold in your hand no it is a theory with a lot of strong indicators that point to it being fact but it is still a theory.
But can you say for sure that God did not plan it that way.
You say well according to the bible the earth is only 6000 years old
Where does it say that in the beginning a day is only 24 hours long?
For all you know it could be thousands of years long.. I don't know what they ment. and you don't know what they ment.
The debate can rage on and on but neither side can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt god existence or non existence. I choose to believe in god. and that's my choice. does that make me dumb.
Only in so much as you "think" everyone who disagrees with you is dumb.
And frankly what you think of me does not matter one bit to me or probably to anyone else. Until you put food on my table a roof over my head and clothes on my family's backs then you really do not matter at all.. other than to the degree that God tells me I should be nice and kind to you.
So have a blessed day and life
God bless you all
