 I've heard that theory, the Zeitgeist film discusses it in detail.  I'm sure it has a lot more to do with it than a lot would like to admit.

Here is the essence of Christianity:

John 3:16 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society

   

16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Where does God live?  Who did GOd mate with to have a son?  Is there more than one God where God lives?

and why did he decide that Catholics should be fake cannibals?

That's never made sense to me.

Christianity is nothing more than treating people the way you want to be treated. I don't think people really get that anymore. It's not about going to church every sunday, or praying. It's loving you neighbor.

You've really redefined ADD-
I believe you to be so afflicted with the need for any and all attention that you'll do anything to get it.  You should hire a full time nanny to just stand around and constantly acknowledge you.  Maybe a pat on the head or a tender hug.  Anything to keep the pacifier in.

One place he lives is in the hearts of Christians, beyond time and space also of course. Have you not heard the story of Mary and the virgin birth of Jesus? I believe there is only one creator of time and space though this concept of oneness may be only a human perception.

God lives everywhere............ you ever see something out of the corner of your eye... like in the mirror...and look real quick and nothing there?
GOD

God is a creator.... he makes things up all the time.....  ( The true miracle of Christmas - Joseph believed Mary) - old joke
Mary

The Holy Trinity is ONE GOD....huh? How can a Trinity be one?
Cuz God Says So....

Christianity is based on a real person.. Jesus of Nazareth... Son of God?  We all are according to Jewish and Christian beliefs.. but according to Christianity..Jesus is God while on earth and in Heaven...

1. According to tradition, somewhere beyond the upper atmosphere. Admittedly, that does not narrow it down much...

2. Mary, you know this part, why ask?

3. Interesting fact: No part of the Bible implies that the other Gods are nonexistent...it just says why it doesn't like them. It says "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.", not "You know Baal, Amon-Ra, Zeus? All those guys are made-up." Big and interesting difference between that and what is typically believed today.


But let me ask a question: What are YOU doing about the fact that your parents, yourself, your wife, your children, basically everyone you ever have or ever will love, are already or are going to be wormfood in a period of time that is uncomfortably soon?

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16-May be horse-hockey for all I know. I don't go to Church, or believe the Bible is infallible or anything...but...still...John 3:16 seems like a better deal than Peter Griffin 69:69 "Nah, just kidding kids, ya rot in the ground!"
