He was the only Christian in history.Simple question that Jesus once asked, yet many answer that question differently. What is your opinion?

I don't know where Jesus asked who is Jesus, but the Bible's Jesus said he was God's Son (John 10:36)Simple question that Jesus once asked, yet many answer that question differently. What is your opinion?

I never called it "hard evidence". However, the evidence I cited was in the post itself. You seemed to have missed it. Rome as a known practice, only executed the leader of nonviolent movements and left the followers alone. If it was a violent movement, they executed both the leader and the followers. Since Jesus alone was executed, and not his followers, this would indicate Rome saw them as a nonviolent resistance movement. That's the evidence.Jesus opposed Roman rule, he opposed the polytheism of Rome, he opposed the god status of the emperor.
So your hard evidence of nonviolent resistance is what? Or like me, its belief based of the factors you choose to accept!

Therefore, since every indication is that it was a nonviolent movement, he would not be considered a "terrorist" as you suggested in your post. There was no violence associated with it. Where is your evidence he was violent?

Jesus has nothing to do with Roman religion.A mythological demigod among the ancient Roman pantheon.

No it does not come from how some is interpreting scripture. It comes from historians and academics, who know what Rome did in such cases, with citations available.I see nothing about his followers being captured. And Rome often executed a ringleader to subdue followers.
The indications it was a non violent movement comes from interpreting the bible that way. However to oppose the emperor was a crime.
The question isn't a simple one. There are five distinct versions of Jesus in the NT ─ Paul's and each of the gospels ─ built on three distinct Christologies (Paul/John, Mark, and Matthew/Luke) and three different messages (Paul, Mark /Matthew/Luke) and John), with other distinctions and variations of emphasis as well.Simple question that Jesus once asked, yet many answer that question differently.

But then, I do seem to recall you are of the misguided opinion that all opinions are equal, yours as much as any historian or scholar? Something like that, but I may be wrong and you do respect experts in their respective fields of study and research.
True but it was during the same era where God's and demigods were a big thing.Jesus has nothing to do with Roman religion.
My belief is that He is the Son of God who created Heaven and Earth and all things and the Being we rely on for redemption, salvation and any good thing.Simple question that Jesus once asked, yet many answer that question differently. What is your opinion?
