Remember this: Even your friends Tariq, Marlon,Mervyn, Allwyn, or even Judas Escariot or Pontius Pilate do not believe you. They may deny Jesus, but will not claim that Jesus did not exist -- and that goes for your professor friend too, who fired up this debate (through the controversial link) just to ingratiate himself with you.

Hello Santosh:
There are no doubts that you do not know what you are talking about. You must have strange “Priest” friends (if they are Christian at all) who believe your claim that Jesus Christ did not exist. Perhaps you need to go back and reconfirm your spurious version above, with your so-called priest friends who did not believe in Jesus’ existence, yet chose to become Priests.
As for your many professor friends, I can understand that some come with their inherent fantasies and fantasized theories –- however cynical those theories might be. I have known quite a few professors too (though most of them were intelligent men of high integrity), but that doesn’t negate the fact that some join the rat race to create a fake name for themselves, on the basis of dubious claims. In the final analysis, it’s nothing but a “rats race” for cheap publicity.
And I hope you aren’t telling us to believe all that you profess in your capacity as a professor. Your subject claim lacks credence or substance, and the rest of what you say is invariably subject to validation -- as in the case of your confusing and inaccurate data that baffled the New Rochelle students/audience.
It appears that your knowledge of history does not extend to the era which Jesus Christ lived, consequently your claims that Christ did not exist.
As for the rest of us let us take a break from discussing with the net jester --Chimbelcho of the civilized and free world -- who prides on impudent demeanor and cannot distinguish between 'blasphemy' and 'respect' for religion.

Thank you. You can call me net-pope, net-mullah or net-swami, but as long as you speak gibberish, you can count on people to set the record straight.
As for your belief/s in the caste system and idol worship, -- you are free to indulge in the above activities, at your heart’s content. I will not dissuade you in your personal beliefs.
