This Dvd should air on TV

This Dvd should air on TV regularly. Why doesn't it? SUE the FCC !

  "The God Who Wasn't There - History of the Gospels"  /  (12 min of)

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=696492648668420724

   AND Yeah, that cool Gisburne

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Gisburne&search_type=

   Clever, "I am god"   ..... Hey that's me too '.. GOD AS YOU' !

"I am God. My Godly powers are as real as those of the God worshipped by Christians, Muslims or Jews. Therefore if I am as powerful as God, I must BE God, because only God can do everything that God can do. In this video I demonstrate the power of God (me) in exactly the same way that religious people have been revealing those powers over the centuries - there'll be none of that logical fallacy nonsense here. There's no denying it. I am God." ~ Gisburne

My problem with that video

My problem with that video is that it sounds like they got their information from Zeitgeist. The reason I say that is because they list the same erroneous facts like Mithras being worshiped on Sunday because he was the Sun god (English didn't exist yet back then thus making it impossible for that connection to be made since the link between "son", "sun", and "Sunday" exists only in English, at least to my knowledge).

Also, I prefer Aqua Teen Hunger Force's take on the origin of Christmas Sticking out tongue

Thousands and Thousands of Years Ago...

You don't need to correlate "son" and "sun" for this to work, just "sun" and "Sunday".  Jesus isn't really the "son" of God anyway--he's the Word of God according to the Gospel of John and by some odd logic he's also God himself.

"The whole conception of God is a conception derived from ancient Oriental despotisms. It is a conception quite unworthy of free men."
--Bertrand Russell
