LOL. I appreciate the clarification on his last name. So I will modify my answer:

Yes I think there was a person named Jesus who existed who had some interesting ideas on how people should live, worship and treat each other.

No I don't believe or actually disbelieve that He was indeed the "Christ". Being Agnostic, I think it is beyond mankind's comprehension....

Please return my can opener once done with it.

LOL! BTW, the name thing wasn't really directed at you; it's just that it gets used like that...

I just wanna see how many people believe in Jesus Christ?

Only a YES or NO answer, no but this and that's please?
What is this? A debates forum or your own private census site?
Why ask people to simply answer yes or no on a debating forum! What's the point of that?

Anyway, JC, although in all likelyhood a man who did once live, he was NOT the son of god and anyone who belives he is/was, is in my opinion, suffering from self delusion or is simply unable to break the bonds of childhood brainwashing.

Brian: What? Well, what sort of chance does that give me? All right! I am the Messiah!

Followers: He is! He is the Messiah!

Brian: Now, f*ck off!

Man: How shall we f*ck off, O Lord?[/b]
LOL! One of my favourite scenes in the film - probably the funniest film ever made.

I remember at the time that church leaders were outraged that someone should poke fun at their beliefs! Their indignance during a television debate with Michael Palin and John Cleese gave me another laugh.
Personally, I don't see how Monty P's portrayal of religion was any more ridiculous than their own claims. 🙂

yes, and if you beleive he existed but don't beleive he is Christ, then do you beleive what he taught? and if you beleive it, then you must think he is mad too! and if you only beleive some of it, why? why only some?

The Universe that we find ourselves in was most definitely not constructed by a Palestinian carpenter's firstborn son.

No. I interpret your question as asking if I believe that JC is Lord and trust in Him and all that other jollyrot.

I believe that Ghandi and Martin Luther King Jr. existed and had some good ideas, but I don't think they were divine or should be worshiped.
