So you can't think of a "myth" that has risen to
the level of prominence that Jesus has? I'm not
surprised, there is no such example. Jesus has
the prominence He has because He's NOT a myth.
Myths don't rise to that level of prominence,
no matter how hard you work on yourself, to try
to convince yourself that Jesus was a myth (when
there is no other example of such a "myth" that
you can name). Why do you think we're discussing
Jesus right now, and not some other "myth" that
you can't think of?

That's good. A lot of other people use Jesus
as a swear word. Every movie I've watched lately
has at least four or five mentions of Jesus, but
not in a good way.

And working so hard at it, that you had to make
sure you corrected my error -- because that's how
important this is to you, and explains why you're
working so hard (to try to convince yourself).

I'm not surprised. I've noticed that trait (that you
attribute to yourself) among other godless people.

"Care" was your word (just above).

Then how do you know there aren't other people reading

There's a reason the Bible is the best-selling book
in the history of books. It's because many, many,
many people know there's truth in it -- no matter
how much you try to deny it.
