Richard Dawkins ADMITS He Lied About JESUS

Absolutely right it is a stepping stone .. i believed the narative that the bible and Jesus could be just fiction .. then i found out he was written about by all the different cultures back then in their languages .. he is the most written about person in history .. even kings and queens were not written about as much as him.
Now the kicker was why would they do that if he was a myth ?
And it wasnt like there was paper and ink sitting around or anyone that knew how to use it back then either.
That started me on a 10 year journey trying to debunk or not believe the bible and it saved me.

If the existence of Jesus is so unimportant, why did Dawkins even bother mentioning the issue in his book?

This is the epitome of intellectual dishonesty

[dolmanf]

So someone wrote a book about disproving Jesus, lied about the fact he didn’t exist. That’s the best sermon a man could have! Thanks Dawkins! The Lord surely moves in. Mysterious ways. Amen.

I find it upsetting how he said, basically, “Yeah sure, maybe I was fibbing a little, but it doesn’t matter.” Dude. IT MATTERS.

When you think you need to tell a lie to support your belief, you need to question your beliefs.

[troypender]

If you have to lie to prove your argument, you don't actually have an argument.

[jarrilaurila]

He does not think it is important but decided to purpously lie about it in his book.

[spleen]

If Dawkins lies about something he considers unimportant why should we believe anything else he says?

[danielkrcmar]

I mean that's a huge thing to mislead people about.

Remember when Dawkins got pushed on the beginning of the universe. He said the Big Bang game from nothing, and when pushed, he finally said, "Well, or course there was something!" To that, many in the audience laughed, or grumbled, and he asked, shocked, "Why is that funny?" Answer: because you just lost the foundational point in your debate. I guess he didn't think that was an important question either.

Stunning admission. The fact that he manipulated his words to misrepresent the truth shows that he is not to be trusted.

If someone lies to you once they will lie to you again

[Pedromchlkg]

- "No historian said Jesus didn't exist"
- "There is one or two"
- "Who?"
- "Me and myself".

[TruthWalkerMinistries]

Sounds like Richard needs to write a new book called "The Dawkins Delusion" 😅

[hdunaway]

If it wasn’t important you wouldn’t have lied about it

[Mario.]

He doesn't think it's an important question when it calls him out for straight-up lying.

[shawnglass]

This is one reason why he drove so many atheists toward God. Not all atheists are trying to one up the other team. Many of them actually do care about what is true.

I used to think Jesus was just a made up story in the Bible. Then I found him in roman reports. So I prayed and ask God what part of the Bible was real. All Of IT!!! Is what I heard. Since then I have read the Bible. Been born again. For the path to the father is thru me. That verse changed my ways. Thank you Jesus

[nicholasoneal]

The guy just admitted he was wrong, not that he lied. Huge difference
