• Question: Using science, does Jesus actually exist or was he created by the Roman Government and Jesus is really Julius Caeser due to the similarities between the two's lives?

      Sorry xxxsanghveer, I don’t really know much Christianity. I think ancient populations used religion to explain a lot of things that they didn’t understand – perhaps some of the things that a man named Jesus did were explained in the ways that are now written in the Bible.

      The Romans were incredibly advanced in their use of science and engineering- I have a lot of respect for the things they achieved with so few resources in the way of machinery! A great example is the baths where they managed to produce cold rooms in the height of the Italian summer. I can’t really see them allowing another man to take credit for their accomplishments – especially one whom they had so much quarrel with.

      What do you reckon?
