“He died, he came back, and now has legions of followers that worship him for almost no reason whatsoever.” - Edward Cullen's similarity to Jesus Christ, amirite?

Twilight sucks. End of story.

How can you be so sure that Jesus was real? Because some book titled "Bible" says so? I could write my own book and start a religion tomorrow and have followers. Religion is someone taking advantage of others hopes and manipulating them in to living a certain way.

oh yeah? did you die for those people? did you preform miracles and save lives? ha, if the only proof i had was the bible, i wouldn't believe in Jesus. Jesus is in your heart, soul, and mind. it's called the holy spirit. he walks and helps me every day of my life, i wouldn't be alive if it wasin't for it. stop running you loud ass mouth before you realize what you say.

uhhh, you've seen this guy?...you witnessed this guy saying that he is dying for eveyone else?...or are you taking the word from the book?...Religion works the same as a placebo...give someone a sugar pill and tell them it is a pain reliever, and it still relieves the pain...Tell someone that Jesus is with them and things that don't usually happen actually happen, Jesus did it.

oh yeah, it's a coincidence that he healed my back in a second flat when i was praying. that he saved me from car crashes and accidents uncountable? you don't know what i'm talking about because you don't feel his spirit from day to day, and speaking in tongues. i'm not here to argue. but don't talk about my religion when you have never experienced none of it.

If someone gave me placebo and told me it was Midol, during my period. I'm pretty fucking sure I'd know it was NOT Midol. No matter what research says.

You'd be surprised how the brain can be tricked.

I dunno. That'd be really obvious.

it is a fact (matter of roman historical record) that Jesus did in fact exist. It is debatable as to whether or not he was also God.

I don't believe in Jesus or any god of any kind, but Jesus was a real person. Honestly, Mary was probably knocked up by some guy and to keep her dad and Joseph from killing her, she just told them it was God's baby. And then Jesus was just a really smart guy who was aware that the world was in a tough time. Everyone was pretending to be the messiah back then.

Two things. One: We have a reason to follow Jesus. Two: vampires don't die, they just transform. You can't make a dead person a vampire. Is this the case with sparkly boy?

i hope you know that twilight isnt really standard vampire material right? although i love the series, stephenie meyer pretty much changed everything about vampires to fit her edward. so what im saying is, yes, vampires are dead. more accurately, they are undead but not alive

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No. Just no. There are reasons why people follow Jesus. It's not like everyone just started believing in him for no apparent reason.

and they're both fake. hahaha

Jesus was a real person. No one disputes that. Ahem I mean no one whose IQ exceeds one hundred.

There WAS a Jesus. There is evidence from non-religious and religious people. Whether or not he had powers has yet to be proven, but there was still a man named Jesus.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Back then Jesus was a very very common name.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

So there was a man named Jesus. Many men, then.

What?!? One is a self-righteous weirdo depicted and romanticized in an overabundance of art and literature and has extremist followers who are willing to commit violence for him. The other is Jesus Christ.

Y'know, I don't believe in Jesus, but you shouldn't compare it to something as awful as Twilight.

Edward Cullen is NOTHING like Jesus. End of story (Edward Cullen is a f***ing sparkly undead but dead thing)

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Wait, i thought thats what Jesus was? I'm totally lost.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Actually there is proof of Jesus' existance aside from the bible, no proof of his assorted miracles or that he was the son of god, but he was a real man, and this is coming from an atheist To the op, it's fair that you don't believe in Jesus, but there's no point to disrespect the beliefs of others, live and let live as you please respectively

people need to just calm down and accept a funny parallel for what it is. pedantry not needed.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

People, come on. Without even getting into the arguements about religion (I do believe in Jesus if you're wondering) Edward Cullen (the sparkly prick) never died. So no your wrong. Also, he doesn't have followers. He has stalkers. Just like how he stalks others. Get it?

If you don't believe in Christ then at least be mature enough to respect someone else's opinion.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If you do believe in Christ, why can't you respect someone else's joke?

It's okay that you're atheist, but don't bash other people's beliefs. At least show some respect.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

(a believer): THIS THIS THIS. I'm SICK of people thinking it's okay to bash other people's beliefs. It's rude, and frankly, it's hypocritical.

Wow. That's not even funny. Read the Bible before attempting to make jokes abt it. U should probly kno what it is. I understand this is a joke, but its not funny, its offensive. Idc that u don't believe in Jesus, who gave his life for u btw, crap like this is not necessary. Hopefully someday before you die ull c how messed up this is and will accept Gods forgiveness before you end up in Hell for not accepting Jesus

Why believe in a random book anyways? It's not like anyone can PROVE that any of that happened. The bible contradicts itself so many times, it's so unreal. For one, it says to "love thy neighbor," but to hate gay people. Then, in one passage: "God is seen and heard", and in another: "God is invisible and cannot be heard." It's one huge contradiction, and I refuse to believe it.

Jeez.. I love how a simple joke (& a funny one, too) automatically turns into a huge religion debate. Everyone take a chill pill, it's gonna be alright.
