Anyone out there think Jesus was an alien?

Please define what you mean by alien.

:)

Actually, that's a good question, rockstar,

Though that theory most certainly transcends over the views of the Catholic Church and the Christian beliefs, there are certain Biblical virtues which have been questioned to possibly be of extraterrestrial being. Here are two websites, one referring to your question, and another which is quite interesting:

Nope, but there again i don't believe he was the 'actual' son of god either (no more than anyone can call themselves sons or daughters of god). I believe he was just a teacher who would probably turn in his grave if he knew what has been done in his name since then.

Good point, PS,

I often wonder how Christ would react to modern issues, corruption, uproar, and the evil media. :si


But as for your opinion about Jesus not being the 'actual' son of God, according to your signature, you should never be taken too seriously, right?  ;) ;D

'too' being the operational word there.  :s2
I've mentioned this before elsewhere on this forum that the christian belief that Jesus was Gods actual son is in fact due to a mis-understanding in translation. As i understand it, in ancient Hebrew to say you are the "son of man" or the "son of god" means that  you are saying that you are a member of the human race, or in english "I'm a ordinary man, just like you guys"
On translation, this phase has been taken literally, giving it the (almost) opposite meaning.

Another good point, and something for me to ponder.

Thank you for clarifying that statement, PS.  :sr

Maybe you have more information or knowledge about rockstar's topic, perhaps? It's becoming quite interesting to me.   :)

rockstar is an idiot. Not because he posted this subject, but because he posted it to mock this forum. If that wasn't the case, he would have been back to provide a little more detail to the question he's really asking.

PS, regarding that 'mis-understanding in translation', almost everyone in the catholic and christian faith agree with the term 'son of man' and 'son of God' as being a member of the human race. There is no misunderstanding there, although I agree that there is in other areas of the Bible. But, if Jesus had meant that He is only just a member of the human race, He wouldn't have said "For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgement unto the Son: That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him"

Personally I'm not going to discuss whether or not Jesus was an alien. The mere question is stupid and the reference to pseudo-science websites to validate such questions are insulting to our intelligence as far as I'm concerned.

*preparing myself for a lashing*

Quite frankly, I really didn't think of it that way, Homer.  :-/

I won't dare to start an argument with you, so I'll just merely apologize for weaving rockstar's distasteful question into an absurd discussion, as it appears to have offended you. Sorry.   :(

Dakoda,
No reason to apologize. Everyone has their own opinion about that which they believe in. I didn't find anything you wrote to be offensive personally, although there may be some who might find it sacrilegious. Since I'm very open minded to different possibilities, I'm not one who finds this offensive.

What I do find offensive is someone making a joke of this forum, like dogboy has. As interesting as the links you've provided might be, the second one has been discussed in great detail a couple of times. HERE  and  HERE.  As far as the first link goes, that's probably best left to other forums that entertain religious jokes.

Homer - Maybe it's a mis-translation in my religious upbringing, because in my personal experience all the christians i have discussed this with haven't realised that. I also forgot my manners - i should of also said that, that is my belief and i in no way wish to belittle anyone else's religious opinions in the saying.

No problem, Homer. I'm just glad we could put that behind us.  :)

Me too :)

Actually, I doubt that Jesus was an alien just as much as i doubt that Jesus ever walked the earth.

However i do believe that the bible was based on a natural phenomenon like aurora borealas and that it was also written by some dilusional gruop of freinds.

Lighten up Homer!  I don't know why you are so angry.  Can you see into my heart?  And Dakoda, why do you fawn after Homer so?  I meant no harm, but came in peace to this forum.  

Judge not, lest ye be judged.

dogman,
I wouldn't say I was angry with you. Irritated or annoyed perhaps, but not angry. As for asking why, you only have to read my posts. Your initial post doesn't belong on this forum, and if you would have stuck around after posting it, you would have been informed of that before it went this far.

You're welcome to the forum, of course, but lets leave religious discussions alone. Granted you asked if a specific person was an alien, and that by itself isn't religious in nature. But by reading the post by ganondorf13, you can see how it can lead to that.

Again, welcome to the forum.

Thanks Homer.  I look forward to our discussions.

rockstar,

Please don't misinterpret my apology to Homer with the word "fawn". I simply prefer to keep from starting conflicts between myself and other members of the forum. :s07

And welcome to the group, by the way!  :st

back on subject i really dont think jesus was an alien but there's always a chance :sj

Alpha, i think Homer asked us to drop that subject....

i know i just wanted to share whati thought even if no one care's :sa :s09

Thanks Alpha.  Glad you got my back.  Peace.

;D

Oh sorry :(

its ok cleo ;D

  What's up with the childish chit chat?   I think that in the past few days the postings are nothing but.   ::)
 I think that if some certain people would like to chit chat they need to go to a chat room.  :s3
 I was thinking about becoming a member, but I think I will hold off and see if things get any better.  :s6

Hi everyone!
I'm new to this website ,
be easy on me here....
Ok finally , someone brings up a topic I pondered many times "was Jesus an alien" Well I grew up Catholic and then later in life became expose to Eastern philosophies through my career in chinese medicine, their outlook is one through a way of cosmology which sort of puts the historic background of my catholic roots on the backburner, I became familiar with energy and cosmology and it all just made sense to me! it opened up a new way of seeing things and I never saw the world or my spirituality in the same way again it was if a door had been opened and I started to combine my spirituality with cosmic energy , so of course I had to reflect on my catholic roots and say what was that all about? I came to the conclusion that people had created the bible and its stories to suit there own need to understand and justify happenings back in the day!
I started to see Jesus as a new age Guru placed here on earth in those primitive times to help us be more righteous and moral, but how did he get so evolved I pondered to myself, How could a man be so enlightened? so I decided that there was a "possibliity" and I stress a "possibility " that there was a chance that a more advanced race had placed him here, why not? I mean look at the vastness of the galaxy we live in and theres thousands more I think we can all agree that there is life out there , who's to say we "the human race " didn't originate somewhere else? also theres the idea of perception which is another topic but breifly I'll add that time and space to us is limited here and our eyes can only see what they are physically capable of seeing! I think that spirituality and physics are all interwoven and our reality is as we see it fit to be!
recently I had a spiritual crisis and I returned to my catholic roots to find answers...and comfort , It was there for me but I found myself stuck in limited way of seeing things so I once again have begun to weave together the ideas of my historic religeuos roots and my new age way of seeing things...I'm hoping one day it will all  make sense but for now I admit I do ponder the thought , "was Jesus an alien" God forgive me if I'm wrong!  
p.s. has anyone any thoughts about a Planet called "Vega" ?

:se
Peace&light,
starstruck

My only thoughts on a planet called Vega is it sounds like a planet for vegetarians ;D

        Actually Homer,  that's Vegga (with 2 g's)
         Hope that helps!   ;D

Thanks KC, that does help.

Veggas are cool 8)

i dont believe Jesus was an alien, but i do believe God may just be one.  

its difficult to know what to believe about Jesus.  any story a couple of thousand years old is bound to be embellished a bit, but i definitely believe that he was a man way before his time.  i have read most of the old testament and all of the new testament and i find myself still wondering if he really rose from the dead or not.  i believe that its a definite possibility, and one you just have to accept on faith.  i pray to him and hope he is really out there listening.  

I'm an alien...this world is not my home.  I was bought with the blood of Jesus(a.k.a the son of God) and was bought for a reason.  For those of you who think I'm out of my mind..you're right.  I'm out of my mind..and into the mind of Christ.

How lovely for you.

Let's hope you're worth the price He had to pay for you.

2 jesus freaks..... what are the chances..  


That's almost funny   :-/

           

       no matter how you spell it.... ::)

JesusPhreak,

Your name explains it all huh... :s2

The Judgment against others in this world saddens me.
"Was Jesus an alien? "
What kind of question is this?
We are all speaking it as we see it...so I will too, and i don't want anyone to bite my head off......
Personally, NO. I don't beleive he was, I agree with what HOMER has been saying since the begining.
So What.....Does this give people a reason to judge me or Hate me?  :s3
I also beleive in SATAN...Was he an alien? How about other Gods and Godesses? If you put one worshipped subject in question....don't you think you should consider questioning them all? I beleive in everything there is to beleive in.
I am sorry if i might have Pi$$ed anyone off. But cant we overlook our differences and all explore our common passion. Its clear we all would not be in here if we all didn't have a love for the unknown...right?....ok i said what i thought....and now i feel better.... :sr please remember.....this is only what i thought...SO DONT BITE MY HEAD OFF!! please excuse me now

Was the Waco Texas guy the incarnation of Jesus Christ?
Was Bob Marley Jesus Christ?
Come on, man!
I like aliens, but not as much to replace the savior of man kind with that bullsh*t!

What an interesting subject ??? I don't know about Jesus being an alien but in some of my researches on the Ark of the Covenant I had come across some information relating to the possible position of one of the arks (it seems there may have been more than one).

Apparently the ark was resident in an underground chamber beneath the rise upon which Jesus was crucifed. The interesting "so-called (taken with a pinch of salt) fact" was not the arc itself but the fact that within rock fissures between the surface and the chamber were ancient traces of blood. When tested (assuming millenia old blood can be genetically tested), the apparent results showed that the blood cells contained only 13 chromosomes. This would essentially mean that the owner of that blood had only one parent. Could this be the son of God given a virgin birth?

Fortunately, half way through reading this I realised that blood cells don't actually have a nucleus, which is where genetic material is stored, so whoever was writing this website, which was sited as documented evidence in some chat forum for one reason or another, was having something of a laugh. Although not a very credible one. They had still managed, however, to dupe quite a large audience into believing their claptrap.

My point here is that established "belief within reason" is a good thing and fundamental to ALL mainstream religions. However, "uncontrolled/untempered belief" is not a good thing, especially if the originator of the central ideals of the belief is an unscrupulous prat! Take Hitler for example. The world would be a very different place if we had all believed in all his ideals. For a start we might all have to learn German at school! (if only he could have actually painted well - the war might never of happened ;))

All this melarky about Jesus being an alien just feeds people with speculative rubbish which can neither be proved one way or another and results in people falling out over what essentialy constitutes nonsense in the first place as people can only speculate.

I realise that this was raised initially in a light-hearted introductory fashion but just the sheer response to this posting is something to be concerned about. Are we not bored yet? :sn

I've just been reading a book on aliens and UFOs and I have read a theory that states that Jesus was an alien, and the star of Bethlehem was actually his space ship, and it also explains why he could walk on water and all that kinda stuff..... whats everyones opinion on this?

Personally as a non believe of Jesus I find it a humourous view, but I don't think it's very likely...

Everyone let me know what y'all think!

Ames xxx

Kinda humourus thing. But I've seen an article in Polish magazine, where a few of the Jesus's miracles are explained (e.g. walking on the water was an mircle made by sun) etc. I'm a very religious guy... but Jesus was a men

I personally believe Jesus was a real person, but not in a religious way, I think he is a historical figure that has had some sort of hype attached to him, that's why I like the alien theory thing, seems to match everything to me, quite funny and all that, I'll try and scan the page it's on for people to read for themselves in a bit if you would all like that?

Ames

Better theory than anything the bible gives in my opinion.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I read it.... but I'm surprised more people haven't come on here and blasted me as the Anti Christ or something!

Because you're not an Anti Christ. For everything must been a reason And in Holy Bible there's written "Jesus Christ, a Man's Son". Any questions?

I thought Jesus Christ was God's son... God's not a man.....

Was Jesus an Alien - no and he isn't God either. Sorry to disappoint you.

Doesn't disappoint me...... I'm a non-believer

But He was born by a Maria...

So he was not the son a man then....
