Who is your "Hero"?
- Thread starter WWJD
- Start date
Show me one legitamate historian that thinks he has proven Jesus never existed as a man, and I will find you 1000 who laready proved he did exist - most of them not even religious. Why would you try to disqualify someone's hero anyway? Both definitions describe Jesus on many levels, but it is your choice to believe he is a fictional character if you wish(DonnieF @ Dec. 07 2006,09:44) Not to start anything here but if these are the 2 Definitions i found , how can the lord be one of those?(just curious)
1.a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities.
2. a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model or ideal:
I never looked up the definition... I was just thinking about all the recent super hero movies and TV shows that are on now and wonder who the REAL heros are? Interesting conversation here, nothing more
I honestly thought people would put down "Superman"
People I asked at the restraunt last night said:
1. mom
2. myself
3. aunt
The first one sums it up pretty well. Crucified for those he didn't know.(WWJD @ Dec. 07 2006,13:35)Show me one legitamate historian that thinks he has proven Jesus never existed as a man, and I will find you 1000 who laready proved he did exist - most of them not even religious.

Kinda like our boys in the military - willing to die so that we may live
I don't get your point he was a man for 30+ years.(DonnieF @ Dec. 07 2006,09:44) Not to start anything here but if these are the 2 Definitions i found , how can the lord be one of those?(just curious)

Me naming Jesse Jackson as my Hero was a complete joke. I figured it was so far fetched that no one here would take me seriously. Though i did meet him one time at Edison high school in Northern Va. I was painting a corvette in autobody and they made me stop so i could hear him talk. What a con. He's definitly the epitome of a politician.
I just thought some would think of the question as in super heros... and there's nothing wrong with that interpretation either. I Really enjoyed THE GREEN HORNET because he was just a regular guy - no fake ability [that I remember] and he had a cool side kick Kato played by Bruce Lee(warwgn @ Dec. 07 2006,10:47)(WWJD @ Dec. 07 2006,11:35) I honestly thought people would put down "Superman"

What's wrong with BATMAN? ? ?

Shreveport is a city that is 51% black and 49% white..... it is by far the most racist city ive ever been in. if you know anything about shreveport you know its no big secret that blacks and whites here dont get along too well. Anytime blacks move into a neighborhood whites pick up and move out.
I live and work in shreveport as a police officer. about 3 years ago i was involved in a vehicle pursuit where ultimately a guy was shot and killed after he pulled a cell phone out and pointed it at us like it was a handgun........ THIS WAS A TERRIBLE DAY FOR ME AND EVERYONE INVOLVED. The suspect clearly comitted "SUICIDE BY COP".
So having read all of that above and then on top of that 3 white police officers gun down 1 black man.
because it was an election year the black city councilman and self proclaimed black reverends decided to use it as an opprotunity to capitalize on this mans death. They called in jesse jackson and al sharpton (for a fee i might add) and exploited the incident for a week. I guess what saddened me the most was that none of them even knew this man and none of them bothered to learn about him. they just used him.
and even worse than that is that the black communities dont see it. They are so hell bent on being heard that they dont even realize that they were being used.
