Question: "Did Jesus have brothers and sisters (siblings)?"

Answer: Jesus’ brothers are mentioned in several Bible verses. Matthew 12:46, Luke 8:19, and Mark 3:31 say that Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him. The Bible tells us that Jesus had four brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas (Matthew 13:55). The Bible also tells us that Jesus had sisters, but they are not named or numbered (Matthew 13:56). In John 7:1-10, His brothers go on to the festival while Jesus stays behind. In Acts 1:14, His brothers and mother are described as praying with the disciples. Galatians 1:19 mentions that James was Jesus’ brother. The most natural conclusion of these passages is to interpret that Jesus had actual blood half-siblings.

You need to scratch the surface. This isn't just to do with one or two threads. Read here.

Re: Telegraph Spain bashing ....... again
 

I'm only aware of one thread that was closed and that was because the posters within it refused to listen to repeated and numerous polite requests to stop calling each other silly names and making personal attacks. So, if you call us wasting our time doing that heavy handed, then you are right.

If people debated the issues without sniping at each other then it wouldnt happen, so dont blame the mods

You reap what you sow

Really have no idea what this comment has to do with the price of fish Dom but top trolling all the same.

Re: Telegraph Spain bashing ....... again
 

It was a politically correct thing to do at the time and a shrewd move to get those of the book behind him too, (The Bible). Obviously If you consider Jesus as a religious nullity then the Muslim faith fails on the same grounds, ipso facto.
As for the existence of the guy who was called Jesus, there are some contemporary references to Jesus only during the last year of his life by the Roman annalists Eusebius and Josephus (excuse my spelling) This is fact, the documents exist. Before the last year of his life there appears to be no contemporary documentary reference to Jesus. Only with the appearance of Saul of Tarsus (Paul) does the invention start around 70AD and this was enlarged upon for the next 150 yrs. In 399 AD at Nicea the final touches of the early RC church were contrived and spread as fact or dogma.

Ta, haven't seen that, but also enjoy a bit of Comando Actualidad for what is actually happening in Spain, rather than someone telling us a few busy bars in Madrid means the country is booming. Some very different, very sad stories in those programmes.

Why do some of you find it so hard to accept that things are slowly getting better.
Maybe we the general economy will never return to the heady days of 2006-7 but is that such a bad thing when you consider how the global boom was financed.
Stop looking back so far and start to see that today was better than yesterday and tomorrow could see another improvement.
