Secret Method: The original questions are in pertaining to the stories the bible tells. The questions were, seemingly, asked after viewing of the Passion of the Christ. The Passion was based on Christianity. Therefore, in Catholocism and Protestantism lies the answers to his questions. That eliminates all the posts about Gnostics, Judism, etc. The language of the bible is important, but as far as this thread is concerned it is delving way too deeply into something that will start thousands of side arguments. This thread can be answered simply by reading the NKJV or NIV of the english bible, translated from German, translated from Latin, translated from Hebrew, translated from whatever.

That's pretty clear, IMO.
