The origin of Christ belief is the historical evidence, not the believer's imagination.
Dead people don't rise up from the grave and wander around in the streets, or fly off into the sky under their own power. This has been explained to you in depth and I am not going to repeat myself again. And it is dishonest to pretend that you don't understand what the word supernatural means, or how historians evaluate historical records.
I don't think you realize. Christians are unwilling to distinguish between the God of their imagination (brain generated God that runs stuff in their head) and a real God.
You're not describing Christ-believers who take the miracle acts of Jesus in the Gospels as basic. Believing something from the 1st-century documents reporting it as actual events has nothing to do with the believer's imagination. Even if the reports are false, it's not the believer's imagination which produced it, but an external source reporting it, like the documents which report historical events, which accounts might be true or fictional. But even if it's fictional, even wacked-out, it's not the believer's imagination which produced it, or their brain or imaginary God. The origin of it is the 1st-century documents, not later believers, anymore than the historian's knowledge originates from his imagination or brain.
The basic miracle acts of Jesus are not a product of anyone's imagination later, since the time they were recorded in those 1st-century accounts. Even if those events are fictitious, they are not generated in any later believer's brain or imagination, but are an input from the real world, from evidence, like other reported facts of history.
They give their brain God free reign.
No, the Christ-believer yields to the reported events in those 1st-century documents. These don't originate from the brain of the believers today. If anything, they have to SUPPRESS their "brain God" at times and put in its place the "real God" who is revealed in those events. The believer today is not free to set his "brain God" loose to "make up shit" coming from his/her imagination, but has to conform to the reported events which really happened, or which the evidence says happened, regardless what one's imagination might prefer to have happened.
What does this mean? They have full blown hallucinatory scenarios, in which people die, raise from the dead, etc.
No, they're not hallucinating it, because they derive it from the reported events in the 1st century, i.e., from the documents or evidence of the events. When you believe someone else's written account of what happened you are not hallucinating those happenings, even if what's reported is dubious.
They attribute this to God... instead of the entertainment center of their brain . . .
How could you attribute to their brain something which existed before their brain existed? If you want to "attribute" this to anything, it's to the writers of the 1st-century documents who report the events, or to the sources those writers used.
You could attribute later theology to the brain of the theologian centuries later, but not the belief in the miracle acts of Jesus, which existed first, before the theologian. There's a proper term we have for reports from documents written near the time of the alleged events, which is "EVIDENCE" -- not imagination or the brain, regardless whether it's entertaining to someone.
. . . entertainment center of their brain (which is quite overdeveloped in the majority of Christians).
So it's a prefrontal lobotomy they need?
They need to be killed off.
But that wouldn't eliminate the real culprit, which is the reported miracles of Jesus, in the evidence. To remove that nuisance you have to round up all the ancient manuscripts and burn them. Once you eliminate all the sources we have for this one unique reported event in history, then you'll finally make us all safe -- or at least future humans will be saved from these subversive notions, because the evidence will have been eradicated. So that's the solution? Eliminate evidence from the past of anything you want not to have happened? to make the world better?
Make the world a good place for intellectually honest people.
And probably also plant new evidence, of events you wish had happened instead. Rewrite history by replacing the existing evidence with new scenarios which would be more wholesome for people to believe.
Just say "we're sending you to your maker".
Killing them? No, that doesn't remove the real problem, which is the ancient documents reporting the events you want not to have happened. It's those documents causing the current problem of people believing Jesus did those miracle acts. What's troubling you is that people base their belief on evidence, and since you can't stop them from believing evidence, your best solution is to remove the evidence itself. Have it all destroyed, and then you can claim it's from their imagination rather than from real events which happened.
They always come up with an excuse though . . .
But that will finally stop happening once you've eliminated all the evidence, by eradicating all those ancient manuscripts and depriving the believers of the original source of their problem, which is the evidence of what happened in the 1st century. Once that nuisance is removed, there's nothing driving them to come with more excuses for continuing to hold these inconvenient beliefs. Wiping out history, or at least that one part of it, is your best hope of fixing the world to your liking.
. . . come up with an excuse though (their brain God knows... even if they don't... the clock is ticking).
But instead of killing them, which is politically incorrect, just have President Trump create factory jobs to put them in, to keep them out of mischief.
Problem solved!
