"I can answer that question for you easily. The apostles were all fictional characters and never existed."
Well aren't you the enlightned one! Don't you think if that were the case their fraudulance would have been proven a long time ago, not to mention with all of today's anti-Christian supersleuths?
Also I don't think Jesus operated the way you said he did. He did not walk around surrounded by sounds of trumpets proclaiming that he was God's son or equal to God....probably for the very reason you just described. He was much more subtle. He almost certainly confided in his apostles much more than he did the general population before his death.
But besides that Atalanta, I can tell you have true emotional problems. Who, with any kind of respect for their fellow human would degrade the symbol of their reverence like you just did in that last paragraph? If I was talking to a Muslim I would never say something vile (as you did) regarding Muhammad. I would never make such a horrible comment to Buddhists or Jews or Hindus. You have really showed your true dark colors. I feel sorry for you because you are obviously miserable inside. I will not be communicating with you anymore.
