I know the answer...
Die hards say that all those fossil bones was a trick laid out by god to catch the unfaithful. Dude, the earth isn't older then 4,000 years old. I went to a party where some chick actually said that then looked around the room daring someone to challenge her. I looked, laughed, and left.
*edit: Stop trying to bury my propaganda Oba is a douche post with geico reps.

I stood in line for four hours. They better give me a Wal-Mart gift card, or something. - Rodney Booker, Job Fair attendee.
Ceremonial burial was one of the ways that archeologists could tell that eary humans were engaged in religious practices because it showed a concern for the dead after they died.
That being said, heaven is assumed to have existed since God created the heavens and earth in Genesis, which took place in the Old Testament (much earlier than Jesus was purported to visit Earth).

I once asked a door to door Jehovah witness. He said they get a free pass as long as they were good people.

There's evidence that says there was a historic figure who was named Jesus who lived during the era that the Bible puts him in. Whether he had wizard powers or not is another story.
Only evidence is second-hand accounts. Regardless, heaven is supposed to have existed before Jesus rode the Golden Chariot to Earth, so cavemen very well could have gone to heaven.Hurricane2k9 wrote:

What you should be asking is: where did Americans go when they died before Obama's sacred birth?

I believe he was real... I just don't believe he was the super-human offspring of an all-powerful deity.androoz wrote:

Jesus was most likely a charismatic, revolutionary thinker who had a huge influence on those around him (positive in the case of his followers, and negative in the case of those who killed him as a anti-establishment 'heretic'). Back then, without any interwebz, it would have been very easy to build up a mythology around a man and perpetuate it by word of mouth and subjective personal accounts. Historians have even argued that the supposed divinity of Jesus was not even agreed upon until the first Council of Nicaea.
I get the questioning of his status as a deity...but I'm actually more than a little surprised that there's even a question of whether Jesus, as a historical figure, existed.Braddock wrote:

Do people question if Muhammed or Buddha or Moses actually existed--not the religious aspects of their life stories, mind you--just that they existed?

Same here... I have no doubt at all that he existed. Too many personal and historical accounts of a man for him to have simply been a work of fiction.FEOS wrote:

AFAIK Buddha was pretty legit.FEOS wrote:
