But do you believe they were based on real people? Like was there a guy that actually existed that was the inspiration for the Christian character of Jesus?

But Spiderman won't punish you horrifically for all of eternity if you don't believe in him. Never underestimate the fear that Christians have for their loving god.

Yes, but these are not fictional characters. I have actually met Batman and Wonder Woman and had my picture taken with them a few years back.

Spiderman is real. I saw him in New york once in time square. He had on his full costume and he shut web out of his hand. I am sure, well somewhat sure that if I had watched him long enough he would haved climbed a wall.

I’m more likely to believe in spider man then I ever will believe in god Jesus Moses or any other religious figure...that’s for sure.

It is not that simple when brainwashing is used from infancy. Group think and brainwashing goes a long way.

You got it, all man made top grade bullshit!

The words are labels made up to label something.

You mean superman doesn't exist

Surely there is 'proof' of Spiderman. Not only are there holy books, many with illustrations but I have seen this Spiderman on film and television.

...and how would you know that?

Not knowing that these fictional characters represent psychological archetypes, and as such, are based in biology, is like not knowing that only ten per cent of adults ever fully develop the capacity for Formal Operational Stage thinking - obscure, but scientifically verifiable.

But Stan Lee never tried to use comics as a societal control. The true difference is in application, that, and the number of people currently in the cult (Catholicism). Yes, welcome to the asylum.

Welcome to the asylum. Enjoy your stay.

I disagree!!! There are books where you can see Spider Man, Batman and the X-Men as well!!! They do exist!!!
