Because according to the other beliefs, he didn't.
Again, you are right because you think you are right, which isn't the same thing.
If you are right for believing you are right, then so are they.
So is Westboro Baptist Church.
So is the Islamic State.
So were the Crusaders.
By the very definition of your beliefs, you can't all be right.
If one of you is right, then the rest of you are wrong.
However, you can all be wrong.

The power of reasoning is beautiful.

If you put the gospels in the order that they were actually written, you'll find that Jesus starts out as a nice guy with some good advice in the first one, and eventually morphs into a Marvel character with super powers by the time the last one is written HUNDREDS of years later. It's like the biggest game of Telephone ever.
Everything you just said is incorrect.
Mathew, Mark, and Luke were written before 70 AD.
John was written in the 80's AD.
The gospels were not written hundreds of years after Jesus's death. This is false. The information written in the Koran pertaining to Jesus's death was written hundreds of years later. I think this might be what you were referring too.

This is just a ridiculous statement.
(Matthew) contains more fulfilled prophecies pertaining to the Messiah than any of the other three Gospel records. At least 60 references and 40 quotations, such as "that it might be fulfilled" and "thus it was written by the Prophet," appear--more frequent than in either of the other synoptic books.
In the book of Matthew also states Jesus was born from a virgin, Jesus is the son of God, Jesus met with Satan, Jesus performed numerous miracles, rose from the dead, and etc....

Witnesses don't really mean anything

Even though "conversations with God, Allah, Buddha, etc." are not exclusive to the Christian religion. A Muslim believes what he believes for the same reasons you believe what you chose. He uses his eternal fate to justify his actions and belief. He uses his conversations with his God to do the same. He is convinced, just as you are, that HE is right!
I know you were trying to make a point but you are all over the place with this vague statement. Christianity and Islam are completely different. Same with Buddahism and Hinduism. The differences are so numerous that I will not even begin to list them. These religions are so different that only one can be right or nobody is right.

I feel you are either not reading my posts or having trouble understanding my point because you are pretty much making it for me.
All religions are different, yet exist for the same purpose. To explain the unexplained such as where did everything come from and what happens when you die.
They also all share the similarity of being the "correct" choice of religion and have the books, scriptures, and "witnesses" to back up their claim.
They also all have devout followings who use the above logic and "evidence" to defend their beliefs even though it isn't unique to their specific religion.
Hope I cleared it up a little.

This shows that you personally have zero understanding of Christianity

Lol what?
I was raised Catholic and went to church every Sunday and Wednesday until 17.
You believe it exists for a different reason but that just gets us back to what you read in a book that tells you how correct it is and how wrong the other books are with the exact same purpose.

None of this is accurate either, look, no offense but you truly don't understand that which you are speaking about

You are telling me I am wrong, which I am fine with, but not WHY I am wrong so I would argue the exact same could be said about you.
The belief that every religion is wrong is just as feasible as a deity's son being sent to earth and then sacrificed for the salvation of mankind so that he may rise again and all believers will spend eternity being rewarded.
Replace that description of Christianity with reincarnation, Islam, Judaism, etc and I stand by it.

My faith doesn't exist because of something written in a book. The book exists because of faith that was there and that exists without it.

I get what you're saying.
I just had to laugh. Reminded me of this: "I don't hate you because you're fat. You're fat because I hate you."
