How long before Jesus returns?
He never existed. He didn't get crucified. He didn't die because he's a fairy tale. He isn't coming back because he's never been.
Jesus was just one of many men claiming to be the messiah (think life of Brian) However, since he died at some point, he can never return. End of.

A long time ago now but the history is there to see. Check it out.

Faith is based on fact and this must always be so otherwise it's just another myth. Not something I'd want to trust in.
Interesting read but hardly credible as they are all referencing the bible.
Some of the sources have been shown to have been tampered with to include references to Jesus.
The Romans, for all their faults were excellent in terms of record keeping. There is no record of a Jesus Christ having been crucified by the Romans, and there would have been if the Romans had crucified him.
There is evidence of an adaptation of the Horus cult (Egyptian god) growing in Jerusalem at about the time Christ was supposed to have lived. Read 'The Pagan Christ', which shows how followers of the cult tried to make it appear that the Jew's Messiah had lived by adapting the Horus story (God born a human, 12 disciples, healer, raising the dead, crucified, rose on third day, ascended to join his father - sound familiar?)
