Which performed more miracles, Jesus Christ or Apollonius of Tyana?

That answer would probably be best answered according to your belief. Where there is an absence of faith, no miracle can be believed hence no miracle can occur.

Jesus could supposedly combine these two feats by walking on water.  He wore sandals I believe.

No, jesus was just one of many supposed "sons of god" that came out of the middle east area during this the same period.  Mithras in Persia, Ra in Egypt, and Bacchus in Greece also were worshiped at the same time with similar stories (virgin birth, wise men led by star, miracles)  The Bible simply out-competed the other books.  Its funny how many religions have stories where women are impregnated by God at times when their husbands were out of town.

Saint Jacob (aka St. James). Iago is a Latin form of Jacob. It makes more sense if you think of the original Hebrew form, Yaakov, which sounds more like Iago. James is another Anglicized version of Yaakov, but Jacob is closer.

Are you talking about the god Apollo, or the space mission that put man on the moon?

The Jesus myth was not established properly before the roman emperor Constantine collected the writings of the different cults and defined the New Testament at the council of Nicea. Mithra was adapted to Mithras, a roman God, so Constantine knew all about the Dec 25 virgin birth and the last supper etc etc. Romans tended to adapt gods instead of getting rid of them completely. Aside from that, the Jesus tradition is very much inspired by the original Iranian mythologies. Thought-provoking to think that so much about Jesus is just adapted, older myths...

St. Apollonia is the patron saint of dentists.\n\nSt. Apollonia, who died in the year 249, was martyred for not renouncing her faith during the reign of Emperor Philip. The account of the life of St. Apollonia was written by St. Dionysius to Fabian, Bishop of Antioch. Apollonia had all her teeth knocked out after being hit in the face by a Christian persecutor under the reign of Emperor Philip. After she was threatened with fire unless she renounced her faith, Apollonia jumped into the flames voluntarily. She is considered the patron of dental diseases and is often invoked by those with toothaches. Ancient art depicts her with a golden tooth at the end of her necklace. Also in art, she is seen with pincers holding a tooth.

Jesus is included in other historical documents than just the Bible.  I personally have read about Him in Josephus.  And yes, He is the Christ.  How many people do you know of that would die for a lie?  ALL of the disciples except one died for saying that Jesus is the Christ.

I think only proof of miracles done by Jesus is Quran. Tell you why ? Quran claims itself to be from God and asks those who denies this to bring something comparable in Arabic to Quran. This is a challange that has baffled critics of Quran for centuries. They used to meet each year and promise to bring something by next year, they worked hard and till today, they could not produce something similar to one chapter in Quran. So since Quran prooves itself to be a book of God, we can believe affirm our belief in Jesus also.\n\nI will give below few words of George Sale, a christian missinary and critic, who has studied Arabic and translated Quran to English.\n\n"I will mention but one instance out of several, to show that this book was really admired for the beauty of its composure by those who must be allowed to have been competent judges.  A poem of Labîd Ebn Rabîa, one of the greatest wits in Arabia in Mohammed’s time, being fixed up on the gate of the temple of Mecca, an honour allowed to none but the most esteemed performances, none of the other poets durst offer anything of their own in competition with it.  But the second chapter of the Korân being fixed up by it soon after, Labîd himself (then an idolater) on reading the first verses only, was struck with admiration, and immediately professed the religion taught thereby, declaring that such words could proceed from an inspired person only.\n\nThe style of the Korân is generally beautiful and fluent, especially where it imitates the prophetic manner and scripture phrases.  It is concise and often obscure, adorned with bold figures after the eastern taste, enlivened with florid and sententious expressions, and in many places, especially where the majesty and attributes of GOD are described, sublime and magnificent; of which the reader cannot but observe several instances, though he must not imagine the translation comes up to the original, notwithstanding my endeavours to do it justice.\n\n   Though it be written in prose, yet the sentences generally conclude in a long continued rhyme, for the sake of which the sense is often interrupted, and unnecessary repetitions too frequently made, which appear still more ridiculous in a translation, where the ornament, such as it is, for whose sake they were made, cannot be perceived.  However, the Arabians are so mightily delighted with this jingling, that they employ it in their most elaborate compositions, which they also embellish with frequent passages of, and allusions to, the Korân, so that it is next to impossible to understand them without being well versed in this book.\n\n   It is probable the harmony of expression which the Arabians find in the Korân might contribute not a little to make them relish the doctrine therein taught, and give an efficacy to arguments which, had they been nakedly proposed without this rhetorical dress, might not have so easily prevailed.  Very extraordinary effects are related of the power of words well chosen and artfully placed, which are no less powerful either to ravish or amaze than music itself; wherefore as much has been ascribed by the best orators to this part of rhetoric as to any other.  He must have a very bad ear who is not uncommonly moved with the very cadence of a well-turned sentence; and Mohammed seems not to have been ignorant of the enthusiastic operation of rhetoric on the minds of men; for which reason he has not only employed his utmost skill in these his pretended revelations, to preserve the dignity and sublimity of style, which might seem not unworthy of the majesty of that Being, whom he gave out to be the author of them; and to imitate the prophetic manner of the Old Testament; but he has not neglected even the other arts of oratory; wherein he succeeded so well, and so strangely captivated the minds of his audience, that several of his opponents thought it the effect of witchcraft and enchantment, as he sometimes complains."\n\nWe can see that eventh

Jesus of course...though He was more than a prophet.

There is no ( or at the very least, precious little) evidence of a person called Jesus outside of the bible.  Xians will say Josephus mentioned him, but in fact, the only translation we have of Josephus was done by a christian writer in the 4th century...we don't have it in the original Latin.  And what is mentioned is very weak and open to interpretation and very likely was subject to interpolation.\n\nThe Romans were meticulous record keepers.  If Jesus existed, and had fostered the kind of revolution that would get their attention by threatening Roman rule, performing miracles, there would be copious writings about him from the Romans, and other sources.\n\nPaul the Apostle is agreeably the earliest christian writer, and he wrote probably a couple decades after the putative events.  Yet Paul makes no reference to a recently living Christ...and if you read his works separate from the rest of the NT, he seems to be writing of a supernatural creature who fought a battle, died and rose again in a spiritual realm, eons ago.  Paul went to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and yet he makes no mention of a pilgramage to Golgotha, or the tomb or any sites that would be shrines to a real person recently living, crucified and risen again ascending into heaven. Paul is bizarrely disinterested in anything relating to a real physical Jesus.\n\nAll other accounts, were written much later.  The earliest Gospel of Mark (by the way, it wasn't written by anybody called Mark, it is anonymous) couldn't have been written any earlier than 40-50 years after the events.  The Gospels all contradict each other as to Jesus life, miracles and death.  I recommend any of Randall Helms books on the New Testament and Gospels for a detailed overview of the problems.\n\nIt really is quite interesting if you are prepared to have an open mind about it.  Jesus, if he existed, was at best a wandering prophet/holyman/philospher.  We have lots of legendary heroes with stories about them, like King Arthur, William Tell...but we know they never actually existed.  I think it more likely he never actually existed, and was created as a "founding father" in the heroic tradition by the early church.

God is all powerful and miracles are happening today.  Jesus Christ, the same, yesterday, today, and forever.  Give God the glory.  I have had a touch from him too.  Fantastic!
