Faith and Works
#11
RE: Faith and Works
Christians still oppress everyone who does and doesn't want to worship god to this day. That doesn't really explain anything. Yahweh would kill or order the killing of people who didn't follow the law all the time. If Jesus just wanted us to be good people and not worry about the law, then why is faith important? Jesus ridicules the Pharisees, but given passages like the one about stoning a man to death for picking up sticks on the wrong day, is it so hard to belief some people would demand the letter of the law be followed?

Jesus was almost a completely different person from Yahweh anyway. Connecting the two together just makes the book even more confusing.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
