I love mythology and the abilities it has in the realm of fantasy. Am I the only person who has left Christianity and come back to it only to appreciate it to some degree?

Don't get me wrong, it is still bullshit but it is very wonderful bullshit.

What do you find compelling in a theology that begins with a God that is a judge and sets and accepts a bribe that has him murder his own son?

IOW.

Is God a just judge?

This speaks of Jesus.
He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.

The above quote shows this as Gods first actual judgement and shows his setting and accepting a bribe of a human sacrifice to corrupt or alter his justice and judgement.

Justice usually states that only the punishment of the guilty is acceptable to justice and that it would be unjust to punish the innocent.

God’s corruption of this usual justice is what the bribe or sacrifice of Jesus bought. Injustice.

If you elect your judges in your country, would you vote God in as a fair and just judge knowing that he can be bribed?

Christianity and the Bible make many internal contradictions.

Wonderful?! Seriously?

The hero comes up with the concept of eternal punishment for finite thought crimes.

THIS, for me, over-shadows any of the pretty-sounding things in the mythology and makes it all ugly.

It's like, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still Sarah Palin.

The lipstick is unnecessary. I do believe that she'd be quite sexy with a ball gag in her mouth...

Quote:Both of them basically tell people to be peasants and live in poverty, forever.

Which tells you that jesusism started out as an attempt by the masters to keep the slaves in line.

Still going strong.

Thanks for showing your poor morals and lack of reading comprehension.

I have you down for what you are now.

Keep enjoying your religion based on human sacrifice and the punishment of the innocent. Always a good way to start a theology according to Satan.

Dam it all. Not slaves. They have to be watched. Sheeple are voluntary slaves and need no watching at all as they stupidly believe that there is a sky daddy watching them. Fear the Lord they are told and that way they watch themselves.

Strange that they must fear the shepherd instead of the wolf, but that is Christianity for you.

Um, I am not the one speaking gibberish. I also made no claim of morals at all so it seems you lack morals for being a liar. Seriously, quote me for bringing up ethics in our conversation.

Also, I have no religion.
