Quote:Socrates was written about by Plato and Xenophon. This puts him two legs up on your non-existent godboy.
Have you ever read any of Plato's work before?
Quote:Not really, the gospel stories go out of their way to exonerate the Romans and blame the Jews for the miscarriage of "justice." As Jews became more and more unpopular throughout the late 1st and early second centuries AD this make more and more sense.
You have zero crediblity.
Quote:Also both men knew Socrates personally, while I doubt any of the authors of the New Testament (Paul especially) knew Jesus personally.
Try again mate.
Quote:The moral code of Jesus doesn't carry much weight with me.Nor does any other system of ethics based on absolute moral imperatives. I can and do mock Christian morality as simplistic and naive, as well as often cruel and hypocritical.
Hos is it cruel?
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.
You dont hate God, you hate the church game.
"God is not what you imagine or what you think you understand. If you understand you have failed." Saint Augustine
Your mind works very simply: you are either trying to find out what are God's laws in order to follow them; or you are trying to outsmart Him. -Martin H. Fischer
