Why should we believe our history books? You need to make a grown up decision and ask yourself seriously whether it is fable or true. If you think it's a pile of heaping dung, then have a good day. If you don't and you believe on Jesus, then awesome! May God bless you all the days of your life.
Fuck, man, how dense can you be?
We cannot hate God, since no gods are real. We don't hate Jehovah any more than you hate Ganesha or Shiva or Thor.
On the other hand, we can be astounded at how barbaric and brutal your descriptions of this fictional character (around whom you have chosen to center your life and ideologies) are.
If you told me you worshiped Darth Vader, I'd question why you followed a guy who liked to Force-choke people who disagreed with him.
And you would reply "Why do you hate Vader?" And I would stare at you like your brain came out of your nose.
We shouldn't believe our history books. We should look at what each book has to say, compare it to other books (and primary literature, if we see discrepancies between the versions told in the history books), and form an idea of what history really is based on how strong the case is of each thing we in society think we know about history. The same is true of any books.
And if a person told me they had read only one history book, and then decided that was the only history book worth reading, I'd stare at them like their brains came out of their nose.
oh ok so you could care less about what I have to say about my beliefs. I understand now.
The bible is 66 books put together btw, not just one.
