50 Reasons to be Ashamed of Jesus
#9
RE: 50 Reasons to be Ashamed of Jesus
Add to this list of 50 the most barbaric, destructive and stagnating belief system I can think of. Christianity has been the worst disaster humanity has ever suffered. It has played a part in the fall of Rome, the thousand years of the Dark Ages, Crusades, Inquisitions, witch burnings and destructive spin off religions like Islam. Humanity has only been able to progress as Christianity's power has been contained. Even now, Christian leaders stand in the way of seemingly every step of sociological and technological progress.

If Jesus is a divine being as Christians allege, he has watched all of this unfold in his name for the last 2000 years and done nothing to stop any of it. He is, at best, criminally negligent and, at worst, tacitly approving all that has transpired.

If Jesus does appear on the 21st, I will have no trouble concluding that he is the least fit being in the universe to stand in judgment of anyone. It is he who should beg our forgiveness, not the other way around.

"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too."

"(Yahweh's) actions are good because (Yahweh) is the ultimate standard of goodness. That’s not begging the question"
