Am I nuts? I like Jesus..:)

Dropship asked- What exactly are the "iffy" things Jesus said that you're having trouble with?

See post #47 on page 5 of this thread.

Thanks mate, I see you listed 9 quotes there which you call "bad stuff", but you don't tell us why you don't like them, are we supposed to guess?..
For example here's one you quoted-
"And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life." Matthew 19:29

and it seems alright to me because it stresses the need for us to be rebels and not run with the mindless herd.
For example who did Jesus say was the greatest man ever to be born?
Some famous King maybe? Or one of the ancient prophets? A wise philosopher or mystic perhaps?
Nah! Jesus's cousin John was a young world-rejecter living rough in the middle of nowhere eating wild food and dressed in near-rags, sometimes going in town to yell insults at the snooty priests and corrupt rulers.
Jesus's verdict on him? -
"John is the greatest man ever to be born" (Matt 11:11)

Uh, here's a fucking thought, how about Jeebus be a more upstanding person and go jump up his own ass instead of threatening to tear families apart if one of their members happens to be stupid enough to buy into his bullshit?..

Careful mate or people might think you're a mammy's boy..

Sounds fun, there'd certainly be fireworks if they're fundies and I set them straight..
Where do they hang?

See, here's whats interesting about that response.  You seem to be trying to be amusing.  But you don't know any of these folks, you probably haven't even read their posts..  

I know, that's why I said "IF" they're fundies I'll bust their asses. Now tell me where they hang so I can go check them out..
