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.
Our families aren't a herd, and an afterlife bribe to abandon them is no more than usual cult leader behavior.
Dropship: I'm not going to follow my herd, I'm going to follow a new herd! One with a charismatic leader who wants me to forsake my family!
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
