I still don't understand why anyone would make up a person like the Biblical Christ..

[Judas BentHer]

If you read the New Testament it pretty much supports slavery, telling the slaves to remain obedient unto their masters, while promising conversion to the new faith testified to by Paul's Jesus fiction, will make those slaves better people when they're dead. But in the meantime, remain enslaved because this world shall pass.

What prophecies from the Old Testament have been fulfilled?



I think also one has to consider that the Bible is a compilation of papyrus, scrolls, letters and mythologies, that were literally elected by at least 4 different councils of men, to become today's "closed canon". Which means, if one believes the Bible is "god's breath", the inspired communications from a supreme being unto mortal scribes, that that higher intelligence not only spoke to sinful men but other sinful men gathered together and decided what of god's inspirations were to be deemed worthy of being bound into what is today's Bible. And not only that, being a closed canon, it means that no matter what that higher power will never again have anything to say to the world.

And then of course, one has to consider if we are talking about an intelligence superior to humans, inspiring a book it needed to write through other lesser intelligences, in order to speak to us, then how is prayer to work? If it needs humans to speak to us, how can it possibly hear when we silently speak to it?
Furthermore, if we are to consider a higher intelligence having been responsible as the inspiration for the Bible, how is it that the Bible is errant? How can a supreme being make mistakes? Sort of in keeping with the question, how can a supreme being make faulty humans and then blame them for their god given faults?

The prophecies in the Bible are about as accurate as those of Nostradamus. So broad reaching and non-specific, that anything that happens can be attributed to them if one wishes to look hard enough to find a correlation.
And when we're talking about an omniscient (all knowing) god here, one that allegedly sees everything through all time because time is not a factor in that god's realm, then how is it that he can't be specific? And furthermore, how is it that the autographs are no longer available, those original texts that comprised the original source materials for what became today's Bible and as such, throughout the centuries all the different interpretations of language from Aramaic, unto Greek, unto Hebrew, unto Latin, appear throughout all 64 books. So that when someone today points out a discrepancy in scripture, an apologist or a theist can retort with, well that's because that word means this and that in this or that language.

Well that's just too bad, isn't it? Because one shouldn't have to have a veritable library of codex, the Gutenberg and a degree in Hermeneutics, in order to "read" today's Bible to their personal understanding wherein it all makes sense.

How could someone make up the Biblical Christ? Remember, Christ's myth arose at a time like today. When the majority of the world was enslaved and the minority were the slave drivers. Control mind, and spirit by giving hope to the living that says if the slave obeys earthly masters and invisible heavenly hosts, they'll reign as god's when the suffering is done, but only if certain rules are followed by what is afforded the opportunity on faith alone, for that enslaved majority to assume the elite position of having god's favor, and you'll control the body till it rots.

It's not true. There is no god, but you. You create and you destroy. You live your ideal Heaven or suffer your worst Hell.
And nothing unseen thinks you're special.

Jesus, is my gardener.
That's what's real.
All else is tax exempt fraud.
All the thinking person has to do then is ask themselves, can I live my life as if a lie will save me?

If yes, god bless.
If no, hallelujah and enjoy the reality while it lasts.
Bible god is the first worst sinner. Worship that? Jesus, are you kidding me?
