The only way to break the hold of crap gods, as far as the godly are concerned.... is to get new ones.  That's pretty much the story of religion.  It's not as if you couldn't use a bit yourself.  Following christ?  Not exactly a moral god himself.  Welcome back, btw, seems like it's been a bit.

Thanks. I have been where I have been needed more to fight those you describe so accurately. My kingdom for such eloquence.

As to me, I have found a moral God. The Gnostic Christian one who follows the ways of the other Jesus that speaks from scriptures. Not the one Christians follow.

See for yourself how much better he is as he tries to free people from traditional dogma and religions, not slave people to those poor traditions and religions the way the Christian Jesus does.

I hope you like Alan Watts. My favorite philosopher.

Indeed. Especially when the sheeple want to be washed in the blood of their scapegoat Jesus.

See bolded. God isn't a man, so your point falls apart.

In my religion, God has to submit to man and not man to God. It is more like Buddhism and Karaite Jewry.

The point was that Christians have to form an immoral double standard to follow their genocidal son murdering prick of a God.
