Paul's Writings Underpin Western Thought

[Brian37]

1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 as follows:

Just a guess.  Feel better though.  There is a strong sense among some scholars that this is one of those later interpolations...which means that it was the fucking church which was anti-semitic not whatever clown wrote the original.

Even without sectarian squabbles between the different sects of Christianity, the bible clearly has Jews turning in the Jesus Character. Otherwise there is no reason for Christians to claim Jesus was a Jew. 

The point of the martyr story as a motif has nothing to do with the validity of the fantastic claims of the bible, and everything to do with creating a hero motif.

Every religion has this hero motif. Every religion has a good vs evil motif.
