The problem is brainwashing from birth and not being allowed to question about the scriptures, nor challenge them.
I read recently the New International Bible. It is a more accurate translation than other versions and has been written by scholars world wide.
I was amazed to find in one part that Jesus had travelled north and was saying he was the son of God. A woman approached him and said..''but you are a Greek. It is said that the son of God comes from Galilee' There was a Greek community in Judea in those days. Greeks also were in Egypt/Jordan/Iraq.
I then began to wonder if the scriptures were mainly Greek mythology so brushed up on my teachings from school days.
Zeus had three sons with earthling virgins. One son of a god and an earthling was Mithra,who died and rose again on the third day.
I then came to believe that Jesus had been 'invented' by the Greeks as they hadn't before 'invented' a son for this relatively new invisible God.
King Akenaten of Egypt, decided that because the sun and moon weren't doing as they were asked; he said there must be an invisible God up there so we must pray to him. And so God was 'created'. This concept was taken to Israel by Moses and so religion began, when all it is really is mythology.
