That doesn't seem a little fucked up to you? A Hindu might be the most humble, kind, generous person on Earth, but he can't go to heaven because of Jesus? That's stupid. I'm so glad there's no god like yours in reality.

Quote:Ex: "For you have heard it said you shall not Murder, but I tell you the truth anyone who hates His brother is guilty of this sin."

Yeah, because human feelings toward someone for any reason is so fucking naughty. Anyway, you can hate your bro all you want, because it's impossible to get into heaven by just deeds and efforts. Just believe in zombie jesus, telepathically ask him to forgive you for murder or anything heinous, and you're in.

Quote:That said the "moral Law" is what governs the life of the christian not as a way to earn righteousness before God, but as a thank you for the Gift of atonement/righteousness we have received.

It's all a bunch of bullshit. Think about it.

If your god is so smart, why didn't he just do it like that from the beginning?

Oh... that's right. He's mysterious and shit. Whatever.
