Suppose, instead, we say that while "Jesus" clearly felt that religious morality was right, the specifics of a given religious morality are another issue entirely. There's the common assumption that the author of jesus words would have even known what the "religious morality" of the OT was in it's entirety (specifically when a comment like the one you just made is offered up Kirb). Why anyone assumes this is beyond me, but why an atheist would assume this specifically is just a tad further from explanation.
Do you agree with the old testament and the prophets?
-Uh, what was it they say again?
"mentions a few but by no means all moral issues expounded upon...excluding those things you mentioned specifically"
-Yeah, sure, sure. So back to what I was trying to tell you guys.....
