Read the Gnostic Gospels. "Jesus" (or whatever archetypal amalgam he represents) taught many good things that have been twisted and corrupted to suit religions and governments. One must read beneath the bible's words to find the message of "Jesus". And guess what? It's NOT what Christian churches are teaching. Aho!

Quote:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’
