Is Christianity based on older myths?

[Chad32]

Hate yourself? You'll have to expound on that. Perhaps read the context first.

Slavery? Steal? Kill? Can you provide references?

Luke 14:26 - If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

Mark 12:31 - The second is this: "Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these."

1 Peter 2:18 - Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh.

How is one to love his neighbor if he buys and sells his neighbor? How is one to love his neighbor as himself, if he's supposed to hate himself?

Luke 19:26 - He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away. 27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me."

That's a parable of ten Minas, where a king says it, but Jesus is obviously advocating it.

I read the verse about Jesus stealing a donkey, but he did say the people would say yes to it if asked. So I guess it wasn't necessarily stealing.

Not to mention there are people that claim Jesus was Yahweh in the flesh, but he didn't seem to think so. Someone asked him what was good, and he said why are you asking me? There's only one good, and that's god. There's also what he says before and during his crucifixion. Let not my will, but your will, be done.
