If Christians did that, it would destroy Christianity entirely. It all depends on them misinterpreting Jewish texts to get the results they want. Christianity is inherently arrogant in its "interpretation" of Jewish texts. Christians are always saying that Jews do not understand Jewish prophesy, as well as other aspects of Judaism. It is their schtick (if you will pardon the expression).
I always laugh my ass off when these dumb shits try to tell jews how to be jews.

Or when primates tell other primates how to be primates.
Authority should be external. Something measurable. Hell yeah.
[If this seems socially awkward it's because I don't know how to agree with other people who aren't convinced by the existence of God. My bad.]

I died.... laughing. RIP authentic Simpsons' voices.
Oh and no...
...but when I saw the really generous comments with green somewhere around them, I assumed that was a cookie of some sorts.

Just 1 hour ago, I got his reply. I hadn't yet asked him to present his argument for his views on theodicy, but he replied and the opportunity is there. Part of me wants to abandon it, and another part of me wants to ask him outright... "Why does our personal God sit idle when children smaller than my own are starving to death? Why, when we know He can, did God not write down the ultimate guide to human understanding? If his insight is so infinite why, then, did he leave us a book that compounds the complexities of the practice of worshiping Him." The latter part of me is screaming, "too late, motherf*cker... if you had it, you would have presented it on YouTube." Theorectically if a person is a good Christian and true believer he wouldn't expect his favorite ethnocentric deity to feed starving children. He would take steps to feed the starving children himself as stated in the fairy tale. If you know there's a need and if you don't take steps to fill that need how can you expect mercy from your deity when you never followed his commandments about feeding and clothing the needy as stated in Matthew 25:42-46?

Ahhh... but you see... that's a little much to ask. You see, I'm after blessings. I earned those blessings. Those blessings have my name on them. I can't share a blessing as illustrated by Jacob and Esau. Surely... all the things that come from a blessing belong to me and can't be shared
</Out of Character>
Scientists do that sort of thing. Work for meaningless pay for the betterment of our species. Clergy make you feel good about ignoring man's problems.
