There are so many things that Christianity stole from other religions. Like Noah's Flood. It's a cheap copy of the Epic of Gilgamesh. And Jesus especially is a big copy from people like Horus, Mithra, Hercules, Krishna, Buddha, and the list goes on and on and on like the Energizer Bunny.

So basically, Christianity is just a bunch of plagiarized traditions.

Along with Judaism and Islam....pretty much.

I don't think even Buddhism or Hinduism escapes (I could be wrong there though Dodgy)

Well, Buddhism and Hinduism were around before Christianity, about 500+-BC...... Wink

No disputing that they predate Xtianity and Judaism and Islam...but I'm thinking that they themselves are just plagiarisms of an earlier religious movement amongst the people of the area at that time period...

Hmm, possibly. Basically all of the world religions from the past 2000 years are plagiarized religions from other cultures back further. But oh well, you can't do much since those people have "Faith."

So "Faith" = "Lack of imagination" Wink Shades

It's more like "with faith, I don't have to say 'i don't know' anymore." The funny thing about it, is that Christians love quoting the bible when Jesus states things about Faith even though some of them say that the bible is not literal. Why would that saying of Jesus be true, and other repulsive sayings not?
