Quote: Wasn't Judaism somehow tied with Zoroastrianism?
Yes.
http://op-ed.the-environmentalist.org/20...daism.html
Quote:"Zoroastrianism is the oldest of the revealed world-religions, and it has probably had more influence on mankind, directly and indirectly, than any other single faith." - Mary Boyce, Zoroastrians: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices (London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1979, p. 1)
"Zoroaster was thus the first to teach the doctrines of an individual judgment, Heaven and Hell, the future resurrection of the body, the general Last Judgment, and life everlasting for the reunited soul and body. These doctrines were to become familiar articles of faith to much of mankind, through borrowings by Judaism, Christianity and Islam; yet it is in Zoroastrianism itself that they have their fullest logical coherence....” - Mary Boyce, Op. Cit. p. 29.

The only race God sees is the human race.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Where are his eyes? When's the last time he had them checked?
Why don't you tell us your insight into your god's mind. While you're at it, explain why you're special and privileged enough to get that insight, and Catholics, Mormons, Muslims, Hindus, and plenty of others aren't.

Any thoughts on this?
Yeah - bullsh*t. Moses slaughtered women and children. If that's who you call "best man" - you have some twisted definition of "good". Which wouldn't be surprising, if you're religious.
Admittedly - the competition among the biblical characters, over who's the most horrible c*nt is pretty fierce, but Moses scores pretty high in that department. And I don't even care who he f*cked.

Is that why G-C does wear the aluminum foil hat or why he doesn't wear the aluminum foil hat?

What else is there to say, the truth is the truth.

PS: That would make a good bumper sticker.

So then the Jews were not the chosen people?
Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
