Jimmy I never , ever... claimed to be an expert, But I will say, that at least i gave that 2000 year old book a solid glance, which apparently you have not. I say this, because if you had actually 'read' any significant part of it, you would have gathered that the message is not about fear...its about hope.
You have convinced yourself that there is no God. Fine... But why dont you practice your own tenents about science, and do the research for the evidence that supports your bitter and uninformed claims (In other words...please read that book before you comment)
If YOU had actually read it you'd see that the "message" is inconsistent gibberrish.
You can cherry-pick a rationalization for almost any type of behavior from it.
Wanna sell your daughter into slavery?
It even tells you HOW.
I know it is comforting to just recall the parts that you agree with.
After all, that's what Gods are for.
"Isn't it convenient that HE agrees with ME completely. MY God is better than YOUR God."
And before you go, "Oh, that's the Old Testament" cop-out, Jesus TOLD his followers to obey the Old Testament.
As much as I like Jesus, his character was written inconsistently as well.
There is at least THREE different versions of him in the Bible.
He wasn't always preaching love from the sermon on the mount.
MIke, You are clearly an angry soul... I mean, life has truly taken a sh*t on you...So I can understand your frustration. But I dont agree with your incessant , downer, negative perception. Frankly, you suffer from the pain of ludicrous logic...Your calling expressly demands a fortitude of soul and spirit...but, like a prissy little bitch, you whine and cry about how absolutely cheated you feel... How awful it must feel to actually take a positive stance on the context of a written journal. You 'choose" to believe whatever you wish... So, What stops you from going postal? Take out your aggression Mr Mike...You have no God to stop you... and thus No one to save you... Therefore, its obvious how cowardly you are about this issue...You hate the fact that you are right, and you hate the fact even more, that you are wrong... What a f**k up state you are in bro... I feel for ya.
