He paid for the other laws so you don't have to do all of those Jew gymnastics any more.
You are wrong.
But, that is another bone I've got to pick with this storybook.
God, an omnipotent omniscient being who LOVES everybody, sends an incarnation of HIMSELF to PAY for sins TO HIMSELF that he CREATED in the first place.
He creates faulty human beings and then gets angry with them when they do as he designed them to be.

I am inclined to believe that the bible isn't exactly 100% correctly translated since so many would be power mongers keep coming up with new and different ways to rewrite it.
But the ideas contained within are bigger than you are and the general idea(s) are represented well enough to see the big picture.
"The song remains the same".
The problem is not with god but the animals on Earth that think it's okay to write religious materials in a way that generally suits them the best.
Don't blame god because people suck, that's been going on since the very beginning and most of us know the difference between right and wrong.
It's how you "spin it" that gets humans in trouble.
If you have a little common sense it's not all that difficult to tell the difference between what's been written and what he wants for us all.
God isn't the problem, it's the humans that interpret.
Everyone has an agenda and you have to have some big balls to rewrite the bible, but that never stopped anyone.
Nope if we can't see the big finger come down and crush someone, we refuse to draw conclusions because they would invariably change our behaviors.
