You, a loser Christian, reading from a 2000 year old book of morality fables.

Me, a sophisticated Scientologist, reading from a 70 year old Sci-Fi/fad health trilogy.

The hypocrisy of any religious book being the words of their all powerful master while they give themselves the option to cherry pick which rules they wish to follow is astounding.

It’s one of the first things that convinced kid me that it’s all made up bullshit to control gullible people.

And don't worry, it definitely wasn't completely written a thousand years later to push the preferred political agendas of the time.

That wouldn’t be true for Christianity as 3 of the 4 Gospels were cribbing off the 4th one. Heck the Gospel of John and the Revelation unto John were written by at least two different people and the Revelation likely was included at the Council of Nicea because they both had John in the name. Christianity would be very different without revelations.

Also rewritten, heavily translated with a large variety of biases, and with whole sections taken out or added in depending on the version AND there has been lord knows how many instances of stacking errors because new interpretations often come from already dubious later versions and not the original texts.

But it’s also all the undeniably word of god and you better not question whatever version you grew up with.

Q: How can you tell if a Lemming is an atheist?

A: Don't worry, they'll tell you.

You saw a meme about science and math and your first thought was "how can I make this about religion"?
