Yeah, that's awesome, now tell me the one about the 3 little pigs. Three little pigs supposedly had chinny chin chins. However, humans are the only animal with chins. Finally, some truth

The religion of Christianity is evil in my books. Religion in general is evil in my books. Any religion. But faith and belief don't smite anyone. Well, that's not true. It's about smiting yourself and nobody else. Religion is all about controlling others.
Faith is about me controlling myself. The Bible has been translated / interpreted for the control of others. Once you decipher it properly, everything changes. And that sums it up in a nutshell.

As I posted: "Go, and sin no more".Not "Go, and keep on sinning, I affirm your lifestyle". Jesus met with sinners, tax-collectors, prostitutes, NOT to affirm or celebrate their sins, but to rescue them from their sins. As Jesus said to people like you who scoffed and refused to understand him, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick." See that? Jesus compared committing sin to being " sick" and in need of healing from it, not an affirmation or a pat on the back saying "Well done, keep doing it!" But I don't suspect you even want to understand though, "for the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing".

PLEASE stop trying to force your weird religious indoctrination down the throats of others, NO ONE wants it or cares. No one is saying your version of the easter bunny was condoning sin, but he wasn't smiting it either. Too bad your not amish, at least they're not trying to force their lifestyle choices onto others.

If he was forcing it you'd not have that option.

JC is talking about the new testament with the false prophet.

JC is talking about the new testament with the false prophet. Well Jesus did some smiting in the marketplace among other things. Hell he even smited a fig tree. And I didnt see where JC said he was only talking about the new testament.

The people who wrote that narrative lived in a part of the world. To them it was the whole world. Also, translations vary as do interpretations. It COULD have been a localized flood. And the world's topography could have been different then. And there if I'm not mistaken, believe to be a LOT of water INSIDE the earth. Lots of variables.

Jesus didn't smite someone in the marketplace. Fake news. He cast out the money changers in his "Father's House", the Temple. Big difference.

JC is talking about the new testament with the false prophet. Anger and wrath are important traits. They just need to be used properly. Without them you wouldn't be able to protect yourself from physical harm when assailed.
