Origin Of The Christian Myth

There is a reason fundamentalists fight against and denigrate higher education, science and history or anything else that fosters critical thinking skills and inquiry into their beliefs

As usual I can't view videos, so I'll just wing it.

No religion encourages advanced scientific inquiry, not even Judaism though we're more tolerant than most. Religions came to be at a time in evolution when many mysteries still perplexed thinkers of the time. We know so much more now it's questionable if any of the major religions could be founded today. Thinking of the LDS and Scientologists and how much we ridicule them because of what we know. Genesis in particular would be laughed off of shelves if anyone put it foward today as revelation from God.

O9A most certainly encourages advanced scientific inquiry.​

True, there's nothing that smacks of paganism more than the doctrine of the Trinity.

You're right. We should talk, what's your address?

"So it is that these gutless weaklings, these self-described ‘satanists’, now prattle on and on and on – in cyberspace – about satanism (mostly anonymously of course) and yet have no dark, evil, genuinely, Satanic deeds to their name. Never having once done or incited acts of chaos, violence, ‘crime’, culling, and terror, and never once having taken themselves to and beyond the moral, legal, limits imposed by The System."

Yet another reason why I resonate with 09A far more than I have ever resonated with any other "Satanic" factions.

that's because fundamentalist rely on written text rather than Spiritual deliberation for the means to the proper religious ends.

nothing new, for centuries, there.

How come Muslims don't believe the Christian texts? How come Christians don't "rely" on the text of the Koran? How come Jews don't convert after reading the bible?

There is no evidence to support any of the claims made in the Bible concerning the existence of a god. Any ‘evidence’ proposed by theists to support the Bible’s various historical and supernatural claims is non-existent at best, manufactured at worst.

The Bible is not self-authenticating; it is simply one of many religious texts. Like those other texts, it itself constitutes no evidence for the existence of a god. Its florid prose and fanciful content do not legitimise it nor distinguish it from other ancient works of literature.

The Bible is historically inaccurate, factually incorrect, inconsistent and contradictory. It was artificially constructed by a group of men in antiquity and is poorly translated, heavily altered and selectively interpreted. Entire sections of the text have been redacted over time.
