Polytheist-Witch: Well the title bitch, should basically imply I'm a bitch. I'm too old to menstrate but I appreciate you feeling I have a young energy. So if you're looking for a title that doesn't have to do with me being on a period I'd go for cunt. I certainly pride myself on that one.
You have lost your power as a woman to menstruate, so you changed bitch to witch in your title. A title that doesn't have to do with you being on a period. Ok!

Evidence for God
Every theistic religion provides the evidence for God and the various ways man has tried to Worship God.
But the personification of God is the individual struggle. Trying to create an image of God that each can personify.
Even Jesus lamented about God on the cross.
Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is to say, “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?”

Polytheist-Witch: The fact that you're stupid doesn't make it a title. Nice try though.
The title Witch suggests you have powers as in Polytheist-Witch.
Just like the title Bitch would suggest you menstruate.

How is the State protected from religion when the population in the State are mostly Christians.
One of the duties of the state is to protect religious freedom. Religious freedom isn't only applicable to Christianity- it applies to all religious views. The personal views of government officials are irrelevant to their governmental obligation. Using the power of the people to advance their religion would be a betrayal of the trust the governed places in them.
Isn’t that what happened to Abortion Rights?
The Supreme Court threw out Roe V Wade because the Christian Conservatives packed the court with conservative judges.

So, a spiritual body is immortal and imperishable but it is not immaterial. According to Geisler, Paul’s reference to a “spiritual” (pneumatikos) body denotes a supernatural body, not a non-physical one. For example, in 1 Corinthians 10:4, Paul speaks of the “supernatural (pneumatikos) rock” from which the Israelites got “spiritual drink.” However, Exodus 17:5-6 and Numbers 20:8-9 make it clear the rock was a physical rock from which the Israelites got physical water, but by supernatural means. Further, when Paul spoke about the spiritual man in 1 Corinthians 2:11-15, he was not referring to an invisible, immaterial man without a physical body but a man with a fleshly body whose life was lived by the supernatural power of God.
Stephen wrote: Well it is there written in black on white. Jesus returned as he went a, full grown human . His wounds were flesh wounds. He says he is flesh and bone and clearly states that he cannot be a spirit because he is flesh and bone.
There is no mention of Jesus bleeding or having blood, only flesh and bones. That would make him a Vampire.

The Bible is what will be used to question and hold Jesus accountable to the world in as many languages it has been translated to.
English will make the job simpler because it is the most widely spoken language.

Jacob strove both for and against God when creating Jewry.All of us should seek a master, but only to be able to do better.Remember that Jesus takes over when he gets to heaven.So should we all wish to.RegardsDL
The Jews were promised a Davidic Kingdom on Earth.
Jesus is a housekeeper in Heaven. Both are undelivered promised.
John 14:2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”

Polytheist-Witch:Polytheist-Witch: April 30/ May 1 has all kinds of goodies going. Black New Moon, Partial Solar Eclipse and Wonnenacht (also known as Walpurgisnacht elsewhere) where Holda leads the Wild Hunt and grinds the souls on her mill to break up the parts and move them on.

The separation of Church and State was to allow the church to grow unhindered by the State.
Separation protects both religion from state and state from religion.
How is the State protected from religion when the population in the State are mostly Christians. Take for example the Bible Belt or Southern States.

Jesus never said his mission was finished. Which explains why he promised to return.
But why he stopped is made clear in john 19. The drink he received was not enough to keep him going. They should have offered him a larger wine cup filled to the top.
John 19:30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
You forget the night before Jesus asked god to take away the wine cup he was drinking from.
So you can image how badly he needed a drink after going through the crucifixion process. But the people underestimated his level of alcoholism and that left Jesus under spirited to continue the good works.
Matthew 26:39 And He went a little farther, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou wilt.”
There is nothing definitive there; it all seems to be speculation based on personal interpretation.For example, you say “Jesus never said his mission was finished. Which explains why he promised to return.” This is an argument from ignorance. Failing to say his mission is finished puts you in a position of not knowing, it doesn’t equate to him promising to return.It is one of the reasons I don’t consider Jesus to be a great teacher, if your teachings are open to interpretation then you have failed to accurately convey your message.
You are not alone questioning Jesus’s claims.
The Jews too rejected Jesus and demanded that he be crucified.
But the man deserves a proper interpretation of what his said because there is a big gap between being a liar or a lunatic.
We all can conclude his work was not finished but his drink was in John 19:30. When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

why do feminists defend islam and not christianity
In Islam the Prophet Mohammad had several wives. In Christianity Jesus neither married or had children.
Women just feel more secure in a Muslim home than living with a cross carrying Christian eunuch.

@RationalMadman
Just curious how the double standard runs exactly, is it that since the parents mutilate the child via a surgeon, it's okay to remove the beautiful foreskin the way that God made it?This applies to you oddball American Catholics and Protestants who circumcise despite it being a Jewish and Islamic tradition, same with some African Christians and even tribal Pagans that took on the tradition.
The Jews accepted circumcision as a small sacrifice to establish a Covenant with God. God wanted his chosen people the Jews to be easily identifiable.
Islam inherited the Covenant of Circumcision through Ishmael the first born son of Abraham.
American Catholics and Protestants adopted circumcision at the same time anal sex was becoming popular in America. It was for personal hygiene. Easier to wash and keep the penis clean during and after oral sex and also found effective against AIDS.
Muslims took advantage of this American perception of Circumcision and filled the immigration lines.
Trump had to call for a ban on Muslim immigration to America to protect American Christians from terrorist abuse.

Christian nationalism is as American as apple pie.What is nationalism? Defined broadly, it's the political expression of identitarianism. We have black identitarianism, an umbrella POC identitarianism, a slowly growing white identitarianism, feminism, the LGBTQ movement, militant atheist political activism to shut down any whiff of a small town Christmas pageant or football game prayers, and so on.Then there are a million other niche groups that haven't quite risen to that level: people who call themselves "survivors" of mainstream psychiatry. People who identify with the label of not being able to get a girlfriend. Eunuchs. Flat earthers. Anti-vaxxers. All of it's but a continuation of Alexis de Tocqueville's description of America as a place of endless voluntary associations.I would be shocked if Christians weren't a part of this process. Especially given that Christians have some of the most noteworthy collective gripes and grievances in the country.
Over 70% of Americans claim they are Christians. The American constitution guaranteed Americans their God given rights.

I don’t know where you are coming from with his “needing more wine” it seems like an attempt at a metaphor and a rather obscure one so at that. I don’t think there is a Biblical reference to give it any substance.Jesus said “it is finished” so hardly a promise to return, quite the opposite.The fact is he didn’t fulfil the proficiency in Isaiah 2:4 and it is one fundamental to him being accepted as the Jewish messiah, to say he intends to do it when he returns at some unspecified time is something of a cop out, I doubt the Jews would accept that and I don’t blame them.
You forget the night before Jesus asked god to take away the wine cup he was drinking from.

English is unique in that one can say anything in English which can mean the same thing to any other language translators but the meaning quite easily gets lost in translation.
As I have already written above:Stephen wrote; when [Christians are] pressed on such it appears that these very same people will resort to the default that one must understand Greek or Hebrew to even begin to understand a Bible that is written in English! But by saying so they do not seem to understand that they have, in just a few words, rendered the Bible written in English redundant, pointless and unreliable as any kind of “witness” source to the life and times of the Christ.#1My point is that when Christians are pressed on matters biblical and posed awkward and or embarrassing questions about what is written in the bible, their default is along the lines of " your question is redundant because you can't read or understand the context of ancient Greek of ancient Hebrew". And by using this default they don't seem to realise that they, themselves, have just condemned all bibles written in English to the trash pile. Hence my question:May They Just As Well Condemn The Bible To The Skip?So is your answer yes or no?

But a broom between a witches legs is sexually taunting to any aggressive male.
Curious facts.Interestingly some of the first documented Witches on broomsticks were Christians, deemed heretics by the Roman Catholic Church.And the first trial and torture of a witch on a broomstick, was that of a male priest.And for sure sticks between legs is an ancient fertility ritual, for obvious reasons.

A New Heaven and a New Earth
Revelation 21:1 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”.
Nothing has changed since Jesus was crucified. Even our calendar continues to mark the days with little interruption. Even the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—to be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulphur areqq still with us.
Nothing has changed???Where are the animal sacrifices of the Old Covenant? Where is the Levitical priesthood? Where is the blood atonement for the sins of Israel? Where is the temple and temple worship? Where are the feast days sacrifices? Remember that Jesus said not ONE iota of the law or prophets will change/be abolished until ALL is accomplished. So, where are these things? Why are they not being followed today? Address Matthew 5:17-18.
We don’t have a new heaven or earth and we still have our seas. The end of the temple or sacrifices was prophesied in a Daniel.
In Daniel 9:24-26, Daniel delivers a prophecy that Jerusalem and the Temple would be destroyed, again. Within these verses, Daniel provides a chronology by which certain events would occur. First, the Jews would return from captivity and rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple. Afterwards, an "anointed one," or Messiah, would appear, but he would be rejected. Then, Jerusalem and the Temple would be destroyed, again.
So it was the destruction of the temple that ended the old covenant, sacrifices and blood atonement. Even Jesus refers to Daniel.
Mat 24:15 KJV - 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
But Jewish worship still continues in synagogues and Sacrifices are alive and well: They have been slightly redefined.
Matthew 5:17-18
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
Judaism still exists. The laws of the prophets are still in the Books. Yet nothing has changed or been accomplished. The Jews still reject Jesus.
Nothing has changed!!!
Even the Pope declared the cross was a failure of God.
:Pope Francis said during his whirlwind U. S. Tour. "And if at times OUR EFFORTS AND WORKS SEEM TO FAIL AND PRODUCE NO FRUIT, We need to REMEMBER that WE ARE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS . . And His LIFE, Humanly speaking, ENDED IN FAILURE, THE FAILURE OF THE CROSS"
When you don"t understand something, When desperation hits you then look at the CROSS. THAT IS THE GREAT FAILURE OF GOD, THAT IS THE DESTRUCTION OF GOD, AND IT'S A CHALLENGE TO OUR FAITH

Justification by Faith.
The teaching of justification by faith is what separates biblical Christianity from all other belief systems. In every religion, and in some branches of what is called “Christianity,” man is working his way to God. Only in true, biblical Christianity is man saved as a result of grace through faith. Only when we get back to the Bible do we see that justification is by faith, apart from works.
Once a person is justified, there is nothing else he needs in order to gain entrance into heaven. Since justification comes by faith in Christ, based on His work on our behalf, our own works are disqualified as a means of salvation (Romans 3:28). There exist vast religious systems with complex theologies that teach the false doctrine of justification by works. But they are teaching “a different gospel—which is really no gospel at all” (Galatians 1:6–7).
This might explain why there is little change in a person who converts to Christianity. Everything from there on can be justified by faith.
Extremely well put!
So you accept you are the same person you were before your conversion, except the same past actions are now justifiable by faith.
No, not the same. We are born again. It is now God, in Christ Jesus, who has done the work, not me. My faith rests upon Jesus and what He accomplished, not on anything I can or have done. And the Holy Spirit changes my disposition towards God. God creates in me a new spirit, a spirit of renewal and trust in Him. What I could not do on my own I see as accomplished in Christ Jesus.
Why did Jesus himself expect to be recognized for his good works if just faith alone was justifiable?
John 10:31 Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him, 32 but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”
33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”
33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”
Actions and words matter not just faith in something else.

Simply put, then, there is no such thing as the "Judeo-Christian tradition." It is a modern invention. There always has been a Jewish tradition and a Christian tradition ― or, more accurately, varieties of Jewish and Christian traditions. The term "Judeo-Christian tradition" continues the suppression of Jewishness by hiding the essential differences between Judaism and Christianity, one of which is that each denies the validity of the other. As Rabbi Eliezer Berkovits puts it, "Judaism is Judaism because it rejects Christianity, and Christianity is Christianity because it rejects Judaism."
Agree. Judeo-Christian is code for Christian.
Judeo-Christian accepts Christianity has its roots in Judaism. But the primary difference is Jesus is central to Christianity and circumcision is central to Judaism.

So Judeo-Christian is about the restoration of the Davidic Kingdom by Jesus a Jew. It is about the humble expectations Jews and Christians have placed on Jesus.
Judaism and Christianity holds conflicting views on Jesus. This proposed definition of Judeo-Christian is incoherent. Additionally, you've provided no position on Christian Nationalism.
The term Judeo-Christian is used to group Christianity and Judaism together, either in reference to Christianity's derivation from Judaism, Christianity's borrowing of Jewish Scripture to constitute the "Old Testament" of the Christian Bible, or due to the parallels or commonalities in Judaeo-Christian ethics shared by the two religions.
At the end of the day ― or the end of the world, for that matter ― the term "Judeo-Christian" is one we might well do to abandon. It conceals the Western history of anti-Judaism. Even when, in philo-Semitic mode, it appears to extol the virtue of Jewish identity, it is deeply anti-Judaic.

Is the Bible written in English worth the paper it is written on? I personally wouldn’t want to see this ancient work destroyed.I think it is well known of me by now that on the surface I find the Bible (New Testament in particular) to be a book of contradictory, ambiguous, anomalous, vague, enigmatic and problematic half stories surrounding a man that believed or was led to believe he was a rightful king and heir to the throne of Jerusalem and the power struggle that he had to endure in the times of ancient Palestine under Roman occupation and between the many other factions and sects that existed at the time. And not to be taken literally at all times. i.e. a man didn’t rises from a physical death to be alive again after being physically dead for three days.Others think to the contrary. For instance, there are those that I have met that believe the Bible to be clear and concise in its presentation and self evidently true and without any ambiguity whatsoever in the way it has come down to us. Until of course they are posed a few simple questions which usually arise not just frequently from the Bible but just as frequent from their own commentary, and when pressed on such it appears that these very same people will resort to the default that one must understand Greek or Hebrew to even begin to understand a Bible that is written in English! But by saying so they do not seem to understand that they have, in just a few words, rendered the Bible written in English redundant, pointless and unreliable as any kind of “witness” source to the life and times of the Christ.So is there at all any point to reading, never mind studying the Bible written in English? A Bible that those who have said that is clear and concise but suddenly insist that the Bible is fathomable and understandable only when one is tutored, trained and learned in the ancient Greek or Hebrew languages?
The problem with the English translation of the Bible is the many ways English can be translated which have given rise to some 33,000 denominations of Christians.
The Jews are united behind their Hebrew Bible which makes up the Old Testament.
The Romans were united behind the Greek translation of the Gospels and books in The New Testament. The Roman Catholic Church made Christianity a universal religion based on their Greek and Latin translation of the New Testament.
But the problem started with Tyndale’s Bible.
A translation by William Tyndale of portions of the Bible from the original Greek and Hebrew texts.
The Tyndale Bible usually refers to the translations of various books of the Bible by William Tyndale in the 1500s. His work is credited with being the first English translation from the original Hebrew and Greek texts and the first English biblical translation that was mass-produced as a result of new advances in the art of printing. Tyndale never published a complete Bible prior to his execution, as he only finished translating the New Testament and roughly half of the Old Testament. However, Tyndale's translations have greatly influenced nearly every modern English translation of Scripture.
English is unique in that one can say anything in English which can mean the same thing to any other language translators but the meaning quite easily gets lost in translation.

Perhaps the New Testament was written to include the fulfilment of those prophesies simply to establish the claim that Jesus was the Messiah.To say he fulfilled the Messianic prophesies, what about this one:Isaiah 2:4He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.Looking at the history of Christianity quite the opposite was achieved.
Jesus never said his mission was finished. Which explains why he promised to return.
But why he stopped is made clear in john 19. The drink he received was not enough to keep him going. They should have offered him a larger wine cup filled to the top.

@TheMorningsStar
So often when I talk with Christians about the Trinity they use analogies which more align with the heretical views of modalism, partialism, or tritheism. When they don't offer those analogies they tend to either use such vague terminology that it isn't clear what they are talking about, simply give a link to a source that will 'explain' it for them, or simply admit that they don't understand it either.Now, it could be that the issue is that I tend to get into these types of discussions in more casual forums with people that do not often engage in debate, and so hopefully, this being a debate-centric website, that won't be an issue here. I'm not saying that it cannot be done, but simply that I have not yet seen it done.To those that believe the classical idea of Trinity (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b3/Shield-Trinity-Scutum-Fidei-English.svg/1138px-Shield-Trinity-Scutum-Fidei-English.svg.png), can you explain it in a way that is easily understandable and not heretical?
The trinity as one God exists as or in three equally divine “Persons”, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is not supported anywhere in the Bible.
Jesus always prayed to the Father
Jesus said the Holy Spirit would come only “after” he left.
Jesus said he too had a God.
John 16:7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. 8 When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 about sin, because people do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness,because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer;
June 20:17 17 Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
But the trinity or threesome that produced Jesus is well documented in Luke.
Luke 1:35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
The Holy Spirit or sperm donor came on Mary. The Most High overshadowed (overpowered) Mary and held her down. Mary was gang raped and the threesome or trinity produced Jesus.

I mean that Jews have always put man above God, in recognition that all the notions about any god are man made.
True, when it came to making a covenant with God. Instead of offering worship of God, Abraham pulled out his penis and suggested circumcision.
Jesus even asks in scriptures, have ye forgotten that ye are gods?
Reminding them ye are gods was to legitimize Jesus’s own claim to be the son of god.
I do not think any Jew has ever been fool enough as to believe in talking serpents and donkeys.
Jews did believe in talking serpents and riding a donkey could fulfill a messianic prophecy.

Why Christianity is a failure and Christians in denial?Jesus never claimed he was God. He said he was sent by God to save the Jews. But we know that failed. Jesus said he would return 2000 years ago. But that never happened.During his life on earth Jesus was called a liar and a lunatic.1. Liar.John 10:33 "We are not stoning You for any good work," said the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because You, who are a man, declare Yourself to be God."2. Lunatic.0Mark 3:21 When His family heard about this, they went out to take custody of Him, saying, "He is out of His mind."John 10:20 Many of them said, "He is demon-possessed and insane. Why would you listen to Him?"3. They demanded Jesus be crucified.Luke 23:21 but they kept shouting, "Crucify Him! Crucify Him!"4. The Romans crucified Jesus.John 19:23 When they crucified him, the Roman soldiers took his clothes and divided them up four ways, to each soldier a fourth. But his robe was seamless, a single piece of weaving ...5. Even Jesus blamed God for forsaking him on the cross.Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?"6. Jesus's call to his disciples failed too. No one followed Jesus or joined him in his crucifixion. Therefore no one was saved or worthy of Jesus.Matthew 10:38 and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.7. His discipiles all tried to save their own lives and did not want to lose it for Jesus.Luke 17:33 Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.8. The one time offer for salvation ended with Jesus. Jesus has not returned to make a similar offer to future generations. But God has sent another prophet Mohammad in his place.9. Jesus spoke to his generation. Repeating his words does not carry the same promise. His promise ended on the cross.Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?"10. Even the Pope declared the cross was a failure of God.Pope Francis said during his whirlwind U.S. tour. "And if at times <ins><strong>OUR EFFORTS AND WORKS SEEM TO FAIL AND PRODUCE NO FRUIT, we need to REMEMBERthat <ins><strong>WE ARE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS ... and <ins><strong>His LIFE</strong></ins>, humanly speaking, ENDED IN FAILURE, THE FAILURE OF THE CROSS"When you don"t understand something, when desperation hits you then look at the <ins><strong>CROSS. THAT IS THE GREAT FAILURE OF GOD, THAT IS THE DESTRUCTION OF GOD, AND IT'S A CHALLENGE TO OUR FAITHIf there is no resurrection of Jesus then Jesus did not die for anyone's sins on the cross. Dattaswami said Jesus was saved by his disciples and smuggled to India where he lived to 85 years in Kashmir.Dattaswami believes Jesus's resurrection never happened.Reply: Bhavishya purana"Dattaswami wrote: When Jesus was crucified based on simple emotional slogans. His death was not justified and therefore He rose and walked out. When the soldier was leaving finally, He pierced the stomach of Jesus with his weapon. Then blood came out. Blood will not come out from dead body. Jesus was alive and He was brought down by His disciples. Then He was kept in the cave. He knew the protection of His life. He walked into India and met the king Salivahana and talked with him. His conversation was recorded in "Bhavishaya Purana" of Vyasa. This scripture speaks about the future. Vyasa wrote this long back.The verse in scripture is "Esa Putram Cha Mam Viddhi, Kumari Garbha Sambhavam, Mlechcha Dharmasya Vaktaram"', Which means "I am the son of the father of heaven. I was born to unmarried girl. I preached spirituality to Muslims. ' Thus spoke Jesus to Salivahana. He stayed in India till He attained the age of eighty-five years and died in Kashmir. You can find the buried tomb of Jesus there even today. On the tomb it is written "Jesus" in Hebrew language.Jesus disappeared from home at the age of 16 years. He returned at the age of 30 years. He was crucified in 32nd year. From 16th year He was in Himalayas in the association of several sages. He was a good Sanskrit scholar. He studied all the Hindu philosophy and this is the reason why the Christian and Hindu philosophies are almost similar in concepts.Harikrish biblical scholar and spiritual leader.
Harikrish, by most standards convincing 2 billion Christians a Jewish liar and lunatic name Jesus can offer salvation if you just believe in Jesus, would be considered a success. Today we have 2 billion Christians that believe this Jewish liar and lunatic named Jesus is God.
According to John 3:36, "He that believeth on the Son hath eternal life; but he that obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him."

Guided by the Holy Spirit the first church which is the Roman Catholic Church was built. Today we have 30, 000 denominations of Christians. Most of them are in opposition to the teachings of the Catholic Church which was inspired by the Holy Spirit.Christians say Jesus was without sin and therefore the perfect human sacrifice. But scriptures paint a very different story.Scriptures show Jesus broke all the 10 commandments. These ironies exist in the Bible.The 10 commandments say.1. You shall have no other gods before Me.2. You shall not make idols.3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.4. Remember the Sabbath day, To keep it holy.5. Honour your father and your mother.6. You shall not murder.7. You shall not commit adultery.8. You shall not steal.9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.10. You shall not covet.Jesus broke many of the commandments, If not all!1. You shall have no other gods before Me.Jesus tried to claim he was God.John 10:33 "We are not stoning You for any good work, " said the Jews, "but for blasphemy, Because You, Who are a man, Declare Yourself to be God. "2. You shall not make idols.Jesus made a covenant with a cup.Luke 22:20 In the same way, After supper He took the cup, Saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, Which is poured out for you.3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.Jesus said every word he spoke came from God. Unless God too was as incoherent as Jesus. God in the OT never spoke in parables. His orders were clear and direct.Luke 18:34 But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, And they did not comprehend what He was saying.4. Remember the Sabbath day, To keep it holy.Jesus broke the sabbath.Pharisees accused Him of breaking the Sabbath (Matthew 12:10; Mark 3:2, John 9:14-16).5. Honour your father and your mother.Jesus tried to destroy the traditional family.Matthew 10:35 For I have come to turn ""a man against his father, A daughter against her mother, A daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law"6. You shall not murder.Jesus murdered the truth.Matthew 15:24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. "Yet he spent his entire ministry condemning the very people he was sent to save.7. You shall not commit adultery.Jesus was unfaithful to God and his disciples. He left them to die even though he was given all authority over heaven and earth.Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.8. You shall not steal.Jesus stole the words of the prophets before him and claimed they pointed to him.Luke 24:27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, Explaining from all the Scriptures. . . And Jesus explained to them what was said about himself in all the Scriptures, Beginning with the books of Moses and the writings of all the prophets".9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.Jesus accused God of betraying and forsaking him on the cross.Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, Lema sabachthani? " which means, "My God, My God, Why have you forsaken Me? "10. You shall not covet.Jesus suffered from a messiah complex and coveted the title messiah/Christ/Anointed one.John 17:1 After Jesus said this, He looked toward heaven and prayed:"Father, The hour has come. Glorify your Son, That your Son may glorify you. 2 For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. 3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, The only true God, And Jesus Christ, Whom you have sent. 4 I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. 5 And now, Father, Glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.Scriptures tell us Jesus was tried, Convicted and crucified for his blasphemous lies and lunacy. . . . By the Romans. But the confusion continues.Christians have waited for 2000 years for Jesus's return as he had promised without any success.Preterists claims Christisns got it wrong, That Jesus returned in 70 AD.Jehovah's Witnesses claim Jesus returned in 1874 or maybe 1914.Others say Jesus could be the next thief who robs your house.Revelation 16:15, Matthew 24:43, 1 Thessalonians 5:2, 1 Thessalonians 5:4, 2 Peter 3:10 ESV - ("Behold, I am coming like a thief in the night! )Harikrish biblical scholar and spiritual leader.
Jesus never said he was good.
Mark 10:18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.

No, I hadn’t forgotten that Jesus was a Jew and it was Paul who preached to the gentiles.Regarding the Jews crucifying Jesus, crucifixion was a Roman method of execution, the Jews stoned people to death. From what we now know about Pontius Pilate, he was a cruel and ruthless individual and if Jesus was claiming to be the Messiah he would have had no hesitation in executing him for treason.The reason the Jews didn’t covert to Christianity is that their faith was in Judaism, people’s religious faith tends to be strong and they tend not to change it, that makes them difficult to convert.
Has it not occurred to you Jesus fulfilled at the prophesies in the Old Testament which Judaism follows.
The Old Testament is the Torah, the books of the Prophets and the books of the Writings. Within Judaism this trio is known simply as the Bible, or the Tanakh, an acronym derived from תורה/ Torah (Teaching), נביאים / Nevi’im (Prophets), and כתובים/ Ketuvim (Writings). When the term Old Testament is used, it is often in order to distinguish it from the New Testament, a collection of Christian books and letters that are not part of the Jewish faith.
The Old Testament ended with Malachi 430 years before Jesus’s birth.
But the Old Testament contained prophesies about the coming Messiah promised to the Jews.
Prophecies Christians consider fulfilled by Jesus from the Old Testament. But because the Jews rejected Jesus as their Messiah, Christianity was created to account for the fulfillment of OT prophesies.

Religious people: Is it your duty to convince others that your god is real, and if yes, WHY?Honestly, both in DDO and in DART, a clog of debates such as "god exists" has been common enough that upon seeing it makes me snort.Atheists can live their lives without, say, a god, and they would live fine. So would religious people praying to their god every day and living fine.Why do these clashes exist and are as common as they are right now? Why are so many topics of debates and forums centred upon whether god exists or not?Is it perhaps a duty in religion, or in some parts of a religious groups, to convince others that your god is real?
A lesson from History. The Jews were not very successful at convincing its neighbours their Abrahamic God was real.
As a result the Jews were exiled from their homeland by Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Medians, the Greeks, and now under Western rule (Holocaust).
Now compare that to the Romans turning the Roman Catholic Church into a universal religion by convincing its believers Jesus was real. Today there are some 2 billion Christians in the world.
Similarly the Prophet Mohammad convince the Arabs his God was real. Today there are some 1.9 billion Muslims in the world.

@SkepticalOne
Christian nationalism holds that the US was founded on "Judeo-Christian" principles. "Judeo-Christian" seems nonsensical to begin with (Judaism is Judaism because it rejects Christianity and vice versa). Regardless, principles in the holy texts of Judaism and Christianity are so distinctly different than those embodied in America's founding documents that to suggest a link between them is to grossly misrepresent America.Rather than waste time defending against arguments that might not be used, I leave it to proponents to define "Judeo-Christian principles" and provide arguments. Perhaps, each respondent may limit themselves to one or two of their best arguments, and let's do our best to keep it civil folks!
Judeo-Christian Principles is a combination of Judaism and Christian principle beliefs.
Judaism teaches about a coming Messiah who will liberate the Jews and restore the Davidic Kingdom. The Jews rejected Jesus as the promised Messiah and demanded he be crucified.
Christianity teaches the Messiah Jesus was crucified and will return to restore the same Davidic Kingdom.
So Judeo-Christian is about the restoration of the Davidic Kingdom by Jesus a Jew. It is about the humble expectations Jews and Christians have placed on Jesus.
How big was the Davidic Kingdom? The united kingdom of David and Solomon, described in the Bible as a regional power, was at most a small tribal kingdom."
Israel Finkelstein, chairman of the Archaeology Department at Tel Aviv University, with archaeology historian Neil Asher Silberman, has just published a book called "The Bible Unearthed: Archaeology's New Vision of Ancient Israel and the Origin of Its Sacred Text."
"The Israelites were never in Egypt, did not wander in the desert, did not conquer the land [of Canaan] in a military campaign and did not pass it on to the twelve tribes of Israel. Perhaps even harder to swallow is the fact that the united kingdom of David and Solomon, described in the Bible as a regional power, was at most a small tribal kingdom."
Jerusalem was essentially a cow town, not the glorious capital of an empire. These findings have been accepted by the majority of biblical scholars and archaeologists for years and even decades.
The tales of the patriarchs -- Abraham, Isaac and Joseph among others -- were the first to go when biblical scholars found those passages rife with anachronisms and other inconsistencies. The story of Exodus, one of the most powerful epics of enslavement, courage and liberation in human history, also slipped from history to legend when archaeologists could no longer ignore the lack of corroborating contemporary Egyptian accounts and the absence of evidence of large encampments in the Sinai Peninsula ("the wilderness" where Moses brought the Israelites after leading them through the parted Red Sea).
Finkelstein is an iconoclast. He established his reputation in part by developing a theory about the settlement patterns of the nomadic shepherd tribes who would eventually become the Israelites, bolstering the growing consensus that they were originally indistinguishable from the rest of their neighbors, the Canaanites. This overturns a key element in the Bible: The Old Testament depicts the Israelites as superior outsiders -- descended from Abraham, a Mesopotamian immigrant -- entitled by divine order to invade Canaan and exterminate its unworthy, idolatrous inhabitants.
The famous battle of Jericho, with which the Israelites supposedly launched this campaign of conquest after wandering for decades in the desert, has been likewise debunked: The city of Jericho didn't exist at that time and had no walls to come tumbling down. These assertions are all pretty much accepted by mainstream archaeologists.
Marcus says that Finkelstein is "difficult to dismiss because he's so much an insider in terms of his credentials and background. He's an archaeologist, not a theologian, and he is an Israeli. It's hard to say that someone who was born in Israel and intends to live the rest of his life there is anti-Israeli."

Harikrish if Jesus was an atheist, what does it make the Christians who idol worship him?
From the Scriptures and the actions and words of Jesus we can conclude Jesus was an Atheist.Atheist definition: a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.Jesus mocked the religious leaders of his time. He called them vipers and scums just like Atheist mocked the believers today.Matthew 23:33 "You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?Jesus called his body a temple and drove people out of the real temple of worship.John 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."Matthew 21:12 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.Jesus claimed he had all authority over his alien Kingdom and earth. Yet he stood idly by as the Romans destroyed the holy city and sanctuary.He believed anybody who ate his flesh and drank his blood would have eternal life. Who needs a God if Jewish meat is kosher and gets you eternal life in the hereafter.John 6:54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.Jesus said he was from an alien world.John 8:23 I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.John 18:36 Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place."Jesus was despised like most atheists were during his time. He comforted them.Isaiah 53:3 He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.Luke 6:22 Blessed are you when people hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man.Jesus on the cross mocked the God of the Bible.Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" (which means "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?").Were those last words of Jesus that motivated the Pope to declare Jesus was a failure of the cross?Pope declared:"And if at times our efforts and works seem to fail and not produce fruit, we need to remember that we are followers of Jesus Christ and his life, humanly speaking, ended in failure, the failure of the cross."Jesus called God his father throughout his life. By doing this he reduced God to a rapist and the cause of his illegitimate bastard status.He even blamed God for his alcoholism like God willed him to drink the water he turned into alcohol.Matthew 26:39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."He was not directing people to God, he was forcing believers to chose between family or him.Matthew 10:34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.35 For I have come to turn ""a man against his father, a daughter against her mother,a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law"36 a man"s enemies will be the members of his own household."[c]37 "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.38 Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me.But if Jesus was an atheist as scriptures suggests who went against the religious leaders of his time by denouncing their beliefs. Then why do Christians worship an atheist Jesus?By worshipping the atheist Jesus they believe they are turning him into God by their exhaltation.If the Pope did not remind Christians that Jesus was a failure of the cross we would be swamped by Christians on DDO. But we find DDO is full of happy atheists who take delight in the fact that Jesus was an atheist......Harikrish.
Harikrish, if Jesus was an atheist what does it make the Christians who idol worship him?

Still, Einstein felt a deep bond with the Jewish people, one that transcended religion as well as the anti-Semitism that Nazis and their sympathizers leveled against him..Despite his differences with fellow Jews in their practices and beliefs, Gimbel says, Einstein recognized that the relationship he had with Jewish friends was fundamentally different from the one he had with non-Jewish friends. He came to believe that whatever their beliefs, Jews shared common traits.The first trait Einstein identified as common among Jews was an ability to face the world with a sense of awe and joy, whether the Jews in question were rapturous Hasidim or secular physicists.The second trait Einstein identified was a sense of social justice. As he wrote in 1938, “The bond that has united the Jews for thousands of years and that unites them today is, above all, the democratic ideal of social justice coupled with the ideal of mutual aid and tolerance among all men.”I am related to Einstein through the Koch family.
Albert Einstein did not work directly on the atom bomb. But Einstein was the father of the bomb in two important ways: 1) it was his initiative which started U.S. bomb research; 2) it was his equation (E = mc2) which made the atomic bomb theoretically possible.”
So the greatness of his Jewishness was contributing to weapons of mass destruction. He singly managed to undo everything Jesus stood for which was the salvation of humanity.

The smartest Jew once wrote, "The word 'God' is for me nothing but the expression and product of human weaknesses; the Bible a collection of honorable but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish,"
That was written by Albert Einstein.
Young Einstein went through an observant phase at 12, even though his parents were secular Ashkenazi German Jews. He didn’t stay interested in Judaism long enough to have a bar mitzvah though.
Germany did not care for his type as the Holocaust proves.

@BrotherD.Thomas
Miss Tradesecret, as a woman shown herewith: https://ibb.co/NFcsLgy that goes directly against Jesus’ words in 1 Timothy 2:12, whereas she is not to teach and in being SILENT towards men!YOUR REVEALING QUOTE ONCE AGAIN: "While I hold no love for witches and I think in our century we have a false view of history and ACTUALLY of what occurred back then. In other words, I think most of the history we talk about now is exaggerated and nonsense."You have to have no love for witches, even in you being a pseudo-christian woman! This is because of the biblical FACT that you are to follow what the inspired words of Jesus state herewith: “A man or a woman who is a medium or a necromancer shall surely be put to death. They shall be stoned with stones; their blood shall be upon them.” (Leviticus 20:27)."So Saul died for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the Lord in that he did not keep the command of the Lord, and also consulted a medium, seeking guidance. He did not seek guidance from the Lord. Therefore the Lord put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse." (1 Chronicles 10:13-14)YOUR REWRITE OF THE BIBLE QUOTE: " ... which is that covenantal death is not to be automatically equated with a physical death."The passages above are PHYSICAL DEATHS in nature in stoning, their blood shall be upon them, and where Jesus killed Saul, and not your comical and wishful thinking of your laughable "covenantal deaths" like you proffer to try and cover up Jesus' exact words of killing His creation, is it dear? NO, they are not!Miss Tradesecret, your ungodly presence within this forum is excused for now.NEXT PSEUDO-CHRISTIAN WOMAN THAT TRIES IN VAIN TO REWRITE THE SCRIPTURES LIKE MISS TRADESECRET WILL BE ...?
Exodus 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
