No, I'm not a bearded orthodox Jew, not even born jewish, I just feel it necessary to fix the amount of ignorance towards religion, people think religion is the tiny sick system they were taught by tiny sick clergymen from their respective faith.

So, there is the bible (Torah + prophets + writings).

Then there is the "new testament", designed to replace the bible's system, but never able to do that since there still are Jews who worship the original bible God without adds-on of a son and a family of God and all these christian myths... With all due respect, since religion is more than what can be scoffed at.

Then there is the Kur'an which teaches there was once some purpose to God's commandments but God was unable to bet on the right horse so he changed his election of the Jews, and choosed an entirely different system and a new community of believers: the moslems.

All that is magical, well, it's God who made all these swings, I guess he's entitled... But why choose a 'rotten' people as the Jews, since God knows everything from beginning to end, well you have to admit either God made a mistake in choosing them http://www.totse.com/bbs/rolleyes.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/rolleyes.gif), or he still bets on them http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif)...

Then you could argue: well, God didn't choose the Jews in the first place, he had a plan for a given period of time. But then you are stating that God lied and deceived, and again your theology proves to be an insult in the face of God http://www.totse.com/bbs/eek.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/eek.gif).

But God had to "suffer" many insults already, no big deal to God.

Just, where are you holding?

And then there's this idiot religion...

No, tighta$$, there are only idiot followers.

Religions are all equal before God, humans are thos who misuse religions, and grab the head of the King in order to clean the toilet bowl with the King's hair...

All religions have their closeted skeletons and historical fuckups. I assure you, yours is by no means an objection.

However, I am tempted to give you props for listing Rennes-le-Chateau as your location, depending on the context. Do you actually live there, or is it a jibe at that particular skeleton in Christianity's closet?

It's a wink http://www.totse.com/bbs/wink.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/wink.gif) that place is claimed by just about every kind of sects, from Xians to Ufos to cathars, templars, occultists. Everyone has their own version of what happened there, which is a microcosm of what happens in the big world: every religion claiming to be THE only one.
