[QUOTE="isaacfugarino, post: 2468310, member: 695562"] Because they have diverted so far from the core of the bible. What is the core of the bible? The four gospels which narrate the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. In this list of affirmations that follow I intentionally repeat myself. The reasoning behind this is that by my saying I am anti any of the followings things I listed, modern Christians get the idea you are against Jesus Christ. In the Christian realm it is taboo to be against most of the things I have listed. This is why I followed up every statement up with the affirmation that I am pro Jesus of Nazareth. When you get kicked out of church for being against these things that are inconsistent with Jesus you will understand. It is ironic that Western style Christianity looks nothing like Jesus Christ. It looks nothing like the one who they claim to represent. If you are skeptical of Western Christianity, you have every right to be. They have diverted very far from what Jesus taught. Read the words in red and you will see this for yourself. I am anti religion, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti man made dogma, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti man made doctrine, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti man made religious rituals, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Western religiously imposed belief systems inconsistent with Jesus of Nazareth teachings, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti speculative Western theological speculative doctrines, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am Anti western traditional additions to Jesus of Nazareth’s teachings, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Judaism, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Mosaic Law, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Levitical law, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti war, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti violence, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Christian chaos, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Christian dissension and disunity, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti Apostle Paul imposed cultural and customary additions to Jesus of Nazareth’s teachings, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti get rich quick religious doctrine, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti put money in a church box and expect twice as much money to pop out, hocus pocus tithing gimmicks, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti false Christianity, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti emotionally charged delusional diatribes from a pulpit, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am pro words written in red, pro Jesus of Nazareth. I am anti guilt trips or fear trips, pro Jesus of Nazareth. Peel away the layers of the Judeo/ Christian, Apostolic additives ridden Bible and you get to the only teachings that matter. The teachings and the life of Jesus of Nazareth. there is a bible that represents my line of thought as well. The Gideons Bible which contains the four gospels with the only additions being the beautiful Psalms and wisdom of the Proverbs. Jesus Christ was against many of these things also which is what made him an enemy of big religion in those days. The Pharisees were the representatives of man made religion back in those days. They hated Jesus so much that they conspired to have him killed and were successful. You are a liar. Jesus never commanded for any prostitute to be stoned. As a matter of fact he saved a prostitute from being stoned. For that matter I dont see anywhere in the gospels where it is commanded for to stone a prostitute. That is in the Judaic Old Testamant Levitic laws. And if you will read about the tenth item on my list it clearly says I am anti Mosaic, and anti Levitical Laws. Secondly it says nowhere in the gospels that if you dont give everything you have to Jesus you will die. That is rediculous. You are probably referring to the rich man who said he wanted to be one of the disciples and follow Jesus around with them. Jesus' response was to take all his possessions and GIVE IT TO THE POOR! How else was this guy supposed to travel on foot with Jesus 10-20 miles a day with all his furniture, entire wardrobe and the kitchen sink? No, Jesus traveled light my friend. Thank you, that was a nice comment. What is one or two ways I could be kinder to myself? Paul makes commentas about women not having braided hair, jewelry, and the rule of wearing a head covering, then follows it up by saying it is custom based only. Yet some chuches will excommunicate you if you dont comply with a mere custom.Paul even said it was a custom and not God based. [/QUOTE]
