you can't get away from that
@|--| the Orthodox system I like, not too centralized like the Papacy but not practically anarchist like the prots
Don't just leave gf material on a cult because of the cult
"so that no one man can just use it as a cult leader" you mean Jesus? @|--| you can't escape this in Christianity
Well
if the cult leader dies
What are you gamers talking about rn
it becomes a religion
no?
religion
his words are set in stone
Hm
he might as well still be alive
Not really
if you use exegesis and take the bible seriously, he is still alive
yes really
My theory on the existence of Jesus comes from the fact that people usually attributed divine attributes to moral leaders in that time era.
yeah anyways I don't really want to debate the supernatural aspects of christianity because obviously
one side will always lose
Obviously he's dead and they stole his body and made a religion out of his sayings and deluded themselves into thinking he existed.
me theory is the Romans created it to cause dysfunction
That could be part of it.
I just want to join christianity to meet like-minded people
dude
Christianity is so contradictory though.
they are not like minded people
The (((Romans)))?
and a non-degenerate environment to possibly raise children
they are literal NPCs
yeah they are
they don't even question the bible
it's quite odd
I don't understand how anyone could read the books and have a coherent viewpoint unless you cherry pick.
It's apart of the cult.
you have to just accept that "his ways are not our ways"
Question and you go to hell. Doubt is a sin, don't doubt, God works in mysterious ways!
contradiction isn't really contradiction if it's in the bible and your Christian
yeah that has been my main issue with Christianity @Philosophical Misfit
Christianity has a lot of problems
even just questioning whether something should be a certain way if the bible specifies something is heretical
Children are taught this, and then these children turn into adults and they don't put the two and two that it's just a myth like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny because the community around them validates their belief weekly.
