God also promised not to flood the world again because humans are inherently wicked.

As a C'thulhu Monster you should probably be really offended by all of this.  No floods=No Rising of Rlyeh.

Saul of Tarsus existed. The misogyny was added after he was dead along with other "corrections?" to his letters.

I think you'll find that there was plenty of misogyny prior to Paul and after him.  In many ways Paul was relatively tolerant of women for a Church father, and that in itself is darkly humorous.  Thou shalt not suffer a vag-beast to speak in Church, as they must develop the capacity for silence.

A reed raft was the first one.

Samael was still a member of El Shaddai's court and a Angel whose job was to tempt people and destroy **** then. He was made into Satan by the Christians.

You might be interested in this video that sets out the difference between Christs GOD, and Yahweh. And how Christ actually trolled the Pharisees with the "Who would give their hungry children stones and serpents.." story.

Basically, the OT God is not the same as the NT GOD. 

Very very insightful for those interested.

Except the Biblical Jesus was a fictional character.

An amazingly long lived memetic virus. Could be said for all religions.

It most certainly could be said for all religions.

Zoroaster has been around over a thousand years longer.

The man Yeshua, whether He existed or not, is to me besides the point, to me, its His message that will save/free humanity.

Love GOD, love neighbour, love self..

Just out of interest, did you watch the vid?

No thanks. I don't want to be carpet bombed with bull**** on my YouTube feed.

"Jesus's" messages came from a version of the 'Edicts of Ashoka' and 'Jakata Tales' aka 'Aesop's Fables'.

So maybe you should give the real messengers credit where credit is due.

Yet, the so called message has not saved humanity, what is the hold up?

Traffic and problems with a bridge on I-95. His disciples are still waiting at a West Chester rest stop.

I have little doubt that the young Yeshua had contact with eastern philosophies..

And I have zero problem with THAT.

That's simply because not enough folk have.....loved GOD, neighbour, and self. :no:

As we can tell by the insane state of the world.

Hypocrisy on every level.

By everyone.

Although certain individuals have managed to attain such a state of love/being/consciousness..

We know them as saints, yogis, and bodhisattvas.

CH it isn’t fair or accurate to blame a lack of adherence to a specific religious belief namely yours, as the sole reason for the problems in the world. There are numerous approaches to navigating life and not all of them are solely based on religious texts like the Bible, or need to be to be effective. 
 

CH you are stuck in extreme dualism.

Bodhisattvas are "ideals" of the way you want to live. Many aren't even real people. 

Luke Skywalker could serve as a Bodhisattva.

Your joking right?

He told the truth of love, forgiveness, and an inner divinity that the whole of Mankind are created as/with.

That's why He was nailed to a cross, (not good for the business of the Selfish ones).

And yet that wasn't enough to stop Him, nor His message.

But love is a universal tenant, not just Christian one.

Love is just a neurochemical reaction in the brain.

Luke could serve as an example, in fact the whole movie is a classic, Hero's Journey.

But, there have, maybe is, actual Bodhisattvas too.

If that's your belief, then that's your life.

Good luck!

Enjoy.

It's not a belief, but a fact.

Hi Crazy Horse

That would include you as well. I don't see the world the same way you do and see many examples of people loving others and having empathy.
