This Jesus Christ fellow, everyone claims to know exactly what "he" said or
meant, but no one can prove that he even existed or, in fact, said
anything. Others wrote scripts hundreds of years after the fact, claiming
to be a record of his words, then many, many others have been re-writing
them for 15-20 centuries, whenever it is convenient, or they need updating
to make credible. One might suspect that everyone using his name is trying
CONvince others that they themselves are infallible, and speaking for "him".
Unfounded belief in anything is called stupidity.
Using the name of others to gain advance or prestige is called deceit or
fraud.
The premise of all con artists is "trust me, it is true even though there is
no proof".
If the Bible were the constitution, this country would not have lasted 10
years. Our forefathers understood this, which is why they demanded
separation of church and government, even though they, themselves, were
deeply religious. Religion can be anything some nut claims, but government
has to suceed, or the entire country fails. Which is why we will see the
government's demise, presided over by the DemocRATS.
