Worship Is Not Necessary

IF Jesus was a great teacher and had all these amazing things to say, Paul would have elaborated upon them.

IF Jesus was born of a virgin, Paul would have mentioned it. The idea of messiah as propounded by Christianity RELIES on Jesus being born of a virgin.

Jesus was a militant rebel, trying to force the kingdom of god, like so many in his day and age did, but the kingdom of god was just an independent Israeli state.

Paul made up a religion on the fly. Jesus' teachings are nothing special, and sometimes hideous.

It's the Emperor not wearing clothes things. So much of modern spiritual stuff is based on Jesus being someone special and Israel being God's chosen people. Neither premise is true, both are false.

The Teachings of Jesus (regardless of the source) are the real deal. Most of the rest of the Bible is BS (as usually taught). Paul did not carry out the Great Commission found in Matthew 28:18-20. Egyptology may be the key to properly understanding the Bible. Also consider the Gospel of Thomas and the Book of Enoch. I don't trust any of the Gods and Goddesses. Jesus was opposed to the Royal Model of Divinity and Governance. Jesus could have been a rebel Egyptian insider/whistleblower. Jesus did not command people to build temples and cathedrals...in which to worship and praise him. So who might Christians really be worshipping and praising on Sun-God Day? Could human-sacrifice, worship, and praise really be reptilian requirements? I think we will always need art, music, architecture, churches, clergy, fellowship, etc...but without penitence, human-sacrifice, worship, praise, gods, and goddesses. I like the idea of an Ecumenical Namaste Mass based upon the Latin Mass...without worship, praise, penitence, and sacrifice...which effectively communicates Namaste Constitutional Responsible Freedom. Now they're really gonna burn me.

Better Dead Than Rep.
