Why is a little investigative inquiry into the history of your religion such a bad thing?
Yes, I’m speaking directly to christians again. Some of you say you’ve studied your religion and found it to be true. I think you just investigated the bible from bible-believing sources such as the Christian Science Monitor or other religious based sources. If you perform an objective search of the history of the Jewish and Christian religions, you find that the evidence points elsewhere. You find that most of the stories originated elsewhere, and that neither is historically accurate, although they do use historical events as backdrops. It’s akin to writing a WWII novel using historical characters and events, just changing the names to prevent being sued. But somehow you all seem to miss this. So again, I ask, have you really searched for truth, or have you simply searched for confirmation of what you think you know? Why is it so hard to look objectively for the truth about your religion?
Because they are afraid they will learn something they don’t want to know.
