Hi,

It's good to see that you're now expanding your arguments as opposed to merely quoting passages from the Bible.

Conflicts within the Bible do not concern me greatly. After all, these texts were written by different people and at different times and with different points of view. So, I expect there to be some form of confusion of conflict over certain aspects.

I have no dispute with you over the commercialisation of Christmas and Easter.

The main point I've been trying to get across is that God's Book has been raped and tainted by man for the purpose of man, to gain power over the masses. Not only have parts been edited, and removed, but a large portion of texts were not included. All of this was done to ensure the man-constructed version of the Bible ensured allegiance and devotion of the masses to pay homage to the Church. In other words, for the Church to keep and maintain power over the people.

The whole mission of Jesus wasn't just to teach the word of God to the masses, but to make God available to all and sundry without dogma, without doctrine and without the requirement to pay homage to institutions, or superfluous ceremony. God is something that anyone can beleive in and communicate with, without the need for churches, temples, ceremony, and all the other strings that are now attached by the churchian dogma.

The fact that you beleive that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute shows that you have not read any of the texts that enlighten you on what was excluded from the Bible. She was not only a well respected woman of fine virtue, but the wife of Jesus and the mother of his children.

Although you may have read the Bible and understand it, you also owe it to yourself to dig deeper into the history of the book and gain more knowledge on what is missing. While the Bible is a source of much information, there is much more out there that you should know and understand. In its current form, the Bible does not portray the complete or fully accurate account of Jesus, the Apostles and history.

I am not a religous person and I don't pay homage to any such dogma. Perhaps that is why I am more open minded and seek to find all the information. My faith and beleifs are not cast in stone, nor are they moulded by doctrine, and I find that refreshing and comforting for it enables me to explore and gain more understanding and information, without the fear of having any predisposed ideas being challenged or shattered.

I'm not challenging your beleif in God - nor the existence of God, or Jesus. I am questioning your undisputed loyalty to an institution (and the limited form of the current Bible and how it is taught) that has spoon fed you into a manufactured and limited concept. There's more to the picture than the church would like you to see. Furthermore, the missing information doesn't belittle the importance of God, Jesus or his teachings. It actually limits the power of the church, and that is why new Biblical discoveries are not included in the Bible and why the congregational masses will not be made privvy to this information.

In the end, we can go around in circles forever. I doubt that I'll convince you and you aren't convincing me. The best we can achieve is to "agree to disagree".

By this post a can see that you are very miss informed.

THERE are 2 MARY"S, Mother of Jesus, and Mary Magdalene. Why didnt you ask me this.

You dont even no what the mission of Jesus was and you are telling me what you think without any prof and I am giving you all the prof you want.
I said what happen to the texts and I wouldent be surprised that there would be more text that arent fruitfull. What didnt you understand from my second last post?
