well, peace as in forgiveness rather than vengeance
Forgiveness for what? Being human? Not being perfect?
"god" might as well have said "Because you cannot jump over the moon, you are a sinner and deserve to spend eternity in HELL, but I will help you if I feel like it!"
It is the old problem/reaction/solution that we see all the time. The kikes invent a "perfect" god and make men less-than-perfect sinners, this provokes a fear reaction (after all, who wants to be roasted on a spit for all eternity), so a solution (jesus) is provided (if you obey)
The insane "god's" standards need to be called into question. (That is, if anyone believes this 'god' exists in the first place).
Fuck that. But I have to say, it's damned effective when it comes to controlling peoples minds. That is what the OP video shows
I didn't set out to leave christianity. I just tried for years to understand it. It only makes sense if one listens to a preacher that they agree with. If they dont agree with that preacher, they will find someone that they can agree with. But to use the bible to try and understand it? Good Fucking Luck with that.
rather than the eye for eye judaic law that demanded vengeance
Even though I am not a Laveyan satanist, that does not mean that the following words of his do not have merit, over and above what the jew bible says.
It is based on common sense.
The Eleven Satanic Rules of the Earth
1. Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked. [A definite forum killer -PSUSA]
2. Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them.
3. When in another's lair, show him respect or else do not go there.
4. If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy.
5. Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal.
6. Do not take that which does not belong to you unless it is a burden to the other person and he cries out to be relieved.
7. Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained.
8. Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself.
9. Do not harm little children.
10. Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food.
11. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him.
you may find the tao te ching of interest. very non 'god'...in fact, there are records of taoist immortals living to the age of 250 years, the most recent being in the last century, documented by a chinese general.....one does not fabricate in imperial or communist china, the penalties were death, unlike our country...you did not lie more than once to the emperor....
that which you call the tao is not the tao, etc...
also, for an oracle that will frazzle your synapses with its spooky accuracy consult the i ching.
