For starters, let's take a look at the Old Testament in the Bible. There is no archaeological evidence whatsoever to support that Moses or Abraham ever existed. There is no historical or archaeological evidence to support that an Israelite named Joseph was ever second in command in Egypt under the pharaoh. All of the mass invasions recorded in the old Testament where Israel took possession of the so called promised land did not happen either. Historical records and modern archaeology have proven these facts and has shown that the supposed history of the Bible is not accurate at all. Some of the foreign lands that Israel supposedly defeated in the old testament and put there kings to death did not even have kings when these invasions supposedly took place; They were small farming communities or towns that were just starting out ... showing that the OT was actually written at a much later date than the dates given in the books themselves.

And to go hand in hand with that, there is no archaeological evidence to support that Jesus ever lived either. If all of the stories about him healing, preaching and causing such an enormous fuss in the town, cities and villages where he lived were true, why is there no record of it? There were a number of noted Jewish historians alive at that time, and none of them ever mentioned Jesus at all....

So if the records show that the Bible as a whole is historically inaccurate and none of its main characters never existed, then what does that say about the belief system? It may be a "religion" but it is a false ideology being fed to the masses as being a historically truth. And it is a "religion" that has caused much fear, violence and unrest in people's personal lives and in the world.

Hence: It is a man made system of fear and guilt.
