I take it that you are not a Trinitarian. Good thinking.

Why do you say there is no divorce for women?

What are you referring to as "substitutional (sic) punishment policies"?

Matthew 22:39 The second is exactly like it: "You must love your neighbor as yourself.'

and there are others...........

Nice that you think an O.P. starter does not know what he is talking about.

I'm not sure just what that says of your character, but I doubt that it is a positive.

Now would you like to answer the O.P. in a straight forward way, or are you a moral coward, which was my first impression?

Please prove me wrong.

Reading up on his manipulation of the Bishops.

Check the history of the Apostles Creed.

Do a little answering before I continue educating you.

It is my turn to think you do not know what you are talking about. I am more than willing to help, but I am not your be atch.

The Golden Rule is found in all beliefs systems and pre-dates Judaism and Christianity Way before your 4 Centuries ago....

The book of the Dead has a way better theology or ideology than the garbage that modern religions have deteriorated to.

I used to both learn and teach when decent apologists were around. Now all that I seem to see is people on both sides just bashing each other while not speaking to the issues at all.

Just read what our friend has opined on the actual O.P. to date.

Not a damned thing except for trying to make me his be atch.

I hope he is not, but he is sure making me thing he is a hypocrite and moral coward.

I hate to see intelligent people acting so stupidly. It is quite disappointing.

Your last is true, except for mine, of course.

The question was not of promotion, It was of living by it.

Care to opine?

Yahweh and Jesus are two different beings. One is the Father, the other is the Son, (John 3:16). Jesus told us that he was SENT by God, this God is Yahweh. Moving on, Jehovah God/”Yahweh” NOR Jesus has done evil. It's NOT a thought, it's accurate Knowledge. Jesus lived as a Righteous human when he was on Earth. And died as a Righteous Man. If he hadn't ,our chance of life would be gone! Jesus LOVED all, and he tried to lead them to his Father.

Also, what “Christian” “Judges” Jehovah God or Jesus, especially Jehovah? Because a true Christians doesn't! MANY, though Imperfect sinful beings, can feel that they have the right to judge a Righteous God, It means NOTHING! Considering, he has the last say so. and there's nothing ANY OF US can do to him. So believing that Judging God or Jesus has any effect on them....wrong! the “Golden Rule” is that a Christian should conduct themselves in harmony with all of God’s laws. just as Jesus did when he was on Earth. peace
