Hi Chris, My problem is that he refuses to even attempt to substantiate his assertions on historicity and the gospels being myths. I find his musings on morality and justice rambling and incoherent. And thanks for your editorially impartial assessment of the Barker/White debate. Barker won? If you ...

Evil then is only human to human when they know they are doing evil and intend harm. As evolving creatures, all we ever do, and ever can do, is compete or cooperate. Cooperation we would see as good as there are no victims created. Competition would be seen as evil as it creates a victim. We all ar...

[ I've heard online that much of the Jesus teachings were Jewish intepretations of Eastern thought. I don't know what I believe on that, as I have not looked too far into it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLVpTQJqijU One of the bibles Jesus' obviously believed in the third or single eye. Matthew ...

[ I watched your Jesus Madman video.I really think you should try to understand what Jesus and the bible actually teach before posting your distorted interpretations and those of others. There's an abysmal lack of understanding and disregard for context evident. Chastisement without correction just...

[ In passing I might add, just where do mutated primates get their moral outrage from? It appears an especially developed faculty in new atheist apologists. It appears that our morals are based on our natural will to survive and is a part of evolution and our genes. I do not think this baby know ye...

[ You will notice it is a litany of moral outrage against evil behaviour. Taking the first two cases he mentions of Saddam Hussein and Slobodon Milosevic my question to you Gnostic Bishop and to Chris is this. How might a just God, as impartial judge of all,acquit these men and remain just? I decid...

[ I've always interpreted the Father and Son thing as the Hero's sacrifice as oposed to some horrific thing. I don't know why. Perhaps you have read Joseph Campbell's Heroes of 1000 Faces. He had Jesus as one of those hero archetypes. I follow that thinking but not for the hero part but for the arc...

Having another innocent person suffer for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral. Exactly. The idea that God the father had his own son tortured and murdered is disgusting and raw evil. If any of us had our own sons tortured and ki...

[ Hi and welcome to BT. :) Please share your worldview with us. ] Let me give you two short links. If they interest you the longer third might as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR02ciandvg&feature=BFa&list=PLCBF574D The thinking shown below is the Gnostic Christian’s goal as taught b...

Hi Gnostic Bishop, Thanks for your reply. I'm questioning the foundations of your beliefs. It seems to be gnosticism with a particular slant on the gospels as myths. That's why I asked what myths you were referring to. You seem to want to avoid the question of historicity which is a major premise f...
