(22,564 posts)and the move of "truth" from Jerusalem to Rome... disastrous. A creed sponsored by a psychopath, Constantine... lovely. Later, tax laws and employment tied to church membership... so spiritual. Crusades... antisemitic laws... However, the gospels were written by Gnostics and I have no problem with their inner messages, but no one else can see past the purported biography level, despite all the inconsistencies in the biographies... one really has to wear blinkers to never question anything. Blind faith is for stupids.
I don't know enough about other religions... shoot! It took decades to realize what I was really reading... so I quit churches !!!!
