Unfortunately, Christians did a lousy job protecting the message of loving tolerance and patience that Jesus passed along throughout the New Testament. However, the gnostic teachings of Christ are there for anyone to appreciate as they look at the true message of Jesus. Isn't dat 'da trute.. ;0) No one is implying that Jesus thought they were all self righteous hypocrites, the message simply discourages Jews from going to ridiculous extremes. People forget their traditional interpretations are only human opinions. This sets the precedent for fundamentalists to prefer their love for the law of the lord vs. the Lord of the law. And we shouldn't forget that the original religious militants were a group who lent their name to our diction.. The Zealots.. And someday, when I have a chance to visit Masada, I'll probably be the only one will clap when the guide tells us how they preferred to die than surrender to the Romans.. I despise religious militancy THAT MUCH... Hawk
