Your welcome FT. Just keep an open mind and compare to your previous historical knowledge. I haven't taken time to examine it for absolute accuracy. I have found the pharisees were noted more for political beliefs and anti slavery revolts than for religion and most were Mithra or Zoroaster offshoots.

It is said man has created Gods in his imagination. If this is true how could their Gods possibly help them? Isn't it true men have fought over their created Gods as far back as the Druids? I grant you it it is true and continues even today.

But true to human psychology, man has made his God difficult of attainment. Furthermore he has mad God with all the human sentimentality,passions and caprices. Even through all those various concepts the true Power of their existence gives that inner voice speaking to him and directing him out of the wilderness of his confusion.

We identify this Power (Or as some name it God) speaking to us as the wee small voice within or gut feeling. This is our true God that gives us the Power to reason. Without a power to reason could you reason? Then this Power to reason must be the fundamental self-existing principle.

How can you destroy this inborn knowledge? Only by denying reason
and putting your fate in the hands of faith in a lie. The bible as written is so unreasonable the best minds available have searched it for truth that meets reason and have never found it.

Its motive is pure and simple. Control of minds of others and a ource of wealth for the ministry. For the Romans a threat of hell if you didn't pay your taxes. Remember, Jesus is supposed to have said,"Render unto Caeser."
