(because Reason, of course, sees the bible as utter nonsense and primitive babble). The mythic Christ taught that Race and religion gave Chosen People--special racial status. The bible is full of primitive, bronze age hate and racism. With his own Race, Jesus would normally heal by direct contact. However, with the Gentile woman he refused to touch her. In fact he refused to heal her and wanted nothing to do with her because she was not one of the Racially Pure and Chosen. He likens her to a Dog and states it is not right that he give assistance (bread) to Dogs when he is more comfortable feeding the Children of Israel. She is quick and witty, however, and she says: "Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs. 29 And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter" He shows no compassion. Rather he sounds like a Hitler or a White Supremist in reverse. Why does this poor woman have to beg and acknowledge that she is racially inferior (acording to primitive Racist lights) before Jesus will heal her (not because she is a human) BUT because she is willing to liken herself to an unworthy dog of the wrong race and color?? Because of her Race she was unworthy of grace and compassion. But after a few editions she gets her daughter healed at a distance as a sop to cerebus! Yep...that loud-mouthed hero of Christianity was not like Luther at all!! Luther was not going to settle for crumbs. That huge brewery he ran from his yard needed large loaves of bread to accompany the ale--not mere crumbs!!
