[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even just using Christianity, it doesn't make sense that God first appeared to the Jews many thousands of years after people existed and only to this one tribe of people, but then he brought a son down to earth but somehow didn't convince the jews despite this fulfilling his original plan they should have been on board with. And then somehow also influenced the Muslim world and the Muslims and Christians for most of the time after Jesus hated jews. And then his new religion splintered into hundreds of churches.. Its all so ridiculous.  These religions are just myths from the time period and culture they came from. They have no flow from one century to the next.  [/quote]

At least get your facts straight before you call anything ridiculous. Jesus didn't hate Jews--he was a Jew and always saw himself as a Jew. Islam sees Jesus as a prophet and views itself as representing his true message (Christians disagree). So a fair amount of continuity. And Judaism and Islam have also split into many sects each.

Whatever your background, we get that you hate Christianity specifically, lol. You look sort of ridiculous yourself.[/quote]

But he would have been successful with the Jews if it was actually God's plan to send his son to save them. Like Moses. It makes no sense that God sent his only son as a Jew and most of that race and religion didn't follow him. As the other commenter said, you missed the point.[/quote]
