[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And Jesus said the ONLY way to god or heaven is through him. The ONLY way. Because through his death, our sins can be forgiven so that we can make it to heaven. So this would have to be a lie too.[/quote]

You need to read the Bible the way it was meant to be read and not the way your fundie Southern Baptist Sunday School teacher taught you.

When Jesus said "I am the way", most scholars believe he meant my way is the way.  In other words, love God and love each other.  Period.  End of discussions.  Most Christians (certainly not all) add a bunch of bullshit to His words-

"Love everyone-as long as they are Christians"
"Love everyone-unless they are gay"
"Love everyone-but it's ok to kill some people"
"Love everyone-but not people who have abortions"

On and on and on....

That is NOT what Jesus taught.  He said "Love God" and "Love each other".  No qualifiers.  He was a perfect example of all that we should be working towards- loving, compassionate, and forgiving. When he said "I am the way, the truth, the light no one comes to the Father except by me" He meant that you will never be a part of that collective consciousness of love, of good, unless you learn to be like me.  His death viewed correctly was the ultimate example of love.
