[QUOTE="0311, post: 2312360, member: 26943"] I've never been a smile feel good Jesus Loves You Christian. I've always felt God was an austere, taciturn diety,and that Jesus was his obedient Son. As far as I know, Jesus was the last of the Gods, coming rather late. But he was the Son of the Most Powerful. None of the others have had staying power. I don't deny being a pick and choose Christian. I choose to go by the Red Letter quotes. When I used to go to Church, mainly on account of my children, I felt annoyed by the prayers that seemed to go on forever, repetetive in nature, asking for favors. Jesus said not to do that. Not to let people see you pray. When I'd bring this point up to preachers, they'ed point out that He prayed openly. But in my skewered line of thinking, Jesus was a God and could do as he pleased. The preachers would say, "Well, that's what He said, but what He really meant was..." Another point of contention I had, and still do is that they say Jesus was scourged by soldiers. My King James says Pilate scourged Him. [/QUOTE]
