In his book "Not Paul but Jesus" published in 1823 Jeremy Bentham uses Acts and the epistles of Paul to reveal an angry, egotistic, manipulative, argumentative, hypocritical, embezzling cheat and liar, who contradicted the then accepted teachings of Yeshua, claiming a direct personal contact with him in the afterlife. As revealed in his letters Paul also declared the teachings he spread to be his own and publicly boasted about having denounced Peter, the chosen 'rock of the church', and openly dissed the twelve established apostles for not having done more than he in spreading the love.

I think it's debatable if the guy was real but even so, he was a complete neurotic fraud.

What are you trying to say biko?

So you registered this id today Jan 19 and have been online for 2 hours 52 mins just to criticize Christianity?

And you're female (supposedly), small time now you'll start giving evil looks to others because you think they're showing off their relationship status?

The time you're supposed to be looking for relationship, you're busy with this stuff?

It's been a few hours since I first read this pure, complete juvenile garbage post.

nlPoster, instead of personal attacks and acting like a psychic, why not actually address the topic at hand? Then again, it's insecure Christians like you who think any topic remotely challenging your "faith" is an attack on self. I owe you no explanations. It's apparent that your little baby cakes were inflamed by my OP. The last few choice words in your verbose was the icing on the cake. FYI, I'm too advanced to be bothered with "relationship status" lol.

Anyways, actually address the topic or skedaddle.

I believe the OP is self explanatory

Would try to read through the book soon.

Would have been better if you quoted the verses he used for the points you raised.

I want to see them.

Don't wanna read the entire book

Please don't open my eyes too much I want to remain blind "to see them".
