â??Brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death." Matthew 10:21

Jesus strongly approves of the law and the prophets. He hasnâ??t the slightest objection to the cruelties of the Old Testament. Matthew 5:17

â??come not to send peace, but a sword.â? Matthew 10:34

Jesus criticizes the Jews for not killing their disobedient children according to Old Testament law. Mark 7:9


A few other things about Jesus:

Jesus says that those who have been less fortunate in this life will have it even worse in the life to come. Mark 4:25

Jesus sends the devils into 2000 pigs, causing them to jump off a cliff and be drowned in the sea. Clearly Jesus could have simply sent the devils out, yet he chose instead to place them into pigs and kill them. This is called animal abuse. Mark 5:12-13

Jesus kills a fig tree for not bearing figs, even though it was out of season. Jesus must not be as smart as Christians would have us believe, for he was retarded enough to do something this silly. Youâ??d think the son of god (god incarnate) would know that trees donâ??t bear fruit in dry season. Mark 11:13

Luke 12:47 Jesus okays beating slaves.

â??For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.â? (Matthew 5:18-19 RSV) Clearly the Old Testament is to be abided by until the end of human existence itself. None other then Jesus said so.

If thats not sufficient theres many more . Sorry Jesus doesnt sound like a very nice guy at all. Thanks. Loved that cop out that its a metaphor, whatever doesnt fit a christian's views (or hurts his faith) is a metaphor well everything else is to be taken literally.....sorry its all or none man. It's either fiction or non fiction.....Denial aint just a river in egypt my friend.....
