Re: propaganda
saying that the jewish people killed Jesus, demonstrates alot about yourself brian.
It isn't Brian saying the Jewish people killed God; it's the Christians saying the Jewish people killed God.
If you can't even properly interpret a coherent sentence why would you believe you can interpret the schizoid Bible?
it may have very well been the case that this was a sub custom not necessary or relevant to mentionas a part of larger cerimonies.
Think of how much stuff you have to assume to make the Bible even semi-reasonable. Doesn't it bother you that your own butt is the source for most of your fact checking?
Merry Christmas every one.

The world breaks everyone, and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those it cannot break, it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these, you can be sure that it will kill you too, but there will be no special hurry.

If it wasn't Brian saying it directly, how does it demonstrate anything, yet alone a lot, about Brian himself? That's another one of those behind the scenes fact checks where you took the behind literally.
but even a tyro in logic could see he was implying that Christians had some kind of agenda against the jewish people
He didn't imply it, he said it.
Brian writes:
We all know the horrific atrocities that the Jewish people have suffered because they ‘killed’ God
Jews killing the Christ has been used as an excuse to murder them and kick them out of half the countries in Euroupe, half the colleges in America and other atrocities. Don't you, like, read much?
and he uses it like a weapon in his posts.
And if anything Brian was letting them off the hook to some degree.
Brian writes:
but I do not think for one minute that the evangelists realised what far reaching consequences their propaganda would have for the Jewish people.
You do the samething in your final words describing the bible as schizoid, not understanding its teaching or principles.
You're right I wouldn't understand the teachings or principles of the Bible have attended Catholic schools for the last 10 years because they keep making up excuses for the Schizoid God too.
Oh yeah your the fellow that interjects then leaves quickly, now i remember you.
I get a lot more complaints because I won't go away then I do for hit-and-run so I'll guess I'm just about right.
