Ten rules. If you break any one of them you will burn in hell for all eternity. But he loves you.

The sixth commandment is "Thou shall not kill.". God violated His own commandment in ordering the destruction of entire cities, just to allow the Jews to have a homeland in the Middle East. The Bible confirms that God ordered the killing of thousands of people. Isn't this an open and shut case for the hypocrisy of the God of the Bible? Believers will tell you there is justified and non-justified killing; thus God only committed justified murder.

Wouldnt it have been justified for Peter to use his sword in the garden of gethsemane? After all they were coming to kill the son of GOD!! But no, Jesus told him to put away his sword. Jesus believed in love and non-violence. But then again there was that hissy fit he throws when he sees that the temple has been converted to a sleazy market place. Jesus loses his control and throws everyone out.

These are stories, some say myths. I see plenty of contradictions. Some due to tampering by mortals, some due to tampering by the church.

We are all gods, we just dont understand how to wield all that power in a safe way. Imagine if you were a god and every thought you had would manifest itself. Pretty scary if you consider that everyone has this power. Time to start using the brain for what it was meant for and trust our hearts for guiding our actions.

May you all experience the oneness that we are.
