augh so. whenever (it's rare) that i have a discussion about christianity/jesus/etc with a mainstream conventional christian it's just filled with their complicating assumptions based on nothing -- it's like some enterprise software form of religion

like no. jesus was not "testing" people every time he did something shitty aaaaaugh

it's not fair for me to get mad at someone for not understanding my thelema-ass mantling conception of christ, but it *is* fair for me to disagree that a guy is "timeless" and "infallible" when he sided with the slave masters over the slaves

(my infallibility take -- god is "infallible" in the same way gravity is, but is not a person; you can channel the divine but it's not a two-way binding. it's like filling up a container -- it fulfills the potential of the container, but the container is *still there*)

if i had gotten the chance to explain this we might have come to a better understanding, less heat more light? oh, well, next time
