I believe Jesus Christ is God, but not as described in the Bible.
Lets see.
God in Old testament says: "Any woman who commits adultery is to be put to death". (No exception mentioned)
So Jesus comes, and he sees a bunch of men trying to stone a woman for adultery.
Jesus says: "Leave the woman alone, you misogynistic fuckers!!!"
So if Jesus is same God from Old testament, then only two options are possible:
- He somehow forgot to mention exceptions in Old testament
- He changed his mind
Now, 2 gets a common objection from the verse "God doesnt change his mind". But God can change his mind about that verse too, so that verse is invalid.
1 would basically mean God in Old testament gave people an incomplete law which led them to killing women which they actually werent supposed to kill.
But what is a far more likely explanation is that Jesus is not God from Old testament. If we accept that people misinterpreted religion for 4000 years before Jesus came, there is not much hope that they wouldnt misinterpret it for 2000 years after Jesus.
So Jesus was God who came to Earth to CHANGE religion, but writers of New testament confused him for God of the Old testament.
this is why they made up a story about God being killed on cross, which makes no sense because God cant be killed unless he wants to die anyway and basically just self-destructs.
But I dont know why would Christians want to believe in the story that Jesus committed suicide, or at least tried to but he cant die anyway because he is God.
So they made up a story how Jesus "sacrificed himself" for them. But what exactly did Jesus sacrifice? He didnt die. He didn't lose anything except maybe a weekend which he could have spent elsewhere.
So Jesus was God, but Bible is clearly false. No person above 150 IQ can seriously believe the nonsense Bible teaches.
Also, Bible is literally polytheist because it teaches that there are 3 Gods, or that 1 God has 3 minds which is same as saying there are 3 Gods.
