About 1/3rd of the people on this planet call themselves Christians, although peculiarly only about 1 in 10 have ever read the Bible. Personally I think this number is hopelessly optimistic with maybe only 1in 100 to 1000 having ever really read the Bible. Yup so about 90 % of Christians believe in something they've never read about. In order to partially remedy this, I'm starting a new series called 'The Bible for Beginners' where I will read highlights from the Bible to see if Christians actually subscribe to the Holy book they have never read, or not.

In this episode we look at the central character in Christianity, the figure of Jesus Christ. He mostly crops up in two places in the Bible, in the Gospels and in the Revelation of JC. However when he does turn up in Revelation he is not exactly wearing his 'Prince of Peace' hat... indeed he threatens to make some woman sick, then to kill her children (yup, Jesus Christ, child killer, Revelation 2:23... way to stay classy!). Not content with just threatening to make people sick and to kill their children JC then goes on to say he will give his minions a rod of iron to smash up everyone else. If this character were in any other book, he would fall squarely into the clinically psychotic category!

This is then compared to JC in the Gospels (Luke 19:26), where he commands everyone who disagrees with him to be bought before him and killed. He then goes on to instruct his disciples to go and steal a horse for him. Nice role model!

Fuck! What happened to the gentle, lamb of god, turn-the-other-cheek Jesus everyone was taught to believe in? Jesus is like Muhammad in the sense that he sounds like a bat shit crazy, self-absorbed murderer cultist.

I like the part when Jesus kills a fig tree when it doesn't give him fruit... even though it's out of season.

If Kirk killed God... then what does that make Kahn? The good guy for Christians?

Wow.. this video totally destroys everything all Christians claim about their religion of peace. I used to point out God telling people to stone children to death for blasphemy in the Old Testiment, but now I have MUCH better points to illustrate the evil of their religion. Thank you TF!!!

thank you for this series of videos... i was raised jehovah's witness, (13 years) i remember as a kid not believing that a god who endorsed genocide was someone we should idolize and cultivate a relationship with.

A big Freudian rod of iron, to kill children with death.

@WeezerGeek182 of course. did you think that just because i said your 'lord' is the greatest mass murderer of children (and adults/animals) in all history - which the bible attests to - i thought he's bad?

....sounds like a lovely being to me. i wish my father were so compassionate. the damn fellow hasn't even tried to kill me once!!!

@andthereisntone Well. you can think what you want. I love the Lord with all my heart. You can think he's an awful awful creator and being, but that doesn't give him any less power and make him any less real than he is.

@andthereisntone : Yes, much like whats going on now...isnt it? The Bible is tame compared to whats going on now in the world....The world is filled with death with so much more to offer....We don't need God to destroy humanity, we our doing it ourselves....fact.
