To be fair, he also suggested if they worshipped other gods, they'd be punished in hell for it. That's why I'm not a massive fan. But I like the 'be nice to people' part.
Jesus or God did?
Two very different ideologies.
Jesus and God are part of a trinity, so that's not really an "or" situation, unless you're one of the minority of Nontrinitarian Christians. But I was thinking of John 3:18 in specific:
God really mellowed out after having a kid. Jesus even says he speaks for God. So, yeah, becomes an “or” situation. Just ask the Jews.
The rest, even if I knew enough theology it’s not worth debating with a random person on the internet.
Just ask the Jews what?
How much maintenance goes into our space lasers, obv.
We'll the Torah does not include the new testament, all the Jesus bits, I think that's probably what he's getting at.
And I don't think we need to pretend that the Bible has one consistent message all the way through anyway. There are dozens (or more) examples of pretty major contradictions in the bible. That clarifying question of "god or Jesus said that?" Is really not a crazy question.
