Religion, in it's present form is a scam. Because it's been hijacked by "men when sabi" to enrich themselves.

It has always been a scam. The difference between now and then is that the scam was supposed to unify society under one agenda and ruler, now it is used by few to enrich themselves and by most to resolve their existential angst. Funny thing is that, the religion contributes to their existential angst.

Your quote about many americans being atheist is a more modern development. The truth is that historically, America was founded and built on Christian principles. Most of Europe and the US were historically christian nations. They became great and powerful nations while they were very much christian nations. Time changes and so do people, if modern Europe and US is more atheistic, that doesn't change their christian history.

America wasn’t founded on Christian principles.
America and Europe became great because they stole wealth from other places or their own people and used it to develop their countries. After acquiring the wealth, It was reason and rationality that enabled the development of their countries not ancient Jewish superstitions and fables.

America wasn’t founded on Christian principles. And what are these so called Christian principles?!!! A significant amount of Christians in America are hateful, ignorant, and plain stupid. Every societal advancement has been, and is, opposed by them. Christian principles as far as I’m concerned are hate and ignorance.
The fact that Christians see their own religion as good and loving is a pathetic joke that has been recognized over the years. The descriptions of their god, doctrines, and dogmas signify hatefulness but somehow they pretend that they are good. Hilarious

But the widespread existence in 18th-century America of a school of religious thought called Deism complicates the actual beliefs of the Founders. Drawing from the scientific and philosophical work of such figures as Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Isaac Newton, and John Locke, Deists argued that human experience and rationality—rather than religious dogma and mystery—determine the validity of human beliefs. In his widely read The Age of Reason, Thomas Paine, the principal American exponent of Deism, called Christianity “a fable.” Paine, the protégé of Benjamin Franklin, denied “that the Almighty ever did communicate anything to man, by…speech,…language, or…vision.” Postulating a distant deity whom he called “Nature’s God” (a term also used in the Declaration of Independence), Paine declared in a “profession of faith”:

I believe in one God, and no more; and I hope for happiness beyond this life. I believe in the equality of man; and I believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and in endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy.

Very true. Not surprisingly, most never question how a jewish god ended up with Italian mouthpieces or how the “vicar on earth” of a jewish god has mostly been Italian or some other European. Truth is, the Europeans by way of the Romans hijacked the Jewish god and made it into a supernatural white man. Don’t believe me, just look at the roof of their Sistine chapel and try to argue otherwise. Look at all the imagery they use. Look at their history and who they referred to as the “enemies of Christ” in their Dum Diversas.



Jews did not kill anyone. The Jews killed Jesus thing is just antisemitism of the Romans and later Europeans. The scriptures were doctored to make Jews the antagonists because the Romans were in a struggle with Jews over Roman Hegemony.



They never went to Rome and Christianity did not start in Rome. Modern day Turkey is where the religion was ironed out. It didn’t get to Rome until later and “Peter the first pope” is a lie spread by the Roman Catholics. Constantine did not admire them because of “resilience and brotherhood”. He adopted it because his mother referred him to a christian priest called Sylvester in order to get absolution for his moral deviancy. Constantine went to this Christian priest named Sylvester after being rejected by his regular pagan priest by the name of Sopater, who basically inferred that Constantine was to morally corrupt for absolution. Talking about Constantine’s mother, she was good at finding things. In order to solidify the new state religion, they decided to create holy sites for the ignorant rabble to visit. So Constantine’s mother “found” the empty tomb, the true cross, and also selected the village that became Nazareth.



The evolution of Christianity and spread in Europe was not accomplished by one emperor or pope. It was spread and changed over time. While Constantine made them the state religion in the early 4th century, they didn’t attain significant power until they got Theodosius to ban other pagan religions in 380. The christians then went on a rapine and murderous spree over the properties of the other pagan cults.



The only reason the Romans saw it fit to adopt the Old Testament is to support the new. Eclectic Jewish philosophers, including Paul, created those New Testament scriptures and the incarnation of the Sun God (Jesus) is based on certain ideas in the Old Testament.

Wow

Talk to GOD Almighty directly HE will hear you.

4 different accounts of The Resurrection of the same person in the 4 gospels and no one actually saw the resurrection take place.

If this is not a scam then what else is a scam?

In Matthew: Mary Magdalene and the other Mary saw an angel.
In Mark: Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome saw a young man.
In Luke: The women saw 2 men.
In John: [Notice there was no angel or young man. Here it was just Mary Magdalene, Peter and the other disciple]
"Mary Magdalene went to the tomb". "So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple". "Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb". "The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen". "Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside". "Then the disciples went back to where they were staying"
