Poor Rockheaded Rocky! He doesn't get the facts here, Art. He is incapable of
understanding what he reads...he doesn't get for instance that the stories, even if
written down and copied forthrightly for a thousand years, were still mostly LIES. They
were myths, fairy stories made up by people who were trying to control others. Or
worse they were written down to actually HIDE facts about mystical truths from
people! (that's what a "parable is: Let him who has ear hear...). Just because a lie is
written correctly a thousand times, does not make it true. Secondly, no book has ever
been without mistakes. And the Koran, the Bible the Tanakh and ALL so called holy
texts have been edited, mistakes were made, errors in copying and translation were
made, changes that were unauthorized were made. Just like the Troll bot fucks with
my writing...(or should I say how the troll bot is now going to ***** with YOUR
writing...), so it goes. Things go into the archives that should not be there, confusing
people as to what was written first.
There is no "original" text of the Koran, nor of the Bible of the Christians, nor of the
Tanakh of the Hebrews. And each one bears numerous mistakes, mistranslations and
down right added lies, half truths and political mumbo-jumbo that does not even mean
anything to us anymore. "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's?" There hasn't been a
legitimate Caesar for a thousand years...and what made Jesus say gold belonged to
Caesar because it had Caesar's portrait on it, and not to God, whom every Jew knew
created all gold, and who owned the world? Simple, it was INJECTED as a statement
by early Christians in order to put the Romans off the scent about them disrespecting
Caesar. It was a political move! "We're not bad people, See? We WANT to pay our
taxes! This is Caesar's gold!" Yeah, right. I think God would have a bone to pick with
them there! Point is, Jesus NEVER said it. But we keep repeating it anyway.
Amazing that Rocky chooses the Koran, it was said to have been "remembered
VERBATIM" by Mohammed, after he heard Gabriel (an Angel!) speak to him in a goat
cave...(Odd how a murderous empire builder who tried to wipe a lot of people off the
face of the earth and whose adherents are STILL trying to do this, gets away with
saying an Angel spoke to him! But he did! Even though it is obvious that he stole most
of the Koran's language from the Jews and Christians). Mohammed himself was
ILLITERATE. He could not read or write. He had to have his wife's accountants and
clerks write down what he recalled from his conversations with Gabriel! Is there any
way to know that THEY did not change his words? He himself could not have read
them! They could have written down what he said while he was alive and then
completely changed it after he died, tossing out the old scriptures! Anyway, moot
point. The point here really is no writing is always completely valid for any reason. We
can only INTERPRET what we read and come to our own conclusions on what it
might really be saying. All this crap about God says this and The Bible says that, is
just that, crap. Like I said, read 'Misquoting Jesus.' It is an eye opener!
