Why I Am Not a Christian Easter Thoughts

April 16 Why I am not a Christian Easter Thoughts On Easter Sunday, I often think about Christianity I don’t understand why anymore would believe such nonsense The essential story makes no sense An imaginary all powerful deity that no one has ever seen or heard Except for psychotic patients or Drug users Comes down to earth and impregnates a married woman Who has never had sex for some reason And her husband is okay with that Believes her wild story And still does not have sex Until after the baby is born Then there is total silence Nothing about Jesus’s childhood 30 years later he emerges Preaching love, peace and brotherhood And denouncing the corrupt temple leaders And the Jewish leaders as well The miracles also don’t make any sense In the real world, you can’t turn fish into bread Can’t walk on water Can raise the dead etc. etc. Just does not happen In the world, we live in And has not happen since those ancient days Then the last supper makes some sense Jesus knows he is about to be betrayed But he does not confront Judas Does not run away Does not encourage his disciplines To run away with him The whole Jesus Mary M story Also, does not make sense Jesus must have been married Or he was gay There is no doubt Either way the story makes no sense The crucifixion is the only part of the story I buy Jesus was put to death because he was a rebel leader And the Romans tolerated no dissent To the Roman’s right to conquer and rule The rising from the dead stories All contradict one another And Jesus was either walking as a normal human being Or was a ghost The door was rent open as if by lightening Or not Finally, we have been waiting over 2,000 years for his return You would think if the story is remotely true He would have turned up by now Except he has As many lunatics claim to be Jesus in the flesh all delusional of course and that is what I think of Christianity nothing but fairy tales and mass delusions surrounding a kernel of truth Love one again Treat each other right Don’t be consumed with greed But couldn’t that message Be made simpler Without all the associated nonsense? So, on this day I say Open your minds And discard the nonsensical elements of Christian thought And follow the true teachings of Jesus Even if you don’t believe in the imaginary man in the sky
