The first thing I realized was that it is a glorified history book full of tales, some will argue that its Allegory for the purpose of conveying a message. There is no proof of any of the events in the Bible of actual world history. We can find Dinosaurs, Egyptian Mummies in real life but no artifacts from biblical times. How is that possible if Bible history is only 6k years compared to Egyptian history, which is 12k and more and Dinosaurs is millions of years?
When I said it was all nonsense, I was exaggerating because I did learn valuable lessons about Human Nature. The most important thing being that humans need an “Operating System”. Religions are operating systems. Unfortunately, if the operating system I depend on to navigate life doesn’t favor me, my conscience will tell me to shun it.
With that said, Christianity doesn’t favor my race. Neither does Islam, Judaism or any of the major world religions. The same people that enslaved my ancestors believed in that same book and only gave it to us for 2 reasons. 1 was to encourage obedience to our masters and 2 was to (wait) on salvation. Many of us are still waiting while the World and Time is progressing without us.
