The Born Again Skeptics Guide to the Bible
Ruth Hurmence Green
A realistic appraisal of the Judeo/Christian message
Fascinating as it is, Jesus appeared offering those who would be his spiritual slave eternal life. What about those who died prior to his proclamation, which apparently included his “father” Joseph. Ruth tells us it was Paul’s opinion that No they would not make it to the great beyond. This is the same take we get from Billy Graham who said that only those who accepted Jesus Christ as their savior and yap, yap would be welcomed in heaven, precluding everlasting happiness to every other religion, those who died before making the great step, etc.
Ruth explicates fascinating and disgusting details from the scriptures. The Christian apologist would come back that is not what the scriptures really mean, and quote other scriptures, but, indeed, that is what the holy book says.
Then, there is the supposition that only those ordained in the book of eternal life written before they were born get the good afterlife. That was not written in Jack T. Chick comics.
Ruth concluded that skepticism is the way to knowledge and that she is proud to be a skeptic.
The bible has been ridiculed in more recent books such as “The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster” by Bobby Henderson and “The Gospel of the Good Fairy” by C.W. Charles, but Ruth takes a more serious scholarly approach.
Ruth was born into a seriously religious family but survived. Perhaps you can also.
Stay skeptical my friends.
