Not so easy to get out of a cult. Usually takes an existential crisis.

I think a lot of Christians walk around with doubts. The biggest one is the belief that you only go to heaven if you believe in Jesus as your savior. Which means Christians are suppose to look at Buddhists doing loads of good deeds, and secretly believing them guys are going to hell. That one alone must cause some doubt for a lot of people.

I see a Golem is a clay figure brought to life by magic. Is this part of Kabbalah studies though ?

Yeah, it's the one quote from the bible that most Christians conveniently ignore: "What I have done, you shall do also, and much more."

Kabbalah is quite hard to study, not my cup of tea either, but I can see there's some real power there.

Of course, Jesus was the son of God, like you and me

It's the mystical version of Judaism, like Sufism is of Islam, and Christ consciousness is of Christianity.

It's a whole spiritual science, didn't resonate with me, but I've met some older guys who have studied it, and they were proper switched on.

I don't know about Abraham, but it does seem though that the Jews have been granted some proper insider knowledge, ie Kabbalah etc.

I hear you bro

You blame AI for what ?

Is that why Jews have historically had some detractors. You guys went around telling everyone that you The Chosen Ones Jokes aside, them Kabbalah dudes do seem to have some insider knowledge.

I don't know bro, if a psycho don't want me to draw a picture of his God, why be a dick and draw a picture of his God ? Meet people where they at.

Yeah, don't mess with fundamentalist Muslims, no fear of death there.

I love making fun of Jesus too, it's just when people say with such conviction that he didn't exist as a historical figure, I don't see that as very scientific. (It's almost like that old atheist argument - you can't prove that God exists, therefore that somehow proves that God don't exist. It's silly.)

I'm not doubting the imaginary part. I'm just talking about historical figures, even if ultimately they are imaginary.

Moses had the force with him also, didn't he

I'm not Jewish, but I bet that Kabbalah students would have good things to say about him.

The real challenge is reconnecting with the original purity behind Christianity. I think Jesus was a being who had compassion with a capital C, perhaps unlike any other sage.

The real question is, why are we talking about Jesus being a fantasy, and not treating Buddha and Muhammed equally harshly ? I think the answer is that Christianity as a religion has done such a diabolical number on so many people, that people would love to delete it's 'founder' all together.

I'm not religious, but I have no problem with Jesus having existed as a regular dude on planet earth.

Hey, you made a post about your dreams predicting the future. I think that doing consciousness work actually opens us up more to the possibility of so called miracles etc. Top Jesus quote of all time, I'm paraphrasing - "What I have done, you shall do also, and so much more."

Oh come on, you can say that about any historical figure. You don't unintentionally start the biggest religious cult in the world without being around. There was some real pure energy behind this thing, no matter how distorted it has become.

Why are you not questioning the validity of Paul, he's also in the bible, and you never saw him with your own eyes either. We cant just use the imagination argument to delete historical figures. You need to actually have some proof when you say that the guy who inspired the biggest religion never walked the earth.

No, i dont mean the spiritual stuff. People are claiming he never existed as a historical figure.
