All religions were created by men. Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Mormonism, ...etc. these are just a fraction of religions that were created by men. They all have flaws and bizarre stories because the men who created them were all flawed human beings. Instead of admitting their flaws, they chose to give the credit to imaginary unseen beings.

Christianity, has its own inner darkness, which is built into its structure. For while it may seem wonderful to have a religion, which claims to see total self sacrifice and total devotion to the well being of others as the greatest aim. It is however true that if nobody looked to their own self interest first, then the world would be quickly in a sorry mess. But more importantly, the darkness of Christianity is that by setting up impossible objectives, it quite deliberately sets up people to fail, and fail they must.

So that Christianity is in the business of promoting guilt, and all the pain and suffering that causes. And then it sells forgiveness, over which it claims to have a quite false monopoly. Along with the idea that those who do not accept its trade are failed humans too.

I became a Christian as my parents became fully involved in religion. Studied for the ministry and then backed away from it. I always felt at fault and a miserable failure until somewhere around 2010 or 2012 when I re-examined the faith and saw the many flaws in the bible and all holy books. Isaiah and Daniel knew nothing of Jesus because of the mismatch time system. Revelation barely made it into the bible and it is not a futuristic book. The bible as we know it today is a book by decree and designed to have a beginning and an end. It is one of the many holy books written by men. Just another work of fiction.
