Christian Mistranslations of Hebrew Texts

[Melchizedek = Michael]

Paul was a Jew. Why is his interpretation less valid than a modern Jew's?

"Modern Jew" would be a person who doesn't accept the Christian - Islam translations of killing Jesus the Christ to be a Jew since it's an Islam medical pseudoscience fabricated virgin Mary misnomer immaculate son of Allah conception reason to be considered Jewish.

I read Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer novels instead of the scriptures when I was a young kid.

They were totally useless as literature, true enough, but at least I didn't embrace any weird fucking ideas for having read the shit.

I read the Tolkien trilogy for one



I loved the morality in it


But I NEVER thought the characters were real living beings


There is more good morality thoughts in the Bible


Jesus was awesome

He may have actually lived


I dont need to have to worship people who had some good ideas



It’s better to just absorb the good ideas and make them part of your life


Tolkien was one bad ass dude though
