the old testament is a history. it's based on older stories and genealogies that were later tailored to a group of people.
the teachings of jesus are basically true because they are repackaged Egyptian and eastern philosophy.
paul is a worldly dude who tried to work within/create a worldly system of control, which generally isn't compatible with the teachings of jesus.
like the Ethiopians, i also think many apocryphal texts are valid. -

Have you read the Bible
Having been raised a Catholic, I have read parts of it.
What did you make of it?
I took comfort…
It was like most storybooks.
Would I like to believe?
As I get closer to the end of my life???
Sure! Why not?

I have no expectations.
I do know a couple of things though.
If there is a Heaven there is sure to be a Hell. I'd rather not go there.

No Sunday school.
I went to a catholic grade school. We started the day with Mass. I was taught by nuns.
My family and I went to Mass on Sundays. See
