Agreed.
Jack and Mason both see the world "differently" than you or I...or most people on this thread. Any ideas on why that may be?
I think it is a fair point that biologically we evolved with some rudimentary sense of the benefits of altruism.
On the other hand, it is the height of hubris to suggest one was just naturally, independently on your own, able to come up with a comprehensive, lucid system of moral clarity in complete isolation from culture, society even from history itself.
If it is true we are just sophisticated moral beings by virtue of nothing more than DNA, I have to wonder why history needed such premminent moral thinkers like Plato, Zhu Xi, Zarathustra, Augustine, Sidartha Guatauma, etc.
Jesus taught a Slave Religion, one that would help in survival during the Roman Occupation.
Evince. Did you 'turn the cheek' when AlQaeda knocked down 2 buildings in NYC? Did you 'forgive your trespassers'?
Do you enjoy being submissive, waiting for 'The Good Life' in the Next World?

And we don’t really know everything he said
I would have loved to hear from him directly
But sadly all we have are others impressions of His words
I don’t agree with every single word attributed to him
But the bulk of the impression his words had on others was all about love and compassion
I’m betting he was one cool dude

Mason, you won't even admit God talked to you.
You never answered my last post !
Define "God" ,not everyone has the same God.
Be specific!
I told you countless times, I deal with the Holy Spirit.
Is your question is the Holy Spirit one part of God?

Obviously you don't know or believe the Holy Spirit is the same Jesus that walked the Earth then,available to all of us today!
That's how you talk to Jesus.

Jack, IMO, is most certainly bipolar. He's intelligent but his bipolarism overruns his ability to reason which is why he has THREE retard awards and will probably be the first JPP member to garner a FOURTH 12b violation.
Why? Because mentally ill people have limits on their reasoning ability. Even the smart ones like Ted Kaczynski can't get past the wall created by their own mental illness.
Bad is a relative term.
Consider this discussion I had with my 10 year old grandson on the subject of "context":
Me: A man pulls a little boy's arm so hard he breaks it. Is that bad? Should he be arrested?
Grandson: Yes.
Me. What if the man had saved by boy's life by pulling him from being flattened by a steamroller and breaking his arm was an accident?
Grandson: Uhhhh......no.
Me: Context is everything.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure they didn't tell their children when they went off to school to let everyone pick on them and even if pushed, slapped, or punch, never fight back.

That inner dialogue we all have with ourselves is what Christians see as god speaking with them
At least that is what I think
That person speaking to you is you
The “god” in all of us
For me I interpret it to be my brain functions
The human as a beautiful animal that loves and cares
The path to self love of a fully functioning human brain
A gorgeous creature

You couldn't be more wrong!
The people of Jesus time expected the Messiah to save them from the Roman Empire.
Jesus came to save mankind from sin!
And a pass from the office of the Passover Angel of Death

Is that the same Jesus you learned about from the Catholic Manual of Religious Oppression, Slavery and Subjugation of Women? The book being held here?:

I thought that too,till I had an Epiphany of the Holy Spirit, which taught and teaches me things I had no knowledge of myself.

Well, good. I'm glad that 'sin' thing is over with.
If you accept Jesus died for your sins.

Probably one of the only few genuine ones on this board.
Most posters either want to play on the bible thumper fundamentalist team, or the anti-christian zealot team.
