You know who you are whom that applies to. I was one of you once. Never again. The thing about Jesus is if you read Him for YOURSELF and you try to follow HIS declarations not Paul's- in fact, do yourself a favor and either ignore Paul completely or remind yourself his teachings are an OPINION not LAW. Jesus proves Himself through His actions and no I don't mean the parlor tricks and magick I mean the things He more or less commanded. The loving your enemies, treating others the way you want to be treated, never succumbing to anger and outrage, rather reminding yourself the He believes in you too and though we fail every day, even just trying to be more like Him is better than being a shithead.
Your comments about paul reveal a lot. You are more of a humanist than a Christian. "God loved Jacob and hated Essau." God does not love everybody the way you think he does. I love my enemies. But I hate the enemies of God. There is a difference.
