If what Jesus did or did not say is different depending on what religion you subscribe to, you’d think we could then make the logical conclusion that some portion of what we ascribe to Jesus was not actually what he said, and vice versa…

Critical analysis of their own dogma isn’t something the religious do. Their scripture is literally god’s word, everyone who believes otherwise is either a heretic or an outright pagan, that’s all the insight required in their worldview.

One of the reason I love Deconstruction Zone. The host has degrees in biblical studies, reads biblical Hebrew and Greek, and was a pastor for 20 years. When Christians complain about “but the context” he drags them through the context face first.
Fun fact: the “love your neighbor” bit literally only refers to those actually close to you. I don’t remember the exact word but it’s generally accepted to refer to only Hebrews. Also a few verses later God tells you exactly who you’re allowed to enslave (anyone from foreign nations).
