We have very old manuscripts of both the Old and New Testaments, and the monastic copies accord with these well.
I get "all" my truth from both the Bible and from a study of nature (the wotld). God is the Author of both, after all.
Christ gave His Church the authority to finally and definitively establish the Canon of Scripture (and to anathematize heresy, provide the sacraments, etc). Books like Enoch or the Gospel of Thomas were justifiably excluded, not because they were entirely false, but because, while mostly true, they contained certain errors or erroneous interpretations of true events. For example, the Book of Enoch made it seem like all evil was a result of angelic sin. This is not true; the sin of Adam is something independent of (although facilitated by) angelic sin.
I know it's a low blow, but hatred of Christ is about the Jewiest thing there is, so you're bumpin' elbows with them, bud.
And if you don't repent you'll be spending eternity with the Jews at your side. Oy vey.
I don't hate christ i hate that his words have been used tonweaken white europeans...
Christ teachings over all seem pretty good I'm agnocbristo aka agnostic with a morale base based on Christian teachings.
We are on the same side
