@sree251 the old testament is JVHJ the punisher deity, with genocide and repression.
Jeshua ben Joseph, taught forgiveness and acceptance

I don't know what the Old Testament teaches but I agree with you that Jesus taught a fundamentally different way to live.

The Jesus character said that people should engage in self-mutilation to avoid sinning. I wonder why only one or two people follow that teaching?
