Don't worry, blasphemy is just a way to control workers or peasants.

Fuck jesus! Jesus is an asshole! God is evil!

See, nothing happened...

I have no issues with that, that's a legit opinion. Also 100% agree on blasphemy being a tool of social control, there's no shortage of historical examples to prove it.

My issue is with misrepresenting something to try to prove a point, like the guy I replied to was trying to do.

Fair enough!

Still, don't forget it's just an old book, interpreted by people over the ages too...

Indeed it is, but it's a fascinating book regardless. Unfortunately it has been used to justify horrendous things almost from the moment it was written, and as shown above, continues to be used to try to just anything up to this day.

There are way more interesting books out there ...

Use of undeclared identifier 'jesus'.
Unused variable 'Jesus'.
Undefined type 'evil'.

That didn't compile.

Also, "Jesus" and "jesus" are different.
