You need to get out more, Mick lol. Seriously...I like those red-letter Bibles, where the words that Jesus spoke are in red. If you just go through and read what he actually said, it bears no resemblance to man-made churches and their rules. He was a radical, anti-establishment, free-thinker, who threatened the religious and political powers of the day.
"Love God and your neighbor, this is the whole law." It doesn't get any simpler than that.

Lyricb

Yeah, he was radical and that's awesome, but he still said the things he said and did the things he did.

What is it with you people? Why are you so hung up on what Organised Religion says?.. ;)
As a Free Christian I belong to no Org Rel at all for the simple reason I don't need them to do my thinking for me, and they can all go up the spout together for all I care.. ;)
Remember, Org Rel killed Jesus..
Remember too - Jesus said:-"You have one teacher, me" (Matt 23:10)

Would organized religion have anything to do with a 2000 year old fortress or are you the only one inside this conceptualized thingy? I find this particularly odd since organized religion is responsible for the canonization and teachings that have built this "2000 year old fortress"




Or, as a "Free Christian" is your fortress really only ((insert your age here)) years old? And therefore, in your terminology, a blank cartridge.

This would be the actual quote I was referring to about the fortress:
