Biblical Jesus....evil???
I couldn't help but notice that many critics here, not only deny Jesus's existence, but accuse Him of being evil as well (whether he existed or not). I haven't yet heard anything specific, but i'm curious....what is evil about Jesus Christ? Sorry if I offend anyone by saying this.....if any man accuse the biblical Jesus of being evil...something is very wrong....very wrong.

I've never heard anyone explicitly say he was 'evil'.

Now you've heard it. Jesus, as commonly understood by Christians, is evil. He threatens to eternally torture in a lake of fire everyone who doesn't accept him as master. That is supremely evil.
It's the idea hell that's "very wrong." |

The only time I heard something similar was when discussing one of Jesus's parables. However, I don't find it evil.

Jesus has allegedly proven that he can perform miracles and such, so we know this guy has powers. |
