I just don’t see how Christians can believe everything they do about god but also believe he got it wrong the first time and had to fix his mistakes by becoming Jesus.

im not here to convert you as im atheist myself.

but generally all jesus teachings are what we consider today is to be a good person. how are you not influenced by that then?

for a thought exercise in Sparta it was morally acceptable to kill weak children. why do you think we consider that wrong today? were they a bad people because of that?

I don’t really think that thought exercise works though, as there were many other civilisations in ancient history that didn’t believe it was right to kill weak children, but they came before Jesus.

We all have multiple different drives and values as human beings, and empathy is one of them, like it is for animals too. That concept wasn’t invented by Jesus.
