Quote - "It's comforting to think that if we see injustices happening, well at least the good will be sent to heaven and the bad will be sent to hell. It's actually the philosophy that the church used in the middle ages to keep the toiling peasants content with their hard lives, LOL. Because there's a reward waiting. Or there's the idea of karma, that if you do evil you may not be punished in this life, but you will be in the next."
Correction. The bible goes back over 2000 years to the time of Christ, this is not a "middle age" hope of the peasants to make their lives more meaningful, it is the hope of all Christians that believe on Christ and His words which have lasted throughout the ages. If you scrub biblical history, you will also have to scrub greek and egyptian history along with it. because the biblical history has much stronger standing and evidence among scholars than the other two histories. Go check with any open minded expert in world history.
