That's what they've been preaching for some number of years, but there's evidence that Jesus (although I'm not a worshipper or follower of him) made at least one statement in a dead sea scroll about rejecting church to the benefit of anyone who every had an atheistic or agnostic bone in their body.Quote:

That scroll is supposedly held by the Israelis and they refuse to relinquish it.
The subject matter and their refusal makes sense to my beliefs about life.
Jesus was considered to be a good man, outside of Christianity even, and he was a known shit stirrer with Rome.
To me, he was a decent sort who strived to do the right thing... despite being later painted as an abstinate son of an initially abstinate mother who didn't father a "saviour" who didn't father a later generation of children who migrated through France north.
I believe the words in the scroll were roughly translated as, "I have overcome the Cosmos (church), don't let the cosmos overcome you"
He was a sort of Bin Laden meets Ghandi really.
