]]> Over and over again, the New Testament of Christianity threatens to punish anyone who refuses to worship and obey Jesus as a god king. The punishments are varied, but include crushing to death and being burned alive in a lake of fire, as well as straightforward mass slaughter.

They call this a religion of love, but love doesn’t threaten to throw people into a fire if they don’t obey. Love doesn’t long for punishment. Love doesn’t seek to control people through fear.

Christianity is a religion of punishment and fear.

"Here's the deal: You worship me as a god king or I will throw you in the fire. It's about love."

– Jesus

]]> “As for those who do not worship Jesus, and the sexually immoral, and sorcerers, they shall be cast into the lake of fire.”
– Revelation 21:8

Why do Christians want to punish sorcerers by throwing them into a lake of fire, when its own prophet Jesus is described in the bible as practicing magic?

Why would anyone want to join a religion that seeks to burn people for having sex and independent minds?

The Christian bible is the world’s most influential source of violence, cruelty, and hatred of freedom.
