]]> 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
