Document from the year 2017 in the subject Theology - Miscellaneous, , language: English, abstract: The decline of Christianity world-wide is no secret and it may be expected that churches will die, or at most become fringe phenomena. As science progresses it gets clear that the Bible cannot be regarded as God-inspired due to all its mistakes, contradictions, fiction dressed up as history and inhumane laws. It is also evident that Jesus of Nazareth was no divine person but only an ordinary human being who had delusional dreams about becoming king of the Jews, that Paul of Tarsus invented Christianity by combining elements of the Old Testament with paganism on account of a series of visions or halluciniations he said he had had, that Christian doctrines are often irrational superstitions, and that one may lead a meaningful and moral life without being religious. Some new perspectives on the life of Jesus of Nazareth are given, as well as novel arguments to prove that God never existed. It is shown that the universe is ruled by rational axioms, which may be regarded as eternal and even divine. This book contains much that will keep theologians, philosophers and scientists busy, but it is also aimed at the layperson who is interested in religion, philosphy and science.
