Im reading all of this and find some very informative pieces. One in particular which I would like more info on is that of the Fig tree. That thing makes all knowing Bro' Jesu seem quite a dummy.

A few things to consider here.

Firstly, Jesus is supposedly God and also hungry. Christians don't believe in a hungry God but the preachers make the exception for Jesus because they say he is different. Christian preachers demean Hindus for their beliefs and worships but when you point out that the story of Jesus and his life on earth is similar, they say Jesus is different.

Secondly, he say a fig tree in the distance and was happy to see it since he was hungry. But when he got to the tree, he was disappointed because there were no fruits on the tree. Why was there no fruits on the tree? Because it was not the season for fruits to be on that tree. One would expect that God would know it is fig season or not. A little kid in Guyana can tell you if it is mango season or not in Guyana.

Thirdly, this is the part that gets the least bit of attention. We learn everyday of the importance of positive attitude. How does Jesus respond to his own silly assumption that there would be figs on the tree? He got pissed off and cursed the tree. Imagine that of all the possible responses that Gentle Jesus could have had, he chose getting pissed off and cursing a tree which has done nothing wrong since it is nature that determines the seasons not the trees. My man Keith would like you to accept Jesus poor response to his silly assumption as righteous indignation. Why? Because Jesus is different.
