Princeton Pupil Faked Beating, Death Threats

Come on folks, religious organizations and individuals within these groups have been lying since the middle of the second century to protect their interpretation of religion and their scandalous abuses of power.

Since the first lies written about Mary in the second century to discredit women in religion, to the 4^th century removal of several books from Christian teaching as "Blasphemous", I have to ask why some young fool selected as the up and coming leader of this conservative group lying surprises any one.

The commandment prohibiting false witness has represented the least observed commandment within any church yet. Followed quickly by thou shalt not kill. The least respected teaching has to be the golden rule.
