I don't think you guys are talking about this anymore, but as someone who identifies as Christian, why should I have to pay attention to old Jewish laws or history? Because a King or a Pope hundreds of years ago said I should?
It's not so much overlooking as it is refusing to accept something as part of my belief system which shouldn't be.
I think the typical response would be "Because god wrote it" ? :P

Because Jesus did not come to abolish the law. He was a Jew. Christianity is a Jewish spinoff sect.
Is that in all four of the gospels out of curiosity?
LOL This teabagging stuff is so funny to me. Trying to make this like the Boston Tea Party? REALLY?? Oh man, too much.
It's stupid poor to middle white people sticking up for their rich white brethrens. I really have no sympathy for rich people when it comes to taxes. You still have money, just suck it down you asshole.

Yeah, fuck you for getting a better education and better job and making more money.
I don't think the titans were worshipped, but in that theology, they were gods before the new gods came and deposed them (Zeus you dick). And actually weren't the greek gods sons/daughters of the titans?
They're generally considered a different class of being. Similarly, nobody confuses the giants and elfs and dwarfs of Norse mythology with Thor and his ilk, despite Loki being a half-breed.
Which raises the weird question of how you go from titan dna --> god dna

Yeah its so bullshit. That poor white people are so afraid of Democrats, because they are the only party actually working for their interests.

I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

I still can't believe I live in a world where Batman isn't Bruce Wayne anymore. Not even Batman Beyond or Batman: Some other subtitle to show that it's not really batman.

Because Jesus did not come to abolish the law. He was a Jew. Christianity is a Jewish spinoff sect, like Mormonism is to Christianity.
Historically, yes, Jesus was Jewish, and Christianity was considered a sect of Judaism.
But Jesus' message was not just for the Jews, but for everyone (referred to as gentiles, meaning non-Jewish peoples). The whole second half of the New Testament is about that, including argument about whether or not it was necessary for gentiles to convert to Judaism first. Also, while Jesus referred to Jewish scripture often (because he was Jewish), he contradicted those laws just as often.

I hate this world.
WAIT.
WHAT THE FUCK?
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES.
What have they done to my fucking batman?
Just decided that Bruce Wayne's daddy wasn't really dead, was really some horrible arch villain, then had daddy "kill" bruce.
I don't know, it's all a blur from there, I started vomiting.

All that means is that "Oh hey lol everyone's a Jew now."
As for contradictions... fuck man, it's religion. Contradiction is what it DOES.

Man, I'm glad I don't read or take super hero comics seriously.
It just sounds like a recipe for disappointment.
I thought Batman Beyond was that Bruce was an old man now and some kid took over being Batman while Bruce just hung out in the batcave as the new Alfred.
No, you get an axe, because it's difficult to keep a spear balanced when you're fighting from the side of your longboat and also because a spear can't be used to build planks to repair said longboat the following morning.
What are you, some kind of Greek? Get out of here. Go fight some people on land.

You'd have to ask Qingu. I focus on more interesting mythos.

We should bring back the old Norse religion for sure.

hopefully preparing a long payoff smite.
Like cancer.

My best friend's primary deity is Odin and her best friend who I made out with at her wedding was the lorekeeper for her Nordic faith group.

Wait a year. If that.

Honest.

Zeus killed him and took over.
Gaia was a quasi-titan wasn't she? she continued to be worshiped with the Olympian Gods

Just play enough Age of Mythology and it'll all make sense.
God, what an awesome game.

She was the mother of Titants and Monsters and such.
Deity status isn't entirely about descent.
