    Was flabbergasted when I found out that there was a straight up murderous hate between different sets of Christianity. You can tell the book is the perfect word of a divine being, since it spawned so many different mutually exclusive interpretations

      The vast majority of denominational split is over Church structure. The Bible isn’t really clear on how to run a Church or the very specifics (classic one: when Jesus said “this is my body”, how do we interpret that?) yet it’s quite clear over the important issues- that Jesus, who is God, died for the remission of sins.
