In the sermon of the mount Yeshua supposedly implied that one should not
be judgmental.
“Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what judgment you judge,
you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured
back to you.
~ Matthew 7:1
In Raja Petra's sermon, the bullshit known as the abrahamic faiths, the New
Testament is just a fabrication. I quote
'The New Testament is not from Jesus. These are fabrications by those
who came long after Jesus had died'
The Gospels have long been debated. What is Raja Petra's objection? The
scribes and writings that were penned years after his alleged death and
alleged resurrection. You see, the first four gospels (matthew, mark, luke and john),
were written between 65~95AD timeline. The Bible (Codex Vaticanus)
canonization occurred between 325-350AD
I asked Pete (Raja Petra) once, what would be an except-able benchmark.
Pete has never given me an answer. Why ? His approach to his objection,
is really, a philosophical one. Not one, based on pure empiricism. If
time-lines distort manuscripts. One could have applied probability analysis
on these scribers. What is the probability that these documents were
fabricated i.e. followers of the disciples, were lying about a man named
Yeshua Ben Yosef. So given the thousands manuscripts, of copies, and
textual criticism applied. What is the probability based sampling, on
contradictory accounts that would invalidate these accounts. I am talking
about historicity in corroboration with greek, roman and jewish accounts.
On the eve of the Passover Yeshu (Jesus) was hanged. For forty days
before the execution took place, a herald went forth and cried, "He is
going forth to be stoned because he practiced sorcery and enticed Israel
to apostasy. Anyone who can say anything in his favor, let him come
forward and plead on his behalf. " But since nothing was brought
forward in his favor he was hanged on the eve of the Passover! -- Ulla
retorted, "Do you suppose that he one for whom a defense could be made?
Was he not a mesith [enticer], concerning whom Scripture says, Neither
shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him? With Yeshu, however, it
was different, for he was connected with royalty [or well-connected]."
~ Sanhedrin 43a Talmud (200-500ce)
I can't prove the Supernatural, but certainly one could apply the test of
historicity. What Pete's benchmark is, i guess. A Messiah who had access to
private scribers, with hundreds of millions of denari, papyrus or leather
parchments, and payment to scribe his personal biography. Furthermore the
Guttenberg Press, to ensure that there were no transmission errors present in
copies proceeding with the original notarized copy, by the religious authorities,
lawyers, and whatnot. One who would conform with his ideal zeitgeist
Was Yeshua really non-judgemental ?
6 “Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine,
lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.
~ Matthew 7:6
He seemed to imply that one should not put what is valuable in front of those
who will reject the notion that it has value (the Gospel) and furthermore that
they will seek to diminish or destroy what one offers
be judgmental.

you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured
