Extraneous, and comically ironic. First, it was the ruling classes that used Platonic metaphysics to supplant the "philosophical lexicon" of misused language into the "theological" paradigm. Paul, the inventor of Christianity, was a frustrated nit-wit who couldn't conform to Judaism, so he made up another religion and used a wandering hippy, Jesus, as his center-piece. So we have Plato, who starts the metaphysical nonsense which remains dominant throughout neo-platonic schools of thought, then we have two schools, Judaism and Christianity, which battle over metaphysical supremacy for the indoctrination of the working classes.

........finally, thousands of years later, Christianity has the nerve to claim to be the liberating feature of the working classes?

:laugh:

Absolutely out of the question. It was the religious crap that set this ball rolling to begin with....so it sure as hell cannot be a solution.

Rhymes with fraud.

No theology can be good, it starts out on a false premise.

I suppose the heart is in the right place, so to speak.
