Yeah Buddhism and Jainism is much more peacefull. And I have heard poetry and philosophies much better than that of Jesus.

You are all going to see in a short while what Christianity is like without Christians, because we will not be here when you need us the most.
Jesus is Love and His example of dying for EVERYONE's sins is the perfect image of Christianity. However, removing Christians to make Christianity fit your lifestyle instead of removing any aspect of you lifestyle that does not fit Christianity is not truth, but self deception. A life that is only partially given to Jesus is not given at all.
The wording of your many questions and selective adherence to God's Word leads me to believe that you are looking for affirmation or someone to "scratch your itch." You obviously have issues that need to be dealt with.

There is nothing especially christian about the good things in christianity.
Even christ had to admit that in the parable of the Good Samaritan.
The whole point of the story is that the Samaritan was not a christian.

Christians,
Letting aside the god thing, don't you think that without atheists, atheist philosophy may be quite beautiful?
I mean focussing on the message that we have to be responsible for ourselves, and make our own destiny. That we hold the future in our hands and that we must be responsible for our legacy and the gift we give our children?
Don't you think that the idea that "god can fix anything" leads people to abuse what they have? Children aren't afraid of breaking their toys ... their parents will fix or replace them. That same attitude seems to carry over, and people aren't as careful of what they have.
Perhaps atheism places a greater value on what is, as atheists don't have a magic band-aid dispenser in the sky to fix all their boo-boos.

There's no argument about the 'good words' of the bible. I mean thou shalt not kill is something we can all live by not to mention some of the other words of wisdom. But resorting to unseen deities and supernatural explanations to describe the world is not rational.

Jesus seems mostly OK. But there is nothing beautiful about that horrible faerie tale in the Old Testament. I am glad that I know that tyrant isn't real.

Jesus of the bible stories never uttered a word what wasn't said before and more eloquently. The bible is full of plagiarism. So no, I don't think the philosophy of Jesus is anything special.

All of the religions have a universal message of being kind to others, the golden rule, blah blah blah. Who cares about all the other crap? All those rules and regulations are for suckers.

It's nothing special. No more than you hear everyday anyway. Just like the Dali Lama - if he weren't some wizended old foreign guy, no one would be paying any attention at all.
