I only just realized I never responded to this. My sincerest apologies.

Quote by: morality games No. Common origin does not implicate that two entities should be given the same treatment. Matter and energy enjoy the same origin, but due to differences in their nature, they are given different assessments. Jesus specificaly refuted the strictness of rules, not the authenticity of the history or science, meaning he felt as though the history and science suggested there needed to be less strictness, not that it was false. |
Though he never backed up that the history read exactly as it was in the Bible.
He never said that, so this is a bit of assumption. In the mean time, let me bible quote again.
"Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered"
Luke 11:52
A translation (i don't put words in mouth, just clean up the old english): You idiot, lawyers! You have the key to knowledge. You're smart. I know, because God gave you that key. And yet you don't use your head! You don't use the key. You just stick to stopping others from using the key (brains).
This is like the ninth amendment in the Constitution. Jesus gave us a bit of power to make those decisions on our own. I mean He gave us a brain, why shouldn't we follow it?
