You changed the subject to murder, to satisfy Godwin's law, by using Hitler as an example. Why did you feel this was necessary?
I feel like saying something derogatory, but I will refrain.
I'll instead give you another scenario, to try to get you to understand the point. Al Capone sent his cohorts out to steal for him, does that make him, any less a thief than they. That was the point.
Your original claim was that Jeus had not been in town to see the colt or talk to the owners.
This is what the scriptures says it's no claim of mine, it's how it reads.
Yet Jesus knew there was a certain colt that had never been ridden before and the disciples could find it in a certain place. Jesus did not ask for just any horse. There was only one that would do. So you tell me how he knew about it.
I don't know, but I not going to assume, anything else, that would be foolish, the facts remain the owners according to the scripture were asking why the colt was being stolen. how jesus got the information is not for you or me to assume, we can only go by what is written, we should not extrapolate, and add to it.
Charles Dickens wrote David Copperfield in such a way that it had a happy ending, he could have wrote it with a sad ending but he didn't. we can only read it, the way it is written.
The book of proverbs is a look through the human character eyepiece, the same way Confucious does it. Are you telling me that nothing Confucious ever said regarding human nature has any value? Are you telling me likewise about proverbs?
all books have some moral value, but that is no reason to base your life on them.
Hamlet by Shakespeare is a book of fiction, hence it would be irrational and unintelligent to go to a Shakespeare play this line of reasoning just sounds kind of kookie.
No why! it's called entertainment, that's what fiction is written for.

Sadly you are a victim of the mind virus, and as such have no control, of what you might do, you have the potential to be a killer because of your illness, it's not your fault, you just need to be cured before you, do any harm, your literally a walking time bomb. And yes we all have a similar potential, but yours is made a thousand times worse because of the mind virus.
I think anybody is capable of murder
I've bolded and blue what you seem to have a problem reading.

I've tried to explain on several occasions that I hold religion up as evil not it adherents, you are just a victim. Hence why I am a humanist, people come first, I don't follow fantasies.
and they will rationalize it -- take abortion for example. and like Jesus said,
if you think ill toward someone you are already a murderer.
Again bolded and blued.
I haven't aborted anyone, and I don't approve of it. Do you?
No.
I think you do follow a fantasy. You think your view comes from a position of more knowledge and it doesn't. You have no more knowledge than anyone else.
Never once said I had, now did I. My point of view merely comes from having a clear and critical mind. I don't take things on board, without solid evidence. There lies the difference.
If something works to make somebody a lot healthier, happier, and live longer, do you consider it irrational?
If that very thing that makes them healthier, happier, and live longer, causes them to abuse, kill, etc then yes I do.
I think that would be irrational.
I don't.
If so, then why do you keep bringing up that "Jesus did not exist" when nobody is debating that point? For some reason you keep doing this.
Strawman: I don't, you however have for the last few posts, All I've stated is that the bible is a book of fiction.
