<<the prize of eternal life>>

I am Christian and have little interest in eternal life. I agree that when
groups focus on their "eternal reward", love of God seems more like "what's
in it for me?".

I personally, think the Bible is full of fallacies, because men wrote it,
introducing human error. Yes, I know that is blasphemous to some. But I do
believe that when you hear truth, you recognize it. I hear truth when I
read the words of Jesus. But Jesus never seemed real thrilled with his
disciples' grasp of what he was trying to teach them. What was the verse
"How long will I have to put up with you?", something like that.

I feel pretty sure that Jesus' teachings were tremendously distorted very
soon after his death.
