This is fact.

It's the truth.

In the other thread, I pointed out Old Testament facts, and you ignored it, going straight to the New Testament.

People do that with everything shaping the universe as they like. Even if it is a lie!

I tend to agree, though there are some cases where people are making their best judgment and it happens to be wrong, and other cases where they are willfully denying evidence they just don't want to hear.

Maybe the lesson is to remain humble in the face of the great many things we still don't know about the universe.

That may be true, at that time, but the Old Testament is neatly tucked away in favor of Jesus and the New Testament. Most of the Old Testament is ignored, and it only gets referenced to highlight something positive in the New Testament. Slavery and multiple wives, for example, don't get mentioned.

Ignored by whom, where in the world are you getting your information?

I am curious. Why is it an issue for you if "most of the Old Testament is ignored"? If you gain some inspiration from the teachings of Jesus, isn't that enough?
