Christian Objections and the Age of Apocalypse

A caller disputes the Raelian claim that all religions have the same origin, arguing that Christianity is unique because it relies on the blood sacrifice of Jesus rather than good works. Parent responds by questioning the accuracy of the New Testament, noting it was written centuries after Jesus' death based on potentially distorted oral traditions. She maintains that the current era is the "Age of Apocalypse" or revelation, where the Elohim and all past prophets will eventually return.

Telephone Game of Biblical Tradition, Age of Apocalypse

Parent argues that the New Testament was written hundreds of years after Jesus' death, leading to significant distortions through oral tradition, similar to a game of "telephone." She claims the core message of all prophets was love, intended to help humanity survive until the current Age of Revelation. She suggests that this generation will witness the return of the Elohim and their prophets.

Church Dogma History, Apostles and Written Records

Parent discusses the history of the Catholic Church, noting that doctrines like the Trinity were established through votes long after Jesus' time. She asserts that none of the original apostles wrote the gospels themselves, as the texts are attributed "according to" them based on oral tradition. The discussion touches on the controversy surrounding John of Patmos and the writing of Revelation.
