Hmmmm... so is the Old Testament then not divinely inspired? I feel like the old testament, the Torah, is what the Jews follow. If that is as divinely inspired as the New Testament, are they not doing Gods will? Much as the Christians belief that the New Testament is divinely inspired means that they are doing Gods will in following it?
On the flip side, if one is saying that the Old Testament is not divinely inspired, doesn't that make the New Testament suspect?
So is the "poser" the person who thinks they are doing God's will by following the old testament(simply because they believe that Christ was a nice fellow but not the son of God), or the person who every Sunday goes to church and behaves like a Saint for four hours, then hits the bar on the way home for a little extra sacramental wine?
