Discussion about Christianity by Christians and those who are curious.
Rule #1. Anti-Christian and anti-Bible statements will not be tolerated. Constructive criticism of Christianity is OK, however.
Rule #1.1. The measure for what is considered Christian, as has been the case in the faith since the earliest days, will be the faith proclaimed in the Nicene Creed.

No worse than the rest of Christianity.
huh? Are you trying to claim that Christian scriptures are the same? Jesus didn't claim to have prophecies conveniently forgotten, expired unfulfilled prophecies, a mistranslated manuscript or golden plates that conveniently disappeared.
Not the same, but just as bad in other ways. Also, pretty easy to have fulfilled prophecies when they are written down ex post facto.
EDIT: Wait, I forgot about rapture. Pretty sure we're still waiting on that one. Doesn't really have an expiration though. So, kinda meaningless.
What do you mean by ex post facto?
We literally have surviving copies of prophecies about Jesus that predate AD 0
If the rapture happened we wouldn't already be here having this discussion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
