Pinku we have the same stance.. I am an atheist as I do not belive in the god of the bible... but if there is a [nathestic god out there... I won't speculate.... I do believe in dreams, pronminitions and cosmic forces.,,,

Being a SPIRITUAL ATHEIST is a good step!
by Pinku inreligions, in general, did not inspire people to be good, because the means they used was illogicality.
for example: one religion teaches: humans became sinners through one man, and would become righteous through another man.
no answer!

Being lied to for 32 years is bad. When you find out there is no daddy in the sky and no eternal life it's bad... that was abuse...LIES

Serious problems with Gospel of John, and his Revelation
by Pinku in1) john presents a jesus who is totally different from other gospels.
2) johns claim of jesus being partial to him undermines jesuss own teaching (mathew 5:44-48).
3) johns claim of first miracle (changing the water into wine) and the last (or most spectacular) miracle of resurrecting lazarus are not known to earlier gospel writers---something impossible for them to miss!.

I think Revelation is the first book of the NT written but not that last half. Only 6-11. It deals with events in the 59-73CE time of Jerusalem's destruction. Note Jesus is hardly mentioned in those chapters..
Later in the 90s it might have had the beginning added and 12-16 added. The writer John of Patmos for all we know could have been the rebelious Jewish leader John in the Jewish war but this can't be concluded for sure. Whoever it was it was horrble greek. 17-22 are almost in the late second century from the kings list.
The Gospel of John is dependant on the Gospel of Pontius Pilate and the Gospel of Nicodemus which places John in the 100-120CE area. The other gospels came after the first being the pre-Lukan version by Marcion in 140

Most of these church father's writing themselves were likely forgeries... As for John writing John this is problamic in many ways. Ireanuis writing are admitably forgeries of the late second and early third centuries and even if a guy did pen John named John what portion did he pen?
1. The seven signs from John 1-15?
2. The Prayer in 16-18 (An addition)
3. The passion in 19,20 (based on the gospel of Pontius Pilate so early second century)
4. The last chapter likely very late in early third century
5. Lastly the 7:53-8:11 narritive... added after the Vulgate 400+CE
