Questions: Religion & Spirituality

Apparently the mundane day to day laws of the Torah have a 60% overlap with Ancient Athenian law. Calling into question both the antiquity and divinity of the laws. And when the Torah says the Jews took the promised land, Egypt was there, not Philistines. A new theory by a peer reviewed scholar Russell Gmirkin puts the creation of the laws of Moses in the Hellenistic era, after 320 BC when Alexander conquered Persia. He says they read Plato's dialogue where he says the ideal city would backdate their laws and give them a divine origin. Unfortunately there is no way to show the Torah is nearly as ancient as it claims since it was transmitted orally for centuries, or so they say.

If you look around many religious ministry are saying we are in the End Times. I myself do not bit my Soul and I do believe in The Rapture. Please vote yes or no on this belief and please make a comment why yes or no vote.

1. Acts 5

Peter gives poison to Ananias: Peter then asks him if he donated all of the money from the sale of his land. Peter had Spies and knew that he didn't. Ananias told him, yes. So peter did not give him the antidote. Before he died, he told him cryptically, "The feet of the people who will bury your husband are by the door." And "young men" came to wrap up Ananias and bury him. 3 hours later Peter calls in Ananias wife. She is unaware of what has happened. He asks her about the money. And she "lies" too. Peter repeats the same phrase to her and she dies. (The Greek word used specifically says her heart stopped. He gave her a poison that caused cardiac arrest). Peter claims "the spirit" did this shit.

2. Mark 14

Jesus is at the park at night with his disciples. Judas comes with the police armed with swords and clubs. Jesus is wearing some kind of cloak or disguise that causes him to blend in with everyone else. So Judas has to greet Jesus to point him out to the police. At that point the police come forth to arrest him. Jesus says "why do you come out against me like I am a human trafficker?" Mark says a young boy covered in a towel runs away naked at that point. They arrest Jesus. Is it possible Jesus and the gang were going to sacrifice the boy? In an attempt to fulfill the prophecy of the binding of the child / Isaac, before the lamb takes its place? But Judas couldn't believe what he was hearing so he reported them, and for reporting him for committing a crime, he got a reward?

Just can't think of any other reason for a religious book to demand the r*pe of children, slavery and blind obedience.
