Yes, and Jesus' laws were useful aswel, and then rationality came along and cut out the middle management

Well... doesn't sound all to terrible, save for a few. I'm already self loving, money loving, proud, disobedient to my parents, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, rash, lover of pleasure and I'm doing just fine being all that.

Oh I'm fine with that, just don't expect me to follow up on your rulebook. It's yours, not mine

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them" - 2 Timothy 3:1-5

Your attitude is a fulfillment of Bible prophecy. You strengthen my faith with every comment.

Who said it was irrelevant? The Law was useful for a time, but it was only a stop-gap while they waited for the Christ, who did away with it.
Of course there are still prophecies to be fulfilled, such as the one Jesus made in Matthew 24:3-44, but that has nothing to do with the Law.

"HAVE TO BE FULFILLED" meaning it hasn't happened yet! and the Law of Moses refers to the first five books of the old testament, INCLUDING that mount sinai scene on which god gives moses his laws.
Really, if you believe half of your bible is irrelevant, why don't you go ahead and burn that bit? I dare you.

God can kiss my ass, I own me.

Jesus is saying that he has fulfilled prophecy from the OT.
What's that got to do with Christians following or being under the Law of Moses? You just don't get it do you.

If christians only have to accept god as their lord, and implement the ethic of reciprocity, does that mean that if you want to die, you are allowed to kill someone? because that is what you are logically stating right here.
