Is there a complete compilation of everything that's quoted from Jesus? I'm looking for a pdf version to scrub the text and use it for a project. I'm hoping to include everything like the gnostic texts, kjv, etc.

Is it possible to distinguish between genuine faith and delusion?

I know there have been many similar threads in the past, but I did not find satisfying answers in them so I thought I might as well post about it myself.

I’m a materialist agnostic and whenever I try to explore religion and spirituality, either through reading or practice (e.g. meditation), I just feel like I’m fooling myself into being delusional.

Kierkegaard’s writings on faith left me embittered as he states that faith goes beyond reason (which just seems like an excuse), while other philosophers, such as Nietzsche, seem to me like mere apologists of atheism.

I’m interested in many religions ranging from Christianity to Buddhism yet, although I do agree with some of their statements, I really can’t wholly immerse myself in their beliefs as they mostly seem irrational, made up myths and stories (like Adam and Eve or the Buddhist Cosmology).
