Looks like all your thoughts were passed down from Jesus himself-
I recall all the readings about His teachings, inspiring sermons like: "All you heathens are dumbasses". "Believe in me, you idiot!"
In fact, word is that Jesus called Judas an idiot and that's why Judas betrayed him, he was pissed off at Jesus.
That was a rebuttal???? Weak. Expected better.
Ok then..."everything you are was passed down"-- yeah, we're conditioned. We're all conditioned to believe that we have some eternal soul inside us that keeps on going after this body dies. Enabling everyone to cherry pick the parts of whatever religion they subscribe to that suit their desires and needs. Always, of course, picking the part where they live forever. That's a foregone conclusion after all.
