>Once we were gods, but what are we now? Willfully ignorant savages and self-deluded fools, little more than helpless children scattered and lost in the cold dark. But I tell you, we have been gods and we shall be gods again.
We are still like when God created us, even if your mind tell you you're something else now.Master your mind.Don't be its slave.
Tower of Babylon directly refutes judeo-christianity btw. People wanted to see if they could meet God if they built high enough, as they thought God lived in the sky like every judeo-christian, but G-d got so butt hurt that he'd have to talk to people he tore it all down and forced people to talk in different languages.
>>18426434The Tower of Babel wasn't meant to be taken literally. The Ancient Hebrew word for "confusion" is Balel, which is similar to their word for Babylon, Babel. It was originally just a play on words referring to a real-life location, the Etemenanki Ziggurat, which we still know the location of to this day. The reason for the story was because the Ziggurat was never finished and became somewhat of an eyesore. Ancient Jews were basically just shitposting. "Hey Babylon, if your gods are so much better than ours, then how come you never finished your temple to them??? Babylon? More like Confused idiots lmao!"
>>18427009Actually the Etemenanki was finished. The fuck you on about
>>18427009The story is about the confusion that comes about from homonyms and polysemy, and the evolution of speech. The tower fell because they used the wrong kind of building material. They forgot the meaning of the word "stone and mortar", and substituted them for bricks and tar. They interpreted the meaning of the word heaven to mean "sky", instead of the non-corporeal realm of God. Atheists do the same thing when they straw man about a "sky daddy". They are not able to build a foundation of understanding, because they are using the wrong semantics to build their arguments.
