>Why yes I genocided the Egyptians and Canaanites>Why yes I ordered a bear to maul 3 children for mocking Elijahs baldness>Why yes I inspired David to write poetry about dashing babies heads on stones>newtestament.exe running...>ACTUALLY GUYS IM ALL FOR PEACE AND LOVEDo you retards really think that YHWH and Jesus are the same god?
>>18427774Well,>ACTUALLY GUYS IM ALL FOR PEACE AND LOVE...>...and so if you don't follow my new rules for being peaceful and loving then I'll torture you forever and ever with fire and brimstone after you dieis a little more in character, at least if you take a weighted average greatly favoring the "peace and love" side.
>>18427799>>18427774I m indian btwLet's compare how our Lord Vishnu treats his servants instead of desert gods.Vishnu punishes those who disturb the cosmic order, such as Hiranyakashipu and Ravana, to restore dharma and protect the righteous, assuming forms like Narasimha and Rama :)
>>18427774and whats funny is that Christians claim God is all knowing and all perfect so yes he can 100% be the God of love and peace and 100% the God who commanded the genocide of the Cannaanites
>>18427774Gnostics were unironically right. They’re also the only Christian sect who have a legitimate claim to not being Jewish.
>>18427819Gnostics are a bunch of retarded contrarians that fall in the same holes as christianity, judaism, and islam>See, Yahweh is bad! We worship the Supreme God, who's actually omnieverything!>Then why doesn't them dethrone the Demiurge and save us?>...Gnostics btfod as easy as thar
>>18427814Pathetic.
>>18427774Actual NT:>I came not to bring peace, but a sword!
>>18427830I dislike them cuz they recognize that YHWH was evil but still use Jewish myth as a basis
>>18427830No Gnostic has ever claimed the Monad/Pleroma is "Omnieverything" in the sense of being a cartoonish marvel-tier deity Yahweh portrays HIMSELF as in the bible. Christians dont need to speculate on Yahweh's nature because according to biblical doctrine, he himself is directly calling himself the ultimate being who pure mercy and knowledge as he threatens to cast to hell for not debasing yourself before him and ordering babies heads dashed against rocks (certainly sounds like something the supreme entity of being and existence would do). The Monad cant "Dethrone" the demiurge because "it" is an abstraction beyond any comprehensible level of interaction or engagement with our reality. The difference is that it and Gnostics wont threaten and gaslight non-Gnostics into worship with threats of eternal hellfire and torture

>>18427814Hi OP
>>18427843They are rightfully treated as a christian fanfiction>>18427845>Muh abstract gigagod that absolutely exist but does nothingFucking please
>>18427863>Muh abstract gigagod that absolutely exist but does nothingThat's supposed to be Epicurus' intended solution to his Epicurean paradox thoughbeit.
>>18427882He can be forgiven on that, especially after eternally annihiliating monotheism
>>18427774Nah Jesus is about the prophets. There was never any prophets REEEEEEEEEEE moment ever this is just some 2010s shit, pathetic
>>18427882>>18427893Epicureanism is a philosophy for eunuchs and cowards.
>>18427960Maybe, but he refuted the idea of a supreme god using logic. That makes him a legend
