How do Jews, Christians, and Muslims cope with the fact that neither Exodus nor Joshua’s conquest of Canaan ever happened and instead the Israelites were originally a Canaanite peoples who only later became a distinct group? The entire Old Testament is ahistorical and at best contains half-truths (akin to how Gilgamesh and King Arthur might be based on real people whose deeds were exaggerated). Jewish monotheism evolved out of Canaanite paganism and not the other way around, there was never any “original monotheism” and the apostasy depicted in 2 Kings was in reality the original state of things, not some later perversion as monotheism didn’t exist at all until after the Babylonian exile (and as a coping mechanism to getting BTFO by Babylon).

He does not fight back. Only his followers do. You can blaspheme him in private and nothing happens unless his believers hear it. They are real. He is not. Lol.

There are three Gods. Jewish. Christian God. And Muslim God. They are all individual people and not one person lol.

Your life doesn't suck for no reason. All bad things in life are reserved for those who hate him.

They actually believe in Ishtar, that's why if you ever speak ill of their alleged goddess you actually get fucked over in life more.

>>18488836
Sounds like you're spitballing and don't actually know what you're talking about. Don't worry, nobody understands the bible correctly their first time reading it.
