Never understood why so many conspiracy theorists accuse Jews of worshipping Baal when it’s literally the Jews’ own holy scripture that demonizes Baal and slanders anyone who worships him. The events of 1 and 2 kings are framed negatively and the people who worshipped the Canaanite pantheon are labeled as apostate traitors.If you think about it, the very idea that Canaanite paganism is somehow uniquely evil is a result of Abrahamic influence. Without the Bible and Quran, nobody would give a shit about who Baal is or isn’t and would just view him as another historic storm god like Zeus, Thor, or Perun.

Without the Bible and Quran, nobody would give a shit about who Baal is or isn’t and would just view him as another historic storm god like Zeus, Thor, or Perun.The idea that semitic pagans are evil has 100% definitely existed since roman times and probably before that. If abrahamic religions didn't exist white people would probably still be worshipping zeus, thor and perun and they'd probably be just as anti-semitic as the romans were.

>>18531762>conspiracy theorists accuse Jews of worshipping BaalThe jew worship of a devil is unrelated to Baal specifically, but generally in the sense that they worship a devil.
>>18531762>Never understood why so many conspiracy theorists accuse Jews of worshipping Baal>The Jews own holy scripture speaks on the multiple and repeated apostasies in favor of worshipping idols and false gods. Really makes you think.>The Golden Calf>Baal>Moloch>Asherah>Chemosh>The sun
>>18533054The Bible also demonizes those people as apostate traitors, so it’s not really indicative of present Jews who still believe that those people were apostate traitors
>>18533059You don't think the Jews in the 1 & 2 Kings and Judges knew the story of Exodus?They had already been warned multiple times about apostasy and idolatry.Didn't stop them then, won't stop them now.
>>18533065Considering the Torah was lost and only rediscovered later, yes it is logical to assume they also forgot about the golden calf incident
>>18533185Judges 2:1 — “The angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to Bokim and said, ‘I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land I swore to give to your ancestors...’” Judges 2:12 — “They forsook the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt. They followed and worshiped various gods...”Judges 6:8–9 — A prophet says: “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I brought you up out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. I rescued you from the hand of the Egyptians...” 1 Kings 12:28 — Jeroboam makes two golden calves and says: “Here are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.”2 Kings 17:7 — “All this took place because the people of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.”
>>18531762>paganism is just made up stories guys I know this because no one has shown me Zeus in a videotapeAtheists unironically believe this.Canaanite Paganism is evil because most maybe all West Asian paganism is a worship of some type of malevolent abyssal spirit.Maybe the great abyss holds evil things and those things percolate upward through sandstone or Quartz as they say the same property that causes Quartz to send and receive radio waves causes it to create thin-points betwixt the Abyss and Midgard.I don’t know what the fuck is going exactly in Western Asia but it’s very old and it’s very evil and you feel it in the bones of the world when over there.This shit doesn’t belong in my world tree and if we weren’t sacked out by two world wars a Wewelsburg shaman would seal those paths off forever.
>>18533054By the way, calfs were Yahweh's main animals until the jews ended up considering that a bit icky
