Reminder that Plato discussed hell (Tartarus) hundreds of years before it appeared in any Jewish text. Enjoy burning.
>>18772013There are thousands of Hells in mythology, most of which predate Judaism / Christianity. That's why Pascal's Wager is inherently retarded.
>>18772013>You should care what a gay Greek philosopher wrote because his writings are... le oldSure! Should I base my Bible on older manuscripts too? What a ridiculous non-argument. Grow up.
>>18772039Considering the amount of influence Greek philosophers like Plato had on the Bible, it should at the very least interest you if you're a Christian
>>18772042>Considering the amount of influence Mel Brooks had on William Shakespeare, his films should at the very least interest you if you're a fan of the Bard.You'll never have the brain capacity to understand it, but that's literally how retarded you sound to me. Stop trying to LARP as a real person.
>>18772013Oh, so it's actually "KJVmostlyism". Didn't know you were a syncretist.
>>18772045Don't act like the New Testament predates Plato
>>18772050>It's still LARPing
>>18772051>No counterargumentI accept your concession
>>18772052>It's hallucinatingIn the city I rule during the millennial reign I think I will mandate lobotomies for such cases. Until then, you know what time it is!
>>18772053Malding because he has no way to refute the point being made
>>18772054The raped mystic will always resort to pretending to not understand. Don't blame yourself.
>>18772057Keep seething without any real arguments. That's all you can do.
>>18772054
>>18772013>Reminder that Plato discussed hell (Tartarus) hundreds of years before it appeared in any Jewish textHe also discussed how people should be murdered for disrespecting Zeus. Are you sure you want to appeal to Plato to make your argument? He's pretty based, I don't think you can truly handle it. Plato worshiped at the temple of Apollo quite frequently during his lifetime. It's where he claimed a lot of his inspiration came from
>>18772052>actually bisexual pagan phosophers were christiansLmao. Enjoy hell.
>>18772062I'm not arguing they were Christian, I'm saying Christian mythology stole heavily from them
This earth is already paradise, ancient Persian kings knew this, which is why they had lush private gardens which stand in stark comparison to the deserts that were there at the time. They filled the verdant with milk and honey which flew like water and even if that wasn't orchestrated he could drink milk straight from the udders of the cow, no one there to judge him. All the sex he wants. He was Adam, not a care in his mind. Meanwhile outside of the gardens sand monsters and constant chaos were found, taxes were found, jizyah was found. That's Tartarus(hell) because of the sins of the people there. That being the God delusion. Plato basically admits to this in the first paragraph
>>18772061He's the original cult leader personality with his attack against human reason in the cave allegory and his resulting philosophy that he should be philosopher king to tell you what's real and what isn't. Plato's really transparent in that.
>>18772093>He's the original cult leader personalityNo that would be Akhenaten the Egyptian Pharaoh. Plato wasn't a cult leader, he was an academic nerd. Pythagoras (also incredibly based) is a better example if you want to point at Greek cult leaders>his resulting philosophy that he should be philosopher king to tell you what's real and what isn'tHe never said that he should be the king of anyone. You don't understand what Plato was talking about in The Republic. Philosopher-king is an archetype that represents ontological truth about justice, wisdom, and the Form of the Good.
>>18772013>Plato is correct about TartarusWhich means he's correct about the existence of Zeus and Apollo and Athena? Hail Olympus!
Mfw when modern retards spend their lives arguing about what some ancient retards said thousands of years ago.
>>18772013Except Christians are going to Tartarus for their rejection of the gods
>>18772115You think he didn't deem himself part of the philosopher king archetype? You really are looking at shadows on the wall.
>>18772013>set on fire constantly by the AvengersWhy would Iron Man do this?
Hell is taught in the Old Testament which was written in its entirety centuries before Plato was born.
>>18772038There are thousands of hells in mythology because men by nature know God and know His judgement will come for their sins. That’s also why atheists fear death so much.
>>18772013It doesn't take a genius to realize that there are always going to be psychological concepts of "da worst place bad people ppl go" and "the best place good people go" these are just consequences of language
>>18772042uh no, plato read the bibleim sorry you failedplease
Judaism predates Plato tho
>>18772039Everything good about Christianity was taken from the Greeks.
>>18772402It doesn't the Torah was written in the 2nd century BC by Jews in Alexandria, the Exodus myth was written as a response to Manetho, not the other way around
>>18772403No part of Christianity was based on Greek literature, philosophy, or "civilization".
