I do genuinely think the people who wrote the Bible had some hidden knowledge, they knew things that we don't know
>>25401910Ah yes... they knew things that we don't know. Hmm, indeed...
>>25401910maimonides literally says this.
>>25401910I think they were on drugs. They certainly could not write what they meant with any kind of rational structure. Their choice of metaphors indicates an almost fantasy like view of the world. Without a doubt they had no divination skills because their writing gives no indication of being able to describe future events using the words that would be created in the future. It’s so unclear that I don’t even think they could put together a three paragraph essay.
That pic goes hard, WW1 ruined Europe
>>25402012So all 40 something authors over a period of 1,500 years were on drugs? The same kind of drugs, or?
>>25402012>Their choice of metaphors indicates an almost fantasy like view of the worldYou're either misunderstanding their metaphors or are arrogant enough to think you have a more accurate view of the world.
>>25401910Everybody knows things you don't know, and everybody else doesn't know either. It's called consciousness and perspective. But let's talk about you, and your mental deficiency. The fallacy is called circularity. "The people who wrote the bible told the truth, because they were inspired by God.""The devil's trick is to get you to think he doesn't exist."Circularity is when the conclusion is or creates the premise. While all conclusions "prove" ALL of their premises, by inference, in a circularity, the conclusion proves only one, with everything else being carried along as baggage. So, if there were no God, there could not be a divine spirit making the writers tell the truth.If there were no devil, there would be no one to trick you into thinking he was not there, which he isn't without the premise created by the conclusion.
>>25402232I just know it takes more than 7 days to create a planet and that Noah can’t live to be 950 years and the sea can’t be split with a staff and God doesn’t demand someone sacrifice their child and you can’t live inside the mouth of a whale and a son of God that is also God is nonsense and monotheism isn’t possible when you have devils, angels, demons with quasi god like powers and that yku can’t be resurrected from the dead. Har logical conclusion is there then either the writers were on heavy psychedelics or are just fiction writers.How could anyone grounded in the real world believe any of the bullshit? Like how can you walk on this planet and believe this shot when all of it contradicts your day to day experiences? Do alarm bells not go off on your head?
>a bunch of dehydrated people genetically prone to schizophrenia use their barbaric language to jot down some mythos for why everything exists>this turns into a fraternity cult instead of pure schizophrenia (but there's still a lot of that)>some people find these scrawls later>extrapolate on them for thousands of years>infer things that none of the original authors conceived of nor could have conceived of given the region's average IQ>fight wars over it>ultimate culmination is Israel, the blackmail human trafficking extortion hub of the world
>>25402330You're a fool.
>>25402012Has never read the Bible.
>>25401910Heb says past saints lived and died without ever hearing the name of the Redeemer that job called on simply as Redeemer
>>25402330You haven't lived long enough.
>>25402330>I just knowYou don't know shit
>>25401910Of course they did, they were a bunch of Jews in the Library of Alexandria before they torched it to destroy the evidence of the Torah being 100% made up history to consolidate their people. All inspired by Athenian culture, using it as a launching point.
>>25402338Abrahamism summed up, only missed the part where the Roman's nearly wiped this nonsense off the face of the earth only to get oneshotted by the mysterious rise of (((christianity)))
>>25402521Any good history works that dive into this? Christian judgement after death vs Platos Myth of Er is strikingly similar so I've been curious of the linkage here.
>>25402481I know my world view is closer to TRUTH than the SCHIZO psychadellic mushroom broth drinking druggies who wrote the Bible. Christians mostly just have a fundamental inability to step out of their world view. My world view is much simpler - I can’t answer and tell you all the answers to the universe with certainty BUT anybody with a BRAIN can look at the Bible and point to all the bullshit. Of course Jews/Christians can make apologies and excuses but the totality of NONSENSE speaks for itself. I always think the mental CONTORTiON of the explanation for the trinity is the best example. Just complete nonsense to explain nonsense.

>>25402652t. literalist (low iq)probably think sam harris is the smartest guy alive
The people who wrote the books that would eventually become the bible were simply borrowing ideas from all the sun god cults of the region and explaining them in a way the average goat-herding dumbass could comprehend. All that yummy delicious mysticism was strictly gatekept by the ruling class and their scribes until the final millennium BC, doled out in bite-sized nuggets just enough to get the unwashed masses to obey the guy in the goofy hat standing on top of the ziggurat. When farming and irrigation got a little bit better, people spread out and you couldn’t keep an eye on them all at once. One of the reasons we don’t know the original authors are because they didn’t want to be known, because getting caught writing that shit down and passing it out was an instant death sentence.In essence, it was just a bunch of dudes who were smart enough to write down vague interpretations of what they’d heard from their betters. They’d secretly circulate the texts and it would find its way to another guy who was smart enough to add his two cents, and so on.Maybe some of them were on drugs or visited by aliens or whatever Joe Rogan’s theory of the week is but I don’t think that’s likely.
>>25401910Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. [Jude 3]God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds. [Heb 1:1-2]Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us. [2 Tim 1:13-14]Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. [Jn 16:13]
>>25401910Same.>>25402521Interesting, I never considered that they may have had access to the library.
>>25401910
>>25401910That's because they were divinely inspired by God
>>25402330>I just know it takes more than 7 days to create a planethumanity's entire collective knowledge is available to you and yet you're somehow dumber than 1st century desert peopletry reading anything about the early church
>>25401910>hidden knowledgehttp://ancient-spooks.de/Not just the Bible, most ancient texts have second meanings intended only for certain audiences. This is what the mystery cults and their initiation were really about, revealing the 2nd truth behind words using "puns".
>>25401910No.have a good day.
>>25401910The bible is a mistranslated ‘testament’ or document that outlines the testifying of individuals against another in a court case. The court case was against a figure that everyone in Rome had a problem with named ‘Jesus’ who was the fall guy for all the crimes of the Jews at the time. Then since the Romans lost control of the narrative at the time, Jews slowly supplanted mystical bullshit into the documentation and sold it to the general public as a nice schizo story for idiots to replace their previously held pagan beliefs with.
>>25401910Is that possible that some of the individuals that wrote the tanakh had understood phrases that were written up on the illiad or the enjoyed the favor of the muses or of wise athena?
>>25402338the bigger brain take is that all of those wars were downstream from the Roman empire anyway. It was only ever really about the centralisation of control, or resistance to the centralisation of control. People pay lip service to the actual religon.Obviously the Bible doesn't fucking say "do an inquisition".
Thats why im trying to convert to Judaism. Seems lile they know a lot os stuff we dont.
After 2000+ years of analysis and interpretation any text can become profound and full of wisdom .
>>25401910ps2 rock band guitar hero algorithm
A lot of the bible is just old indo european, Indian and other cultural mythologies shamelessly remixed and rewritten to suit the narrative of the Jews. Parts of it however, are genuinely EXTREMELY ancient and was inherited from the Hyperboreans
