Leviticus is really hard to get through. It's among the worst books in the whole thing.

Still, the Bible is fucking hilarious.

The New Testament is a lot like Xenogears Disc 2 in that they clearly ran out of time and budget in the middle of making it. So they took the only parts they really had done - the main Gospel story and Revelations - and padded it out with a bunch of alternate Gospel outtakes and a bunch of random letters and so on.

Look, I believe in a God but uh, the bible seems like horseshit written by a bunch of dudes to shape the world in their image.

I also think it's MASSIVELY fucked up that people ignore all these evil things in the bible.


But don't you see? The OT doesn't count. Except it kinda does because Jesus even says that he's there to CONFIRM the OT to be true. The God of the Bible is a bi-polar mad man who acts like a child playing with ants. Christians haven't read the Bible; that's how they excuse the evil shit - simple. I read the Bible when I was a teenager and rejected my Christian faith soon afterward.

Warning, Green Man: the Bible is among the biggest things that leads to non-belief.

There's a perfectly reasonable explanation for that - what G was actually promising is that he wouldn't massacre humanity in that particular way (yes, this is seriously how people rationalise it).
Best part is pointing out that the whole 'thou shalt not kill' thing is an obvious crock, and getting ' ::) obviously kill means murder' in response - which is unhelpful to say the least, as the book gives no instruction as to how to tell the difference (until you discover, of course, that killing only counts as murder when it's a jew - killing anybody else is inadvisable but not forbidden).

So his son's come in to town after everything is fine and everyone's dicks have been mutilated, and murder EVERY ONE and take all the women as wives/slaves, and plunder the entire city of everything of value.

All the times Ive been to church with my grandparents Ive never heard any stories like the ones I'm reading. It was all "love thy self and those around you, do good deeds" and not "rape your old man to keep the bloodline going". Has the bible been rewritten to exclude all this shit or what?

Biggest revelation for me recently was finding out that at least early on the religion is not monotheistic.  There are lots of Gods in the bible and they're only 'false' gods in the sense that Jews aren't supposed to worship them (that's what the covenant they made with G is all about - it's an exclusivity deal).  It's not like the text denies they exist or says they really demons or something - they're real, just weaker and it's sinful to worship them.  Lot of the references are excised but you don't need to be a superscholar to spot them and it's really not some reptoid-style conspiracy about the book or anything.  Once it's been pointed out and you read the early parts you can't go back.

I love how god hardens Pharaoh's heart. Yeah, create beings with free will, and be a dick by removing it just to prove yourself as "honorable". Why is god worth worshipping if he has the audacity to take away our free will just to "prove" something. What's so special about hebrews over all other god's children? This story is distinguished mentally-challenged.

The whole thing is stupid. Were the writer's of the OT distinguished mentally-challenged? Anyone with a modicum of intelligence and taste for history knows that Egypt was a culture hub during these years and they documented history like mother fuckers and this could easily refute the "historicity" of the Hebrew slavery years. Egypt was a settle land with among the greatest scientists and philosopher's with a penchant for history, the arts, and penmanship. Why did they choose EGYPT as the basis for the story? People in Egypt could READ AND WRITE. During the period of time that the bible claims that the Hebrews were in Egypt, the factual Egyptian population statistics by way of census totaled around three million.

The Jewish population given in the bible totaled around 2 million.

If 2 million people up and left Egypt, this would take away a tremendous amount of resources and the Egyptians recorded EVERY SINGLE THING, especially things that went to and fro between their country but there's no documented report that 2 million people just up and left Egypt.

Further still, god created plague after plague, and allowed the Israelites to plunder Egypt, and Egypt were left with no more pharaoh. None of this is documented and this is yeaaaaaaars before the plunder and destruction Alexandria or Egypt via war. Even when god does his magic like making the Nile turn into blood, Pharaoh's magicians can do it too! If this story is real, then how come modern "magicians" can't do what people were able to do 3000 years ago? BUBUBUBUBU-ING.

The Jews were never in Egypt to begin with. Even archeologists say that the people who made the pyramids weren't slaves at all, but laymen, just citizens.

Not to mention, notice how small the world is in the Bible. During this period of time in history, the Greeks and the Romans were at the top of their game, China was a hub for scholarship, philosophy, the arts, and culture.

Yet god gives a lowly desert tribe who can't even read a book about their triumphs? L.O.L.

I like how god blackens Pharaoh's heart, making him stubborn and incapable of saying no to god, so on the night before the hebrews leave egypt he just goes and kills the first born of everyone. To make matters more hilarious, in order to ward off this curse, you have to dap the blood of your food for that night on the door frame of your house, and eat it in an EXACT, SPECIFIC WAY. Or else you'll be cursed!

And then even when Pharaoh gives up and has lost EVERYTHING, god hardens his heart even FURTHER and makes Pharaoh and his top guards chase after Moses and the Israelites, and drowns them.

THAT'S THE KICKER. Pharaoh was willing to let the Israelites go MANY, MANY TIMES BEFORE THIS, but God refused to let Pharaoh make his own decision, and decided to prolong the release of the Israelites and bring about the utter humiliation of the Egyptians for his own "honorable" purposes.

Consider what all happens in the bible, then pick up ANY book on Classic Egyptian history during their apex.

Then laugh and gawk.

*shrug* I've never been around any other ethnic group that flaunts it the way Jews do.  They're the only ethnic group I've met who bring up things that happened a thousand years ago as a sign of their persecution.  Most others have gotten over that by now.

The thing about other groups is that at least there's documented cases of their mistreatment. There is literally zero proof the jews were slaves in Egypt aside from the bible, which isn't a good metric for historical accounts when it has talking snakes and burning bushes.

How many israelites does god kill while in the desert?


edit:

For dancing naked around Aaron's golden calf - 3000
Aaron's sons for offering strange fire before the Lord - 2
A Blasphemer - 1
A man who picked up sticks on the Sabbath - 1
Korah, Dathan, and Abiram (and their families) - 12
Burned to death for offering incense - 250
For complaining - 14,700

I'm on the part where the Israelites massacre entire cities - men, women, and children - without mercy. Yahweh hardens the heart of a local ruler, denying them free will, Israelites ask to pass through, the ruler says no cuz god decided to take away their free will and make them stubborn, god curses them in return, and the israelites precede to massacre every single person.

Yeah, notice how Yahweh's powers recede as the tale goes on. The guy goes from creating a planet and all life in six days to plagues involving frogs and blood to stone tablets to an ark that has to be carried all the time. Makes sense that the best he can do these days is appear in clouds and show his son's face on a piece of toast.

Not to mention, notice how small the world is in the Bible. During this period of time in history, the Greeks and the Romans were at the top of their game,

The earliest references to the exodus story come up in Israel in the 8th century BC, so a mythical exodus from Egypt would have taken place quite some time before that. Roman myth doesn't even have Rome founded until 753 BC, with the Roman Republic not founded until around 509 BC, and Roman hegemony in Italy in the 3rd Century BC.  Not quite "at the top of their game" in the same timeframe, himumumu. :P

I see no miracles. Miracles as explained by the bible, are supernatural events that defy explanation. Every thing in our natural world can be explained, provided science is there to examine it. Today's "miracles" seem to border between the lines of vanity (Tebow) and naivety/idiocy (Jesus' face in a cloud/piece of toast).

Satan is described in the book of Job and all throughout the New Testament.  And he's referenced (not specifically by name) as adversary, serpent, etc throughout the Old Testament.  But the story about him being God's righthand man in the book of Job and IIRC him being cast out of Heaven is somewhere in The New Testament (only read the New Testament once cuz it's a snore).

Edit: Found it.  In Luke and Revelations.

"And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him"

A lot of people assume Satan rules hell, and all of this stuff. The modern idea of hell is mostly due to post-biblical literature, notably Dante's Divine Comedy. In the bible, to my memory, hell is only described a lake of fire and Satan isn't its ruler.

It depends on whether you actually believe Satan was cast out of heaven twice.  If he's actually betrayed God yet.  In Job it says that Satan dwells in 2nd Heaven and has access to 3rd Heaven.  That implies he has not actually been cast out yet and when it does happen that he will be cast to Earth. 

And then if he does get cast out of Heaven twice then why would God give him free reign to enter third heaven?  It's the holiest of holies.  so much so that according to other scriptures only Christ resides there and no one will have access to it until the rapture that's spoken of in Revelations when the bible explicitly says homeboy will be cast to Earth.

That's all pure interpretation though.  Nothing actually says he's cast into second heaven.  Hell, the different heavens are actually interpretation just from Paul mentioning a third heaven and people assuming there must be a second and first heaven.  Then they considered the air second heaven and Satan is referred to as Prince of the Air so they assumed he has a kingdom there.  But none of that is actually said.  It's pieced together from very vague references.

edit: He's actually called "Prince of the Power of the Air"  Even more vague

Another interpretation is that he doesn't just have free reign to third heaven, he is free to go anywhere and do anything until tribulation.

Edit: he won't actually be confined anywhere until Revelations where an Angel will come down with a key to the abyss and tie him up at the bottom and seal the door so that he can't deceive anyone again.

7And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Gen. 1:7-8


And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years.
Gen. 1:14

Genesis describes a heaven below one area of water, yet above the water on the earth. God decrees this heaven includes the mechanics that control days, nights, years etc: this is clearly talking about space, planets, the sun.

Yet nowhere in the bible is there reference to god residing in this heaven, which must spawn the question: where is god?

And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
Revelation 4:6


John sees a large area of frozen water, above which he sees the throne of god. That's two heavens. And Revelations says there is a heaven that is on earth, named the first heaven

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
Revelation 21:1


The bible clearly says Satan does not roam earth until he is cast out of "heaven" at the start of the tribulation - which means he's not in the first heaven. We know Satan was cast from the throne of god (third heaven) before Genesis, yet has limited access to it in order to troll god basically. We know there's a heaven above the first heaven/earth. At this point it just becomes a logic exercise. Satan is predominantly in the second heaven until god kicks him to earth

Satan is a dragon like alien who repeatedly tempts humans into sins who told God to go fuck himself?

I'm in love

Hm looks like I was wrong about Satan having absolutely no access to earth: he is considered the "ruler" of earth despite working in the confines god set for him. He spends most of his time in the second and third heaven where he taunts god, and eventually will be kicked to earth and given full dominion.

    "And war broke out in heaven:  Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer.

    "So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world;  he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." (Revelation 12:7-9)

I like how Satan apparently deceives people when he was telling Adam and Eve the truth. God told what were babies in men and women's bodies not to eat from a tree for it was sinful. If they were innocent, they wouldn't know what sin or guilt or evil was. Yet he still puts it in the garden of eden and he still tells them not to eat from it, and what happens when you tell a curious baby not to touch something? They're gonna touch it! Not to mention, God is omniscient! If he can know the future, he knew what was going to happen to begin with. So if he did, he is he: 1. mad at Adam and Eve if he knew it was going to happen anyways, and 2. mad at mankind's supposedly sinful abominable life when he was the DIRECT CAUSE OF IT? Is God an IDIOT?

Much more, many modern "moderate" Christians suggest that the Adam and Eve creation myth is just that, a myth, an allegory. But once you've started to dig that hole, you've dug one up for your entire faith. If Adam and Eve is an allegory, what else is allegory? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Jesus' entire existence steeped on the Adam and Eve myth through original sin? Jesus is there to sacrifice himself for that original sin. If Adam and Eve is allegory, that means Jesus sacrificed himself for nothing, because IT DIDN'T HAPPEN, and that raises doubts on Jesus' existence instantly.

The whole thing is a crock of shit no matter how you look at it.

Jesus is black,  of course the bible isn't racist.

I love pointing that one out to people who have a big, white Jesus portrait. "Hey, where was Jesus from again? --- and what is the, say, average skin tone of people in that area?"
