The old testament was predominantly word of mouth by retarded and illiterate desert jews, I do not trust them or their "divine inspiration" as reliable sources.
Earliest surviving copy is the Codex Sinaiticus written somewhere between 325-360 CE, so there were over 200 years of it being spread orally. Ever played chinese whispers? Bible's fake as fuuuuuck boi.
@Sui@Omega_Variant@Xenophon@AnimeTradCath@Curvin@Elliptica You died in glorious battle on the beaches of Norway believing you'd reach Valhalla only to soon realize you wind up in Todd's fantasy land on the back of a carriage set to the execution block.
@justnormalkorean@Xenophon@Sui@Omega_Variant I looked into this a while ago, it comes from something about how when you die, you get a Houri concubine, an alien gf (except it might just be your gf, but she looks like an alien now for some reason).
I'm not a big "Antichrist" respector like most Christians think of it, But it is curious that they think they are waiting for a messiah and christians an anti-messiah.
Personally I just think they are confused as to what Jesus will be returning for, and it isn't to give them 2400 slaves.
I just proved there was, nigga. They believed in the Christ before he was born, the literally makes them Christian.
Not sure how getting people to live in paradise for eternity is counter productive. Heck of a lot more motivation than "this is it, after this it's nothingness"
.. So you don't think jews exist? The messiah was foretold in the jewish tradition, and they're not all magically christians because of it, they mostly just disagree that jesus was it.
You want to score it by motivation points? Why the fuck would I be motivated to serve under some megalomaniacal retard who demands worship while acting like an abusive father. Negative motivation there tbh. Why wouldn't only one life be motivating? I think it's the opposite way around, the longer you live the less motivated you are because you think you've got more time to do it. And if you think "Oh I've got eternity", then you're gonna waste a fuck load of time on gay shit. We each have one life and two deaths, from my perspective. The first is physical death, the second is when our memory dies or corrupts beyond recognition.
... So you don't think the jews existed before the christians did? It's a very weird head canon you're running with tbh.
If the jews are such fucking liars, why do you still reference the OT? I reject all religion, especially the jewish mythology ones that I was raised under/around. I am being intellectually honest. There were no christians before christ, that's fucking obvious. You try being more intellectually honest. I hate religions for what they are, I have no problem there. The organized systems, including those variations on the bible that came from them, are corrupted beyond salvation or use imo. And all the fucking infighting over petty theological bullshit is retarded and counter productive for everyone.
the word "jew" in the bible is no different than the word "brit" is today. It is a contraction of a person who was a Judean, like brit is a british person.
I can easily prove that as early as the time of Joshua conquering the land of Canaan, the kingdoms of Israel and Judah were mixed race populations.
jewish people claim they are Israelites. They are fucking liars. I honestly have no idea why you believe them, outside of your desire to reject Christianity altogether. That is your right, I'm not gonna try and convert you, but be more intellectually honest. Just hate Christianity for what it is. I hate the churches as well.
