Title says all.
Christians, Muslims, and jews claim that pagan gods are "muh ebil satan".
But the abrahamic god that they worship literally tells the jews, his "chosen", that they are allowed to have slaves.
Christians and muslims both owned slaves too, infact, muslims still have slaves to this day.
The abrahamic god told his follwers to draw the blood of children, and permanently mutilate said children, in horrific circumcision rituals.
Who are the top three groups that do circumcision? jews, muslims, and Christians.
So, how do abrahamic religions have the audacity to claim that pagan gods are all "muh ebil debble"?
How do abrahamic religions have the audacity to call their god "pure good"?
Honestly?
If that is what God and his followers are like...
I would really hate to see what satan and his followers are like.
Omni benevolemt, which is how he is described.
>Pure good compared to what?
Err, he is ment to represent being, as in creation/existence itself. I guess he is pure good in comparison to obliteration and entropy, at least when the obliteration/decay of non-evil things is concerned.
>Did God do something you think is evil?
Telling jews it's ok to have slaves. Promoting circumcision.
The problem with terms like "pure good" and "omni benevolent" are these terms are subjective.
Vegans, National Socialists, libertarians, conservatives and pedos all have vastly different concepts of pure good.
>Telling jews it's ok to have slaves. Promoting circumcision.
I'm not the best Christian to ask about this because, as a Red Letter Christian, I don't care too much about jwish Mosaic Laws of the Old Covenant as defined within the Torah.
The circumcision and slavery scripture you are referencing are jwish laws, not Christian laws. Christians weren't bound by the jwish Old Covenant laws because they were "laws for the jws" AND those laws were fulfilled and passed from the law when they were replace by the New Covenant when Jesus died upon the cross.
There are all kinds of stomach-turning shit in the jwish Mosaic laws: stuff about remorselessly beating your entire family to death for the crime of not being jwish enough (Deuteronomy 13:6-10) and mass murdering entire cities for the crime of not being jwish (Deuteronomy 13:13-17) to name two silly jwish nonsense examples.
That said, there are some teachings from Jesus Christ that many would consider politically incorrect, such as New Testament teachings that clearly state sodomites don't go to heaven (1 Corinthians 6:9-10) and anyone who persists in promoting sin should be publicly rebuked so severely that others will feel fear rather than pride in their sin (1 Timothy 5:20).
Personally, I have no issue with these Teachings. They may seem harsh to some but I think they are necessary tough-love measures to prevent harm and maintain a healthy culture.
As a Red Letter Christian, I can't think of any major moral issues I'm wrestling with over the Life and Teachings of Jesus Christ.
If you have one, perhaps we can discuss it?
>If you have one, perhaps we can discuss it?
Jesus says that him and his father are the same, which implies you can't worship Jesus without worshipping his father.
His father tell jews they are allowed to have slaves and beat slaves.
Also, i made this thread cuz me and my Christian friend had discussion last night.
He said that goyim must listen to certain parts of torah.
I agree that God and Jesus share the same perfect morality because they are God.
I don't have faith that God allowed jws to have slaves and beat them because I suspect flawed jwish authors wrote those laws because they enjoyed those things.
3,000 BC kikes had all kinds of nonsense beliefs even after they wrote the Torah, including contradictory scriptural beliefs in multiple Gods. The Torah alludes to their silly polytheistic nonsense more than once.
I suspect God stamped out the legitimacy of that jwish Mosaic law nonsense and replaced with with the New Covenant of Christianity for good reason.
Which is why I'm a Red Letter Christian.
How do you explain Christians who demand that other Christians listen to the torah, or parts of the torah?
God gave us free will to believe whatever we want, for whatever reason we want or for no reason at all.
Many Christians see bible research as a life-long journey leading to a closer fellowship with Jesus Christ.
Christians who claim to definitively know the mind of God or the one true way to interpret scripture often only exist during heated debates because they want to win 😃.
These people can be obnoxious but they can also provide interesting perspectives worth considering.
For me, studying what we can verify about 2,000 years of human history (excluding most of what is taught in schools and Hollywood and the History Channel which is revisionist jew pity-party fan-fiction) showed me how the life and teachings of Jesus Christ seem a perfect foundation for past, present and future human culture.
To think the Gospel came from a normal carpenter from Nazareth from 2000 years ago seems incredulous.
I can't fault the Red Letter Gospel and it seems like a miracle that we were gifted it.
