Hi wassup

[@PastorRU762]

Elohim is actually plural El is singular

[@keepthechange2811]

It's literally a historical narrative. Ya lost me already

He said it's book of ideas LMAO He's a snake and probably a freemason

[@TheProphetOfIre]

This is just apologetics. That's the reason he started with "the Bible doesn't need proof because it's not a history book. But here's all the proof we found!" By starting it that way, when we tell him his evidence is insufficient, he can fall back on "well that's fine because it's not history so it doesn't need evidence"

[@ramiroalvarez9968]

This talks about other religions more than the Bible... stick to the main thang!

[@TheProphetOfIre]

It's about the HISTORY of the he Bible. The patron god of Israel was just one god among a pantheon. Much like Athena is the patron goddess of Athens. Judaism came from other religions, it wasn't created in a vacuum.

Myths not history. Cross polliniztion of religious myths. Interpretations of archeological evidence and scripts. Hypotheses, speculation. Humans are social, curious, story telling, pattern seekers. 😎😇🦉

This is a load of total bollocks

Did you notice like others, he doesn’t include the animals that perished in the flood ? Just mentions all the women and children. Children . Happy are those that bash your babies against the rocks . Man conservative Republicans love that part
