Zone1 Another question to ponder

So he isnt omniscient. Thanks.

God knows what we're doing.

 

[Woodznutz]

So god failed again. lol

The people weren't smart or aware enough to be afraid. Kinda like people today.

Why did god make a 600 year old man build the ark, instead of just popping one into existence, like he did everything else?

That's the way he chose to do it. I could "pop" dressers into existence for my apartment building by buying them from a furniture store, but I choose to make them in my wood shop. I guess it's the "God" in me.

I get its about testing loyalty and obedience and such, or so I have seen explained. But then another question arises.
If god is omniscient, he didnt need to test Noah. He would have already known.

It's a mystery. No stop your questioning and just obey.

God didn't wipe out humanity just because they sinned, but because of the corruption that unbridled sin led to.

Logically, the Flood refers to the extermination of the Neanderthal. They were thrill-killing beasts and abducted many homo sapiens women and children.

Actually, all ancient cultures have similar stories as the Bible across the world, even across the globe.

They all seem to agree, for example, that there was an ancient garden where man started out, and they agree that there were "beings" from above that came down and produced giants of some sort, after which a Great Deluge came down to finish them off. They even seem to agree that men lived for hundreds of years before this event.

So, the question is why they all agree?

Dismissing it all though as stupidity and pure myth is ignorant.

The "Giants in the Earth" were some Neanderthal-type humanoids.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

And ancient Egyptians, and Sumerians, and Hindus etc.





Again, why do they all agree?


Do you have any intellectual curiosity at all or are you just here to mock the Bible?

All ancient texts are an absolute treasure as hints as to the truth of our lost past.

They All Agree Because It Was Convenient for the Ruling Classes That Made Up All These Fascist Fictions

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

But it is not just the giant agreement, there is also the Garden of Eden agreement, the agreement that men once lived for hundreds of years, the agreement that a great Deluge engulfed the earth, the agreement that being from "above" came down to share knowledge with mankind and were destroyed by the great Deluge, etc.

What are the odds? Even the Aztecs halfway around the world had similar stories.

So he isnt omniscient. Thanks.

Obviously not because they aren't the same stories.

No they dont

Like how everyone turned into fish? Or the other story about one survivor who had mute kids and a bird taught them how to talk?

Looks like your gaslighting isn't working.

We aren't talking about burgers here, we are talking about existence. Every observation you make about nature is in reality an observation of existence. This subject may be above your ability to discuss. I know it's above the OP's ability to discuss.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Why do Aztecs half way around the world have the same flood myths?

I suppose it depends on perspective.

For example, have you even gone into museums and seen beds those people slept in hundreds of years ago? Only half your body would fit on it, as they seem to be more like the size of dolls than real humans. Nutrition more than anything has helped people become bigger, much like in North Korea the average human is about 3 feet shorter than South Koreans, because Rocket man starves all his people to death.

But the point being, human beings come in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, as these giant stories are based on more truth than not,. much like the stories of the Great Deluge.

I am asking the question as to why ancient cultures seem to share common stories such as the great deluge.

Did they all come from the same culture with the same story or is it just a crazy coincidence?

Ignorant cultures coming up with a flood story means nothing. Floods happen all around the world. And they just blamed gods, because they had no other option. They didnt understand natural phenomena

 

[TNHarley]

God knows what we're doing.

But he isnt omniscient. Which contradicts scripture.

 

[TNHarley]

Again you prove the Bible is bs

More of your feelz. I ask legitimate questions, you just cant answer
