the story of babble is in close proxcimity to the ark story in the book of genesis, but in reality the time between those two events was massive, maybe even a few dozen generations... That what it would take to populate a city from Noah's two sons, and their wives.
Eight people went on the ark, and I've heard the babel story was 150 years later. People back then had no sense of scale. In any case, my point was that the flood didn't seem to work to well at eradicating evil, if Yahweh thought them building the tower was such a bad idea, and confusing their language didn't seem to do any good either in the long run. You'd think an all knowing being would be able to fix the problem the first time.
Right? I mean, the most recent episode involved a ritual human sacrifice by the most brutal method publicly available at the time, and apparently that didn't even take. Now he supposedly has to come back again, and that whole ordeal will take thousands of years and involve sealing most of humanity into Hell with the demons or some shit like that, while a meager fraction of the human race gets to spend the rest of eternity groveling before Gaud...and you know what? That probably won't solve the problem of evil, either.
Maybe it's because Gaud is evil, and therefore everything he creates is evil and everything he does is evil.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
