On the subject of Hell and Salvation

[possibletarian]

Yes, actually, it's quite different. The Bible is not at all about God appearing in human form and having superficial relationships with people. It's about Him having the most intimate of relationships with everyone, where He willfully lays down His life for us all to save us. That is nothing like any other religion (again, to my knowledge, others are free to prove me wrong).

And can you prove that the mythical relationship exists outside of your own head ?

And how did he lay his life down exactly, did god cease to live at any point ?

  And..... the stones that would seem to be older.... and layed down before those of the culture that created the Abrahamic diety..... Like, oh lets say, the people that inhabited the Nile river system for some EDIT: six or so thousand years?

Just curious to know your point of veiw.  

6,000 years is the limit, and that dates back to Adam and Eve. Anything beyond the 6,000 number is junk science based on assumptions and unreliable dating methods.

Again simple assertion.

You really need to get out of your head that you can simply assert things, all evidence points to the Yahweh myth being a minor god and a subordinate to El.

I didn't assert anything, I'm actually pointing out that your assertions are unfounded because there is no definitive proof that one came before the other. How do they know the Canaanite "El" isn't the copycat? Who cares about their supposed "evidence," your own citation says the following: "All of these stipulations and details were applied to the god later, however; it is unclear exactly when Yahweh was first worshipped, by whom, or how."

So, I'd have to say that you really need to get out of your head that you can simply assert things.

Well did you even read the article? you are the one making the claim that that no god pre-dates yaweh, where is your evidence ? I'm saying your claim is unsafe and you foolishly quote a passage saying no one can be sure back at me, which is exactly the point I'm making.

The passage quoted was actually from the bible, I'm glad to see that you don't consider it evidence, we may actually be getting somewhere.

'Junk science' ?

Yeah, I really bet all those highly paid geologists who quite successfully find the myriad mineral deposits which drive the fundamentals of our economic society with their "Millions or years old planet" are really fust faking it and pulling out the Dowsing rods when no kne is looking.

:lol:

You're a funny guy.

Or maybe Gal. Who knows what lurks behind the screen?

Of course they are faking it you unbeliever
