Is becoming like God good or evil?

[Greatest I am]

“Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.” ~ Matthew 5:48


Is there any bigger bull shit verse in the entire bible? I submit that there is not.

#1 - All our righteousness is as "filthy rags" to god. The bible (god's supposed word) regularly drills it into us that we are so far from perfect that he actually had to offer himself up as a blood sacrifice to save our pathetic sinful selves. Perfect isn't even a possibility for us and the Bible regularly makes that very clear. Huge contradiction (one of many).

#2 - Father in heaven is perfect?!? Umm, all evidence points to the contrary. For christs sake he drowned the entire world when he realized he'd fucked up. Later on he wanted to commit genocide again but an "imperfect human" talked him out of it. Yahweh is so far from perfect that its difficult not to shoot milk out of your nose while doing a spit-take when reading Matthew 5:48 (assuming one was drinking milk at the time).

It's a stupid fairy tale for weak pathetic people. I can't answer the OP because I don't strive to be like angry mythological beings in my life. You might as well ask me if it's right or wrong for me to attempt to be like Mr. Tumnus.

No argument and yes, the bible can be made to say almost anything thanks to all the contradictions.
