Your stance on Hard Atheism

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

And Yahweh was originally and ugarit god. Ugaritic texts, discovered in the ruins of the ancient city of Ugarit in 1928, have shed new light on the origins and development of the early Jewish religion. The chief god was El, and his wife was Asherah. They had seventy divine children, characterized as the stars of El. Among them was Baal, Astarte, Anat, the sun-goddess Shapshu, the moon god Yerak, and Yahweh. The servants of the divine household of the gods were messenger-gods. These appear to be what the Old Testament later refer to as angels.

And once again, how about your stance that many christians believe in the existence of many gods in light of this? Isaiah 45:5: I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.

Not letting you off the hook.

The word Hebrew word for "Lord" means "existing one;" the word used here for God, is the plural "gods." This would seem to imply in context that he is declaring himself the creator of the gods.

No, the Hebrew for Lord is 'adon' (plural 'adonai') and means 'master'.
