Why I Think God Is An Anarchist

Hi @melek (no reply option on your post below...)

Why would i need Mauro Biglini ...

Because you seem to say that Elohim means God, when it actually means 'the gods', plural.
I know the trad explanation for the plural, but it doesn't wash.

The Elohim are not the highest creator, they are a creation. The true Creator isn't even mentioned in the Bible.
You only have to read the first page of Genesis to know it's not the One True God, because they say: "Let US make man in OUR image". It's all in plain sight...

And in fact, we can determine that the Elohim were actually human, and capable of interbreeding with humans from Genesis 6, and all that follows after. So obviously they're not deities, but people. Fairly bad people by all accounts...
And Mauro has a point. Why would God like the smell of burnt flesh? That sounds just plain demonic...

So basically, you take everything the bible says..throw it out the window...make up some stuff...and call it a day...and follow the writings of people who spent their lives studying a book they do not believe in.

We have difference of belief, it will probably always stay that way.

The common understanding of the bible held for 1000s of years is less important too you then some very modern 20th century writes.

That is you belief system. Its interesting, but the quotes you have picked are being interpreted by assumption. They best interpretation of a text is the simplest. "The lord your God is one"

What do you think this means?

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."

"Why would God like the smell of burnt flesh?" Have you ever had roasted lamb.

here is a good quote "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind."
