adam and eve are punished for gaining knowledge which god says is forbidden fruit. this represents knowledge as taboo and accurately is reflected by the fact you have to ignore knowledge to believe god exists. it also touches on why there's never been an enlightened abrahamic believer and won't be. the goal of abrahamic religions is ignorance and blind belief out of greed to try and go back to paradise.

it reflects the cowardly nature of people who believe it.

Are you retarded? The moral of the story was that mankind should have never gained that knowledge because it results in moral subjectivism, meaning one will use morality as they see fit to justify everything. You get the very first example when God asked Adam what did he do and he immediately blamed Eve, who blamed the snake instead of taking responsibility for their actions.

I never said anything about objectivity. I said that God told them not to eat from that tree because humans wouldn't know how to apply that knowledge for the benefit of all, which is shown time and time again even today.

As for the greed thing. You got the basis of your non-argument wrong. No one earns paradise with their actions. It's not up to me or anybody else. Humans can't earn paradise because of their turncoat personality and their moral subjectivism they twist for their purpose. Only God decides who is worthy and who isn't. Also

Jesus is referring to Pilate's position as a civil magistrate, which is an office ordained by God (Rom. 9:1-7). The people guilty of the greater sin are the ones who delivered Christ to Pilate, i.e. the Jews (John 18:35-36). As for the last bit where you rephrased "Everyone on my own side listens to me", see

>>12516817
From John Calvin's commentary on John
>"Therefore he who delivered me to thee." Some think that this declares the Jews to be more guilty than Pilate, because, with wicked hatred and malicious treachery, they are enraged against an innocent man, that is, those of them who were private individuals, and not clothed with lawful authority. But I think that this circumstance renders their guilt more heinous and less excusable on another ground, that they constrain a divinely appointed government to comply with their lawless desires; for it is a monstrous sacrilege to pervert a holy ordinance of God for promoting any wickedness. The robber, who, with his own hand, cuts the throat of a wretched passenger, is justly held in abhorrence; but he who, under the forms of a judicial trial, puts to death an innocent man, is much more wicked. Yet Christ does not aggravate their guilt, for the purpose of extenuating that of Pilate; for he does not institute a comparison between him and them, but rather includes them all in the same condemnation, because they equally pollute a holy power. There is only this difference, that he makes direct attack on the Jews, but indirectly censures Pilate, who complies with their wicked desire.

The Book of Job is one. Chesterton's essay on it is quite brilliant imo:

>the speech of God, which is the culmination of the inquiry ... represents all human skeptics routed by a higher skepticism. It is this method ... has ever since been the logical weapon of the true mystic. Socrates, as I have said, used it when he showed that if you only allowed him enough sophistry he could destroy all sophists. Jesus Christ used it when he reminded the Sadducees, who could not imagine the nature of marriage in heaven, that if it came to that they had not really imagined the nature of marriage at all. ... In dealing with the arrogant asserter of doubt, it is not the right method to tell him to stop doubting. It is rather the right method to tell him to go on doubting , to doubt a little more, to doubt every day newer and wilder things in the universe, until at last, by some strange enlightenment, he may begin to doubt himself.

Tale of Tower of Bable. It is something many fail to understand. Out of context it looks like God is a massive jealous dick in face of what united humanity is capable of. Put in context: it happened after Fall, after Kain killed Abel, after wickedness reached such extents that God decimated almost all his creation. Thus when God gasps that "together they can now do anything" looking at the Tower, it means deeply flawed humanity then has capability of incredible evils. Thus God destroyed the tower and made humanity scatter around in such a manner that they could no longer understand each other. It was necessary for protection of creation and mankind itself.

The biggest redpill is that the entire collection is utterly incoherent and absolute drivel when compared to virtually any other religious canon. Literal Muslim tier writing. There might be a gem worth reading every once in a while but the amount of utter garbage in the book means that you are better off studying something more clearly articulated. It's vagueness and the most people's ignorance of the actual contents of the Bible make it a potent tool for controlling the masses.

The redpill and the forbitten fruit itself are essentially the same as both commit to the same principle, as in, when one ingests the fruit, or the redpill, one gains knowledge of the deep principle that underlays all reality. In the bible the redpill is given by Eve to Adam. But in comtemporary reality the only people handing out redpills by their own account are white nationalits. and so the own account of handing out the forbitten fruit itself or the redpill to someone has been transferred from woman to white nationalists. So women's own account or in other words their own logos or in other words their own story has been given to white nationalists who now hand out the one big redpill that is other races are more intelligent on avarage than other races. And the race that is more intelligent is their own so we can suppose they self-predicate this higher intellect to themselves since the people who complain of lesser intelligent people should in theory be of higher than avarage of the avarage intelligence of their own of some other race that they might judge themselves by. So it is clear that this higher intellect that they posess seems to give them the right to hand out these redpills as Eve does in the garden. So it is precicely clear that women's account or their logos or their story or clear account is now in the hands of white nationalists. But this intellect that Eve posessed was something given, as the knowlege of good and evil comes from the tree of life. And so it is the case with these "very intelligent men", that their intellect is given to them by society, and so the value hierarchy that once Eve gained the knowledge of, has been handed out to the white nationalists. And by looking at white nationalists perspective concerning this issue, they see intelligence as the deepest thing because it is the only factor by which we can judge anyone of how good or not good they are in contemporary society, and so it is precicely these four judgements that are good evil good bad, that Eve gains the knowledge of in the garden that kant has redpilled all germans on. As we can notice that slave good and quantity, evil and quality, master good and relation and bad and modality are the same four principle judgements. And so it is enlightment that is the source of the german phallogos or german man's story which truly is the epitome of male stupidity. And it is truly ironic that this stupidity comes from self-predication of intellect that is women's intellect turning againts themselves in the hands of enlightened german men!
