>>16003273
a god that sends bears to maul 40 children to death cannot be possibly worth worshiping

he knew his son was gonna get resurrected and come back to heaven, whats the big deal

i mean it wasnt even his son it was him in another form and he knew he'd be ok

hmmm this sounds made up

>>16003363
>hmmm this smells like a fedora

>>16003255
faggot, if you can give a life but cannot take it, how do you know value of life?

>>16003255
This was God's litmus test for Man. He chose his most beloved son and requested him to do the unthinkable. Had Abram defied and told God to fuck off, He would raise humans back to the garden of Eden and see us as his noble equals. But Abram obeyed, and showed God that there's no fixing kikes and their kikery.

>>16003375
hmmm this smells like a no argument

>>16003255
It was just a test

There's no religion board, so we're stuck either here or on /x/, but you always get gnostics and pagans whenever you talk about religion over there

You're thinking of a different story

>>16003283

>>16003405
Dumb

Sometimes the circumstances of life demand you do grisly things, especially if you live in the bronze age, yet we exalt it by living and finding rapport in the ebb and flow of events that inevitably end up being important or favorable
If you are strong in your principles, your god given principles, the less obvious path will lead you to salvation regardless of what is written in golden filigree.

guys is this a dangling participle

>>16003255
It's about inflicting pain and suffering to yourself.

>>16003694

Based retard

>there was NOTHING else he could have done

>>16003351
the bible is a piece of literature.

christcucks and sandniggers are all cryptokikes aren't they

That is less, not more, reason to worship him.

lol it was just a prank, bro

>>16003255
God decides what is good and evil, what is just and unjust, what is moral and immoral - not you. If God, for whatever reason, decides that slaughtering millions of "innocents" is moral, then it is moral. Your human mind cannot comprehend it, unfortunately.

Its called having faith.
Also would you not bow before an omnipotent being capable of wiping out you and everyone you love?

Why do paintings like this and of St Sebastian always have the men/boys look very sexual? Mishima was attracted to this, but I don’t know why these paintings are so obviously sexualising these youths.

Can an art history person elaborate for me?

>>16003283
Ever had teenagers congregate outside of your house?

>>16003255
The story was to teach the Jews why killing your children is wrong and something God hates. This was important because of the Molech worshipers at the time that were burning their children, and continued to do so for centuries.

>>16004403
Good one, d*miurge. For a moment I almost believed that a human mind could produce such a cucked string of words, only to recoil at the thought.

>>16004935
>teach the Jews why killing your children is wrong
By showing that electing to murder your child is a proper choice as long as the command comes from a higher authority?

>>16003255
it was just a prank bro chill

A god incapable of teleologically suspending the Ethical is subordinate to the Ethical

>>16003414
Then go to /his/
