One of the Byzantines' rationalisations for why they kept getting their shit pushed in by the Muslims was that God preferred not being depicted in art.

>is this painting I made heckin insulting to an omnipotent being
You have lost the plot if you start caring about this shit lmao.

Why? Jesus himself called God "Father" and instructed others to do so.

That's the most reddit comment I read on here. You should unironically kill yourself subhuman.

Trying to understand or otherwise reduce any aspect of him by your constrained cognitive systems is heresy. He is not, good, evil, caring, capricious, or all, or none. He is transcendent. His transcendence is all I can say without stepping out of bounds myself, but needless to say, all theologians should throw themselves on the pyre.

No. It’s traditional. He was a man shaped fertility bull god
When they started to worship the written word, the abstraction of yhwh, they thought to strip away the embarrassing image of his giant cock and bull head. Likely the time they started chopping penis tips off. Readers can get really anal and crazy about sex, you know.

How can you be proud of belonging to a site where your opinion gets blocked?

Either you are an unironical cuck or you don't have any sense of belonging, lacking several basic needs.

Yes, it's been condemned in some council.

I am a wholesome chungus atheist pro-multiculturalist yet they sadly ban me for antisemitism and misogyny and whatnot so I have had to post on 4chan instead for the past 10 years, where I am frequently told I am a redditor

God is petty like that if you haven't paid attention

Because, i think the idea here is supposed to be that God is huge, and Jesus is normal sized, but honestly it just makes Jesus look like a manlet.

>>18775833
Jesus is a manlet

>>18775833
thats Jesus as a child. In iconography its called "Christ Emmanuel"

>>18775461
No. Believing that He has a human body in the way the Son does is, but depicting Him as an old man is backed up by Daniel's vision of the Father as the "Ancient of Days" seated on His throne

YHWH IS NOT GOD; YHWH IS SATAN.

>expecting a religion that constantly has iconoclastic spergouts to be good at depicting humans
lol

Anyways it's an actual theological question because tl;dr depicting Jesus as a baby implies that he was capable of growth which is a grave Christological sin which is punishable by eternal damnation (every other possible position in opposition to this position is also a sin btw). To square the circle they just make him a manlet in various stages of learning throughout his life.

That's fucking retarded dude they got a baby to play Jesus at my church's Christmas play.
