When did Christian apologists start propagating the blatant lie that the Bible wasn't meant to be taken literally?

>> No.10263126

When it became evident that much of it wasn't literally true. It's a sort of war of attrition, it's all true until you can prove some of it isn't, at which point that part was never meant to be taken literally, I swear, honest guv.

Since before Christianity.

When it was subverted by Liberalism. Same thing for Reform Judaism. Islam is unironically the last Abrahamic religion whose followers still practice like it was supposed to be. Literally everything that exists in Islam also exists in Christianity and Judaism.
>And the pig, because it parts the hoof and is cloven-footed but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.
>Leviticus 11:7-8

>But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, disgraces his head. But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered disgraces her head, for it is the same as if she were shaven. For if a woman is not covered, let her be shaven. But if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, let her cover her head. A man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God. But woman is the glory of man. For man was not created for woman, but woman for man. This is why the woman ought to have a sign of authority over her head, because of the angels.
>Corinthians, chapter 11.

>If a man commits adultery with another mans wife with the wife of his neighbourboth the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death.
> Leviticus 20:10:
Everything that exists in Islam is standard Abrahamic tradition and values. Not even Shariah law is special to Islam. Jewish Halakhah law makes Shariah look tame. The only difference is that unlike Christianity which has been castrated by the French revolution. Muslims won't give a single inch to Secularists and and pander Liberals like modern Christians. They will unapologetically follow Islam exactly how it was supposed to be followed. Islam's values and traditions only became morally incorrect in the French Revolution when the West abandoned Christianity and replaced it with Liberalism as their de facto religion and ideology. The only difference is that Christians are hypocrites who no longer do what is said in their holy book and have submitted to the current Liberal/Capitalist zeitgeist while Muslims didn't.

Do you ever think maybe god is real but every religion just completely misrepresents him?

Its quite easy for me to believe that god is real
Its hard for me to believe that another human happens to know everything about him

New Testament, New Covenant, look into sedevacantism and the reasoning for rejecting the Novus Ordo and Bergoglio, Muslims and Jews are literal devil worshippers.

It's just generalisation and goal-post moving to avoid contradiction and falsification.

If God knows & loves all things, there is nothing absurd in the idea that He has communicated to humanity so that we might know & love Him in return.
