The Holy Bible is the Book of which there is no doubt, it is a guide for the pious.

who believe in the unseen and pray their daily prayers and spend [in obedience to Jehovah], from what has been assigned to them

Those who believe what has been revealed to them and what has been revealed before them and who firmly believe in the future life.

These are on the right path of their Lord, and they are the ones who succeed (in this life and in the life to come).

The Bible is entirely philosophically, scientifically, and aesthetically perfect. You cannot dispute this. All information that disputes the Bibles is actively and objectively wrong.

Who said that the story of Lot celebrates incest? It was the origin story of the Moabites and the Ammonites, who the Israelites were constantly at war with. It’s pretty much a nasty origin story for their rival nation written into the Bible.

By Jesus saying that genealogy to Abraham doesn't matter for salvation, he is implicitly saying ethnicity doesn't matter, priming your people to be replaced. Thus, Jesus in his universality, ironically becomes the ultimate Judas goat in the form of the greatest psychological analgesic the world has ever known, but I am not personally above using such analgesics.

This message is one of the better things to come out of Christianity (it's not exclusive to them, but it still counts), but it does its flaws. The case of General Butt Naked is a rather stark example, given the guy had an army of methed up kids and did all sorts of cannibalistic rituals before and after slaughtering a bunch of dudes. Besides, the afterlife is unknowable and likely a bullshit cope, so it's best you find your forgiveness here on Earth.

Consistent with reality and logic. The phrase "With God, anything is possible" is an example of a statement that is true. I'll show you with simple logic:
>If True, then True
This is a true statement.
>If True, then False
This is an example of a false statement
>If False, then True
>if False, then False
These are both true statements. Since the premise is false, we understand we're operating in the land of fiction and imagination, so anything that comes afterwards is logically consistent, regardless of how batshit it is.

[Anonymous No.21042090]

>>21042053
if truth is supposed to be correspondence to some real world, then there is no truth because there is no real world outside the mind. all there is is the temporally contingent incontrovertibility of the structure of our awareness, a set of basic concepts which are unexplainable but self consistent which we use as tools for modeling appearances and for cognizing our own mind (such as numbers or colors), and then the "usefulness" of scientific models, that is, whether a model of appearances applies to a particular appearance. Any conceptual system that is logically consistent is true, but it is only useful if it applies to the specific scenario you think it does.

You don't actually believe this.
Even if you do, your own statement is self-refuting because it denies the possibility of truth.
In other words, you basically fall into this trap.
>There is no truth.
>Woah is that true?

[Anonymous No.21042213]

>>21042192
it doesn't deny the possibility of truth because I don't define truth as correspondence to a real world, any judgement concerning concepts is true if it is a valid logical deduction within the conceptual system, but it has no absolute reality because then it would have to apply to every appearance, and the only thing that applies to every appearance are the incontrovertible categories of perception, which are themselves temporally contingent, because, if the future exists, there is nothing stopping me from one day conceiving of something that isn't the same as itself, for example, after I die, the only reason they are now incontrovertible is that such a future is impossible to conceive.

it's impossible to conceive of a world outside perception, therefore it's impossible to conceive of your definition of truth. you are the one who makes truth non-existent. my definition of truth is the only one that is possible.

That's a bold premise. You could be correct, but it's entirely unfalsifiable. The truth of your premise cannot be known, so it is completely irrelevant when determining truth.

>Besides, the afterlife is unknowable and likely a bullshit cope,
For people who fully comprehend how bad existence is, the potential for an afterlife is possibly a worst case scenario

If "God" is some sadistic inscrutable monstrosity like in Calvinism, or really any model of things that includes eternal torture as a possible fate, the afterlife is an unrivaled horror; even if you're "saved", your "reward" is watching countless people (most likely including at least some of your loved ones) scream in agony for all eternity (and perhaps even more horrifically, "God" will brainwash and remold you into something that will enjoy the spectacle)

While they can both be used as copes, I don't think either position is actually a "cope" in and of itself since they both have ample potential of being immeasurably terrible (although I think that in the end, the annihilationist view just ends up collapsing back into the Buddhist view of rebirth since it implies the aggregate nature of consciousness and the lack of any permanent ego)
