Same goes for the Christians on this board and the Jesus narrative.
No suspicion at all that “Jesus is the only way” might be a psyop.
As a 38 year old man who spent most of my teens and adult life as an agnostic who thought he was truly open-minded, and then came to be a beliver in Yeshua six years ago - only after years of massive historical research and extensive study into prophecy, I would argue that it just might be YOU who are making the assumptions here.
Sometimes, it may shock you to know, we have actual reasons we believe. Just wanted to throw that out there.
EDIT: And besides, you got to be kidding me if you think you are going to have a fruitful and thoughtful debate of deep spiritual, religious, and metaphysical concepts on an anonymous forum on the internet in 2022. I've never heard anyone say "that comment under that meme post really converted me to 'insert belief system.'" Thats just silly, come on now.
Same here buddy.
The difference is that I'm not declaring metaphysical matters to be fact with absolutely no wiggle room. The ego of many people, like my dad, to say any scripture besides the Bible is demonic is way out of line.
The Bible is a sacred collection of texts. It isn't the only sacred collection of texts.
The issue would be who says a text is sacred and why. The Bible is sacred to me only because it is a collection of 66 books written by 40-something different authors over the course of one thousand five hundred years or so, and yet somehow manages to tell one story, with interweaving subplots, inter-connected themes, and fulfilled prophecies that stretch in fulfillment over thousands of years. At the very least, such a thing is only conclusively possible with a divine overseer of some sort.
Admittedly, I agree with the idea that there are more sacred texts outside of the Bible. Heck, the book of Enoch for instance had a massive impact in turning me to a biblical worldview.
But yeah, I mean if you're talking about say the Vedas or the Babylonian Kaballah or something, the reason Bible Believers would ultimately conclude such texts to be demonic, is because the teachings trace back to the very same fallen entities God is at war with in the Bible (from the view of the biblical paradigm at least, see Enoch, mentioned above)..
If you are referring to maybe some Gnostic texts or something, the reason folks ultimately conclude them to be demonic is because they teach a sort-of self-worship. A "you can become like/become one with God" type of message.
I've read a ton of ancient sacred texts (not that it matters, but double major in history and philosophy with a focus on Ancient Religons) - and ultimately probably now have the same views as your Dad...lol.
I guess my point was I came to them through research and reason rather than "oh thats what i grew up hearing in church."
You're definitely more well read than I am, but I've dipped my toes in enough variety to understand that there is a massive deception going on regarding history and religion. I haven't read the Book of Mormon, and was super dismissive of it, but now it seems that they were right about higher civilizations doing stuff in North America before Columbus and Incas and such.
I'm not convinced that Yeshua / Jehovah / YHWH is a good deity. And I suspect that there were demigods hanging out and influencing culture alongside giants and other so called mythical dramas.
There are reports of Gandalf / Noah-like white guys with beards roaming around the Earth helping people post deluge recover and regain tech after hiding out in caves.
I can buy the idea that THE CREATOR came down as an avatar in Jesus' form and did awesome stuff. He just wasn't the only avatar doing awesome stuff.
And there also isn't any way to know if our creator is actually at the top of the hierarchy.
Amen Brother! It is definitely NOT the only sacred text. The "bible" was for the Jewish people. So God only loves the jews? I think not. But wow don't challenge the zealots on that point.
