This post may work if the Bible was real and not copied from the Summerian cuneiform tablets.
Lol your silly. Well I'm not interested in debating this topic right now. Have a blessed day. Jesus Christ is King. Praying for u fren. Love u
Accusing me of being a satanist makes your belief in god showing your hypocrisy. I was an evangelical Christian for many years, but have been doing a lot of research and my eyes have now been opened. Because or your beliefs, you have decided to pass judgement on my beliefs without any evidence.
Convert to Orthodoxy.
I said you were a fool. I didn’t pass judgment on your beliefs. Fail on the victim card. Also to suggest there wasn’t any evidence to lead to a conclusion about you is simply ridiculous. You are a fool. The arguments you presented were utterly basic and so rebuttable you didn’t take issue with it. You attacked perceived ad hominem rather than upping your game on muh sumerian cuneiform. The satanist part is merely, if you aren’t for us you are against us. You stated the camp you’re in.
It is you who is the fool, relying on your belief is a blind faith, with absolutely no factual evidence of your faith. I have always said, what if your faith is wrong and one of the other world faiths is right. For all you know, maybe Islam is right, or even Hinduism. You are the fool, who has the stance that, “I am right, and whoever doesn’t share my beliefs is the fool.” Does your belief include a Bible with all 80 books, or just the 66 books included during the Council of Nicea in 325 AD? If so, then why not have all the books included.
How does the cuneiform prove the Bible isn't real? This is both appeal to antiquity fallacy and a non-sequitor. The cuneiform being older doesn't disprove the Bible, and it doesn't follow that the texts having historical agreements makes the Bible false.
If anything, the cuneiform is historical attestation to the accuracy of the Bible in its history.
Yes, clay tablets were still around in the days of the Assyria (different language, though) and are a cross-reference. Also Egyptian documents and carvings--the oldest mention of YHWH is a phonetic pictograph in a ruined temple in upper Egypt.
Not saying the Bible is false, merely saying many of the stories have come from the tablets.
Nearly every single religion on Earth has a flood story.
It's because there was a flood, not because of some tablets that they didn't even read.
The reason they all have the same stories is that the stories are true. The Bible is simply God setting the record straight as all the other stories, older or newer, get some details wrong.
And the Cuneiform tablets say there wasn’t just one boat, but several throughout the world. This made it easier to repopulate the earth with people and animals.
The only agreement of Sumerian and Hebrew religion is that creation happened through divine action and there was a great flood. Sumerian was a dead language by 2000 BC, having been replaced by Akkadian, starting from Sargon the Great, 2334 BC. Meanwhile the people who became the Israelites had a different language, culture, and religion entirely from the Sumerians and rejected the later versions of the Sumerian gods. Moses is credited with writing the earliest books of the Bible, about 1600 BC, when Sumer was long gone. The earliest written Hebrew religious scroll we have now is the "silver scrolls" from about 700 BC and bears no relation to anything Sumerian.
For the moment, as I haven't seen him before, I'll take the most charitable view, that he is misinformed and parroting ignorant opinions. But I agree that antagonizing is not the key to persuasion. He isn't the only one in this thread.
