(28,784 posts)because their god, according to their interpretation, needed people to be stupid to believe their stories. I thought... what kind of god requires stupidity? ignorance isn't bliss - it's ignorance.
the whole creation story - making Eve lesser, seeing the natural body and desire as bad - how f'ed up would someone's god have to be to hate like that?
some other religions noted that this god was a lesser god - and this is the reason for his jealousy. he must not have had a way with goddesses since he was so bitter toward females...not to mention the folklore that claimed Lilith was Adam's first wife, created as his equal, but that was a problem for women-hating culture so they turned her into a demon and invented Eve as a bible bimbo created from Adam - but, more likely, the story of Adam and Eve in that context was an incest story... which brings us to purity balling with dad among right wingers these days...
