" God by Many Names " .... thats what you can take away & bury deep in your rear end, this is an evolution thread yet you don't acccept archaeology, anthropology, paleontology, what are you doing here?
One sees no compelling evidence to be swayed by simple tribal folklore who's origin stories are being readily admitted to as complete myths now, even by their own experts. One sees an oppressed struggle for ethnic identity narrative played out, the same as we happening in Iraq now. The same story we can see happening with another 10,000 cases of similar localized struggles down thru history, over & over again.
The true history of Israel in my view will always lie with the unsung heros, the moderate folks who got buried back then by the actions of the same apocolyptic tyrannical fundmenatlist morons imposing their religious beliefs & selected ritualized absolutist values on others, as we see today over in Iraq's ISIL. Nothing is clearer than this. |
