[MANCID RILKO]

And those who decided wtat was going to be in the bible were the powerful figures of their time

 

[MANCID RILKO]

The Nicea Council

 

[Alticus]

Yeah, but we are still confined as humans to limited understanding. That's why so many things that God does makes no sense to us.

 

[Alticus]

The book of Job is a good example of that.

 

[Alticus]

God is proud of Job for being so faithful and the devil basically said to God that the only reason he is faithful is because you've handed him everything he needs to live a good life. Take all of that away and see how faithful he is.

 

[Alticus]

So God and Satan basically made a bet where God allows Satan to torture job and many other things except he can't kill him. Some the devil makes Job's life a living hell but Job remained faithful but he did ask God why he would allow that. That's where God said that Job you as a human have limited understanding.

It seems like the kind of lore you'd find in a shitty RPG videogame, doesn't it? LOL

We wanted to experiment illusion and separation at one the highest degrees possible and that's what we got

Kind like the rich kid who was born with everything, but he wanted to see how living in the slums was

 

[Alticus]

I understand. I see what you are saying. God wants us to question beliefs from all different religions. It's a good way to learn about the world and God's plans.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

God wants what you want, Alticus

 

[Alticus]

I don't think He wants to be in a hot tub naked with Faith Hill.

[The Question]

If something was powerful enough to create an entire reality, it's incredibly unlikely that it gives a shit what one among 7+ billion talking monkeys eats.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

You see the free will of people like Putin being respected, so it becomes complicated to explain what God really wants

 

[Alticus]

@MANCID RILKO Anyway, we're all stuck on this giant planet for a while. Let's make the best of it because it's out of our control ultimately.

 

[MANCID RILKO]

Exactly

 

[The Question]

Maybe god doesn't want anything. It's not like us, at all.

 

[Alticus]

Hi TQ have you read the bible?

 

[Alticus]

Hi TQ Have you read the bible?

 

[The Question]

Yep. It was hilarious.

 

[Alticus]

Well, okay. I was just wondering.

 

[Alticus]

You're entitled bro.

 

[Alticus]

You're entitled bro. Just like all of us.

 

[The Question]

I know it's brought comfort to a lot of people, and to that extent it's okay. But there's just too much in it that's balls-out goofy for me to put any stock in it. YMMV.

 

[Alticus]

@The Question So even though you don't care for the bible you still believe in God Himself?
