@JordisGusting I dont think you understand the Christian view of sin.
But to be fair very few Christians understand it today either so I dont really blame you.
@seethroughit2@iamacat9000 You read the bible and history as a modern materialist, and you dont even know it.
You think it is completly irrelevant how Christians have traditonally understood God and creation etc.
And the only true view is the view you hold.
The word "Lord" comes to us from the Anglo-Saxon "Hlaford", comprised of "hlaf" (loaf) and "weard" (warden or guardian). So the Lord is literally the Bread-Warden or Giver of Bread.
@ZZZELCH84 I see, well its not like the pattern you have come across is without some merrit.
The Isralites bear the mark of cain after all...
But reducing God to mere jew is not Christian, but anti-christian.
God became man, man did not become God.
@DionysianAgent Pagans are like protestants in thought. To thinking you can re-construct a religion that has been abandoned.
Only in our materialist world would ever any person think such stuff to be possible.
