God is a Supervillain

  1. So i've been reading the dead sea scrolls lately, does anyone else feel like the old testament could pass for a grade A supervillain monologue?
     
    a few excerpts:
    "Ah, you sinful nation, you people burdened down with iniquity, you offspring of evildoers, you children who deal corruptly! They have abandoned the LORD, they have despised the Holy One of Israel – they are totally estranged! Why would you still be beaten? Why would you continue to rebel? The entire head is sick, and the entire heart faint."
     
    Doesn't that translate almost perfectly into "this city is a cess pool and i am its rightful king. the world will kneel before me, batman. i've beaten you, i've broken you, why do you still fight for gotham?"
     
    I mean literally just read the bible and replace "god" or "the lord" with "Dr. Doom" and you will see what i mean. 
     
    They even compiled a list:

    1.) Sending bears to murder children
    2.) turning this dudes wife into salt
    3.) banning ugly people
    4.) attempting to assassinate moses for no reason and stopping because he put a foreskin on his foot
    5.) lots of genocide
    6.) baby killing
    7.) killing people because they complained
    8.) making a giant death ray to blow up the moon
     
    Ok that last one isn't actually in the bible but you get my point the dude is batshit crazy
     

     
  2. God is cunt.
     
  3.  
    Careful, don't talk about our lord and master like that. He'll turn your face into bees. 
     
  4. Can't tell if serious or sarcastic.
     
  5.  
    And that's just from ONE "buy-bull"...
     
  6. Forgive them Lord they know not what they do 
     
  7. I was joking, but that is something god would do. Remember, this is the dude that made bears eat children because they made fun of a bald guy.
     
  8. Maybe that will teach them lesson
     
  9. Definition: Supervillain - One who is well skilled in destruction as well as building.

    Pretty accurate.

    Man has created God in man's image... sadly.  If you believe there's some dude with a white beard in the sky who say's one piece of rock/land is 'special/sacred' or that there's some master race, or that you need to perform rituals to make him happy, then you've bought into the bullshit manipulations of mankind in his ever-long failed journey of trying to shape God into what he wants him to be.  If you have an image of God, your already headed in the wrong direction. 

     
  11. i feel like if god thought jeruselum was sacred he'd probably do something to keep people from car bombing various parts of the city all the time. god made us in his own image and god is an arrogant asshole, so i mean, what do you expect?
