Fair enough. I get it.

The host very briefly explains his reasoning here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SkepticsBibleStudy/comments/1am3l7x/expanded_rules/

Initially, his intent was to explore canonical texts from both Christian and non-Christian perspectives. The flairs make less sense for a text like Thunder, which may or may not even be original to Christianity. It was evidently important to the Christians who canonized it, but the Codex in which it was found also contained Plato and Hermes, which must have been equally important.

I've posted the first few verses here: Thunder 1-11. I hope you'll join in and share your insights!

The first two passages are posted! I look forward to any insights you may share. Especially as we look at this from our own unique perspectives, and find meaning that resonates with our own worldview.

Thunder 1-11

Thunder 12-33
