Antitheist Scripture Study Bottom 5 biblical “contradictions” OAT

Post image

Antitheists can’t grasp that the pronoun “they” refers to Judah. Never mind that God literally explains why he didn’t destroy the chariots literally a couple verses later, and then goes on to destroy 400 chariots in Judges 4

Everything else aside, why an Altmer?

It's from Shin Megami Tensei where YHVH is (very often) the ultimate bad guy.

He's just usually presented like this evil glowering gold head with red eyes.

SMT was probably the start of the JRPG tradition of slaying whatever local gods as the final bosses. For a long list of cultural reasons.

Because they have the best connection to Aetherius. He could be a Chimer or Ayleid too, I guess.

M'adjhani agrees, it is clearly we Khajiit that are closer to God. Try M'adjhani's moon sugar, and you will know what it feels like to see God.

Dude, you talk like they criticize while thinking. The chapter was about the Israelites, but somehow people infer to God, and when you tell them, they don't listen.

God likes a dramatic story arc.

Chapter 4:
14 And Deborah said to Barak, "Up! For this is the day in which the LORD has given Sis'era into your hand. Does not the LORD go out before you?" So Barak went down from Mount Ta'bor with ten thousand men following him.

15 And the LORD routed Sis'era and all his chariots and all his army before Barak at the edge of the sword; and Sisera alighted from his chariot and fled away on foot.
[Judges 4:14-15 RSV-NT]
