>>19505661I don't think the demiurge as we imagine him as basically an evil Zeus is real. My understanding is that it was invented to resolve the problem of evil, but it just bypasses it and doesn't really address it.
Imagine I had 3 children. One blind and deaf, one can't read, and one smart kid.
An evil jew kidnaps them and puts them in 3 different jail cells. He's an out of shape retarded discord mod with no weapons or martial arts training, whereas I'm a based /fit/ /k/ommando with power tools. Would you say I'm a good dad if, instead of destroying the jail cell and saving all of my children, I sent tiny encrypted messages by slipping paper clues on how to escape under their doors?
I think the correct view is that he's the personification of an energy, specifically Saturn. I say he's evil, but you need some evil in your life at times. Much like alcohol is clearly a poison, and this is undebatable, but sometimes it helps to lubricate social interactions a little.
You know how people say, "too much of a good thing is bad"? I flip it around. All things are evil and only God is good. This way, you never let your guard down, making getting drunk impossible.
Mathematics and physics are his domain, and I find them beautiful, so I can't hate him.
