>>19671594The biggest shoot on organised religion is that the Old Testament wasn't written until after the New Testament had already been canon for a century.
It was originally folklore recorded in Greek by some researchers in Alexandria. They cross-referenced the cards with promoters from Canaan to make sure there were no conflicts and that the storylines add up.
After the NT, rebellious Edomites known as the stable of the Pharisees went into business for themselves, took the match cards from the OT and translated them poorly into Hebrew.
That was later translated into English by the bookers in Protestant Europe. Much later. Centuries later. Hebrew had changed in those centuries, so a good translation of that bad translation was impossible.
One of the funnier angles in the OT is in the Exodus Era, where the territory champion Moses came down from the holy mountain with the two tablet belts holding the Ten Commandments.
When he saw that half the crowd booed him while he was learning a new hold on top of the mountain, he smashed the belts into pieces and took his loyal crowd, arrested the booers, dug a massive pit, filled it with flammable materials, set it on fire, and gave every booer the mother of all bumps into the fire pit.
This is the event that was recorded as the original Holocaust by the Greeks who wrote the OT.
What makes it funny is that apparently "thou shan't kill" immediately ceased applying, the stipulation suddenly disappeared as soon as Moses broke the tablets.
Kinda puts every bit of booking from the whole Era into question.
