How all the religions intervene, how I might be crazy, and should I runaway?
Rule 1: Don't read Atheists
Rule 2: Read the whole thing
This is not bait or troll I am serious
Please read the whole thing. PLEASE! It might start something. MIGHT
So I was thinking today in English class we finished the Odyssey and I later got bored.
So that's where the Christian part kicks in. I was wondering how was Moses described in the Bible then I remember he had a beard and looked old. Doesn't that sound a bit like Poseidon to you? Then it hit me Moses parted the red sea... He controlled water and what could Poseidon do? [spoiler]control water[/spoiler]
Then I told my "friends" at lunch[spoiler]yes I have friends[/spoiler] and they told me "what did you smoke" so I left and went into the library and red the bible [spoiler]yes I have a bible in my backpack[/spoiler] and looked at genesis and I noticed how it mentions how Satan change his appearance/shapeshifted . And who is another person in mythology or religion who can shape shift? [spoiler]Loki from Norse mythology. Loki is also the bad guy in Norse mythology[/spoiler]
Now on Norse mythology there was a goddess named iduun... Iduun sounds a bit like eden like the garden of eden. But for solid evidence iduun also had apples specifically apples that made you god like... Like the tree of knowledge from the bible or the golden apples Hercules had to steal.
Then I noticed that the Bible mentions hades in the first couple of pages in revelations. Hades like Satan.
Then I thought about how the Bible and the Quran are similar and how Greek mythology and roman mythology are similar.
What did God do at a party? Turn water into wine just like Dionysius from Greek mythology
And here I am in my room as a 14 year old male in 9th grade who has a 3.6 GPA and is 9:06 PM failing only biology [spoiler]I don't want to believe evolution[/spoiler] thinking should I run away from home to trace Satan, Jesus, or God. Run away to apprentice Jesus's powers to help others.
Should I run away to apprentice their powers?
Or do you think I am crazy?

1 ReplyEdited by Yosh: 2/25/2016 3:30:57 AMIs your only based for Norse mythology avengers? Loki wasn't THE "bad guy" of Norse mythology. Many demons were more evil. Sure he caused a lot of trouble and his children were a little "ruff" (bum bum dish I hope someone got that joke ;~;) but he wasn't THE bad guy. Edit: biology was hard as shit and a useless knowledge that few people will even need in the future. I sucked at it too your not the only one ;~;

[quote]Then I noticed that the Bible mentions hades in the first couple of pages in revelations. Hades like Satan.[/quote] First of all, when the bible mentions hades, it refers to the realm of hades, or hell, as we call it. Second, hades is the king of hell, and not really that much worse than any of the other gods. Satan is pure evil and will himself become a prisoner in hell in the end. [quote]Then I thought about how the Bible and the Quran are similar[/quote]Because the Quran is basically the 'newer testament'. [quote]and how Greek mythology and roman mythology are similar.[/quote] Because they're the same thing in different languages. [quote]What did God do at a party? Turn water into wine just like Dionysius from Greek mythology[/quote] Jesus did it as a party trick. Dionysus did it to get wasted. [quote]Any here I am in my room as a 14 year old male in 9th grade[/quote] I felt the same way at your age. [quote]who has a 3.6 GPA and is 9:06 PM failing only biology [spoiler]I don't want to believe evolution[/spoiler][/quote] I don't blame you. Ignorance is bliss. 99% chose the matrix over Zion. [quote]thinking should I run away from home to trace Satan, Jesus, or God. Run away to apprentice Jesus's powers to help others.[/quote] This is a bad idea. [quote]Should I run away to apprentice their powers?[/quote] Not under any circumstances. [quote]Or do you think I am crazy?[/quote] Undoubtedly. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just trying to get you to think critically.

7 RepliesEdited by TechnoKat: 2/14/2016 4:25:26 AMPlease continue failing biology, if our luck holds up, you not studying will lead to you not understanding how reproduction works and the world will be a better place for the rest of us. That being said, all those similarities your noting exist because there's so many things that are parallel* in every religion. [spoiler]* Christianity actually just outright copies quite a few things from Egyptian, Wiccan and other such mythologies. Remember children, today's religion is tomorrow's mythology.[/spoiler]

2 RepliesWell seeing how every religion steals aspects from other stories or religion, it's not to far fetched to assume the original writer of the bible was inspired by Greek myth when writing it.

26 RepliesYou're crazy because a) Moses couldn't control water, and b) you don't accept evolution (I say accept not believe because evolution is fact).
-
A bit to crazy, I really like your theory. Don't run away.
-
4 RepliesI'm atheist btw but I have always been fascinated by the bible and have read it all the way through. I can see where your theory is coming from and it is very credible but I feel you're over reacting when you say to run away, if you want to spread the wisdom of jesus (I'm still atheist btw) then you should do it in your own way, running away and following in Jesus's path is not the right thing to do. You must find your own path and leave your own personal mark on the world, don't strive to be like Jesus. Strive to be the next Jesus.[spoiler]ad victoriam [/spoiler]

Coincidence? I think not. [spoiler]But seriously, turn religious if you wish or be an atheist, just be yourself.[/spoiler] -
God isn't real.

1 ReplyA) That does seem like a cool little coincidence B) Saying you don't want to believe evolution is ignorant. You should learn both sides of the argument and decide for yourself C) Don't run away because of a vague coincidence you thought of in English class. That's even more ignorant

Sounds like you're actually running away from your problems, OP.

Edited by Spyro: 2/11/2016 3:32:18 AMChances are, all religions are related in one way or another. The ancient empires and civilizations weren't in complete isolation. They traded and interacted with each other. After this happened over long periods of time, elements of other religions mixed with the origins of Christianity. It's in human nature to believe in a higher power like a God. When we didn't understand anything, we would use our imagination to fill in that gap of the unknown. It's more like walking in the dark and imagining a figure in the distance when we hear something, even though there is nothing there. Religion is something we needed for our fear of the unknown during ancient times. Now we are moving away from that, because we understand our planet and the universe enough to realize that we don't need a god or gods to fill in the unknown. Point is, we worked together to find something that sounds like it makes sense and we made the basis of religion to fill in the gap of the unknown. The high God of gods, the gods of each element of life, the prophet (Muhammad, Hercules, Jesus, etc), and so forth. We even modified these elements to help make each religion more distinct from others. Like having one God for all elements. If you look back at the time before civilizations interacted. You will see very different religions, each with a completely different basis. Look at the Iroquois for example. Eventually, we worked together and made the scaffolding for religion.

I'm not going to call you crazy, and I'm not going to say you're sane, but running away is not the answer. Stay home while you can, you'll miss it when you're older. Take that from a 34 year old man who wishes he could still go home to his parents.

20 Replies[quote]thinking should I run away from home to trace Satan, Jesus, or God. Run away to apprentice Jesus's powers to help others.[/quote]You see...here's where you jumped the fence. Yes, there are a lot of connections and various over-lappings between the numerous religions that have risen and fallen over time, but where the bloody hell did this part come from?
