eternal conflict between disliking christianity bc raised christian so wanting to stay away from anything involved with it vs wanting to reread the bible treating it as a fiction novel and examining the characters

#and also wanting to share my existing thoughts but not remembering enough of it to know if its at all accurate kandksndk #origibberish #i just find it really interesting to think abt how like.#the old testament god is a cruel and wrathful god with strict rules on how to live eat wear clothes interact with others #make buildings down to wood types and exact measurements‚ how much of your income to donate‚ on and on and on #but especially he required sacrifices‚ required blood #and then one day. one day he decides to see what its like for himself. he splinters off a piece of himself and crams it into a human husk #and sets it loose‚ lets it finally experience life from the perspective of its subjects‚ of the toys it made to worship it #and makes it experience death. experience hell. severs its connection from the whole for three long days.#and after it comes back. the rules change #to 'promise youll love me forever. promise youll never leave me. whatever youve done whatever youve said i dont care #ive already forgiven you just please please never leave me alone again'#idk
