Abrahamic* to be precise. They’re all the same asshole, just different names. (And, even that was listed from earlier cultures’ traditions, FFS. Lazy, unoriginal, and fucking stupid? That tracks for religion all around, really.)

I love how the gen 1 creation story basically reads like schoolboys one upping their friends about how great their dad is.
“Yeah. Well, my god made the world and everything in it! and he took a nap on. The seventh day!!!”

Swap out “schoolboys” with “old fear-mongering pervs”, and you’re even closer to the historical truth.
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 6 months ago
well, they were old fearmongering pervs, no doubt.
I was just referring to the simple fact that the creation account was a cloned copy of all the others… just wit that squeaky “Yeah well my dad’s twice the fireman your dad is” vibe. Sad they used their supposed power of their god to justify rampant invasions and genocide. (which they failed at the genocide because they were too busy raping…)

Fun fact, there’s a metaphorical dick-measuring contest in the bible, 1 Kings 18, 21 onwards (had to google it). Basically, Elijah wanted to prove GAHD was greater than Baal. Long story short, GAHD proved HE could light firewood that’s been dumped with water 4 times, while Baal was busy ignoring his followers from dawn to midday.

I’m with the other person… if it was intelligent design… it was some world creation game and we’re in a speed run save.
