1000 years of bitter cultural schism between Eastern and Western catholic traditions all because it's not super clear what the phrase "proceeds from" means

Dejawesp posted:Why didn't more people get into Norse mythology? One of few religions that makes sense. Why does bad things happen to good people? Because the realm of the gods is a giant frat house that's why. Because it's really, really lovely to actually live in that world if you're not a hero - same reason the Egyptian faith completely collapsed to Christianity and Greek only held on while it had the strength of the Roman Empire behind it. "I don't get it, why don't more people want to live under a faith that explicitly only has an afterlife for the rich/says the gods will rape you then punish you for being raped/demands human sacrifice instead of boring-rear end Christianity with its "mercy" and "temperance" and "love"."

Sure it does, following ragnarok and the fimbulwinter, mankind is reborn from two ash trees and the cycle begins anew. It's basically the big crunch theory of theology.

Sorry bud but that's a Hersey, specifically Modolism. But the Trinity is confusing to churchmen too seeing as it's the cause of a few schism itself

It really seems like the church should have dropped the whole concept of the Trinity from the start and saved itself a lot of trouble.

No see, god is love, but you can't love without having a target for that love, therefore god must really be more than one or else who would he love before people?

Who What Now posted:Zeus was never Rain-, Swan-, and Man-Zeus all at the same time while simultaneously being one singular Zeus and three separate Zeus's. No, but there have been a lot of triumvirate gods in other religions like the Morrigan in Celtic myth and a lot of gods in Hinduism. The Trinity is weird and means a a lot of different things to different people, but it's not a unique religious concept.

I feel like a lot of the old religions like the norse faith were way more honest about things than christianity. Viking gods be all "yea the world is poo poo my dude and most likely only the most powerful of you mortals will get a seat at the allfathers table" while christianity is all "i love you and the meek shall inherit the earth byt don't touch your weiner or you'll burn for ever"

You know *this* world. I mean you don't need to do a lot of looking to find that this is not the prized handiwork of a perfect being.

Like a large chunk of "Christian" views, that got added in later. You'd probably have something similar with the old religions if they'd taken the same path as Christianity, with people just adding in their own rules and poo poo.

Puppy Time posted:Other than one guy (whose real sin was disobeying a direct order from God) there's not really an actual doctrinal prohibition against masturbation. Like a large chunk of "Christian" views, that got added in later. His real sin was insurance fraud. I'm... not actually kidding. He married his brother's widow in a levirate marriage. It's like life insurance in a civilization where women's ability to take care of themselves is limited, especially ones where there are picky rules about who one can marry. Normally, the responsibility of her care would fall to a son if possible, but she had none. If she couldn't find a new husband, she could insist on her dead husband's brother, and that's what happened. So he's supposed to take care of her and make her a male heir. And that would mean the male heir would get all the dead brother's stuff instead of him. He decided to bang the lady but pull out so she wouldn't have more kids. It wasn't even jerking off, really. This has been your Sunday Bible lesson for the day.
