Discussion Reading the Bible as a Christian is amazing

[spooky_Heejin]

I have this really cool version of the bible. It's essentially this comic book with lots of pictures. I haven't read it yet but it looks fun to read.

As a messianic Jew, I love the Bible.

It is a beautiful book

You're a messianic jew? I thought you were of a dharmic faith

 

[Myst]

Especially after being mostly exposed to the Quran. It's like only knowing a borat 5 ripoff with Chinese subs

Then discovering real movies

Hell as separation from God, outer darkness. Heaven as unity with God's will and worship as opposed to a whore house

Median Quran verse: and the punishment for bacon eating is striking the shins of the disbeliever. For Allah is mighty, most merciful

Why can't anyone in this thread (including you) be respectful?

You're a messianic jew? I thought you were of a dharmic faith

Why would you think that?

Why would you think that?

South asians aren't typically messianic jews, unless you're joking which you probably are

I meant the dharmic part but yeah your right

The main abrahamic belief for SA is Islam

I was a Satanist not long ago

Lead me to being a transsexual sex worker

Jesus saved me from that

Without Jesus idk if there's a solid logical argument I shouldn't go back and be a trans sexual sex worker

How the fuck one thing goes to another bro, satan: Non stop darkness and pleasure leads to: get fucked in the ass for you

Speaking of this, my current philosophy of destruction has the same problem, it dont prevents from seeking pleasure in all sources as long it does not affects my looksmaxxing program, in this way trannies, guys, girls, anything, it focus on the warrior archetype by Carl Jung, since my shadow self manifets as the warrior for years now, and every attempt of creating something better (Jesus, gym, friends, writing fantansy, psychology course, looksmaxxing), result nothing but destruction and repeated failures, as if the darkness itself is calling me in the end. Basically i got a manifestation of the shadow by seeking meaning through combat(martial arts, army, mercenary work). Should i just focus on my writing dream? Even if, my natural looksmaxxing potential is not that high and maybe even trough surgery, would not change that much.
Basically the brutal reality of life cant be conquered by improving of one self, thanks to the imposed limitations and the excess of comparison with the others, thinking of this: looks thread.
Stats: 5'10.5 potential: 5'11.7
Face: Tanned low MTN potential: White mid-high MTN with green eyes
Body: Lean muscular potential: Zyzz

Lately I've been thinking of reading the Bible. I knew there's one at home, but it turned out it's Pearl Buck The Story Bible. I'll have to get the real one.

I'm reading The Bible rn and it's as boring as I remember, how do you find it enjoyable? I'll admit back then I didn't get past the first 300 pages but it's something a toddler could've written, maybe it's better in the english version idk.

Most of the book is stuff like:

"Isaac, son of Abraham, married Randomwoman1, and they multiplied and had lots of kids. Their kids were Jacob, Randomguy1, Randomguy2 and Randomguy3. Isaac died at 420 years old and had plenty of descendants.

Jacob, son of Isaac, married Randonwoman2, and..."
