Noah (our hero) performs a sacrifice after the flood
Copilot
After the flood, Noah performed a sacrifice as a gesture of thanksgiving and dedication to God. In Genesis 8:20, it is described that Noah built an altar and offered burnt offerings of clean animals and birds. This act was not a payment for sin but rather a symbolic expression of contrition, gratitude, and obedience12. God was pleased with the sacrifice and made a covenant with Noah, promising never to destroy the earth by flood again34. This event is often referred to as the Noahic Covenant3.
So it's like.. what the fuck is this.. Yahweh is doing like I don't know.. those gods of the devil worshippers where you gotta sacrifice something for it, right.. like Moloch. lol. But he's doing burnt offerings of clean animals and birds. Hey, that's nice, taking some of those creatures, obviously from the fucking ark and killing them for Yahweh. Never heard of Yahweh being into these sacrifices things like the devil worshippers.
Your changing the topic because you were called out for being wrong. I'm a Buddhist, I think all gods are bastards and choose to not worship any of them, the Bible's ripoff of Sumer's Enlil included.
Many religious have sacred animals, the Romans had sacred geese, Hindus have cows, etc. I could do more research, but you get the point.
The Bible is a lot of things, and some part even share commonality with other Middle Eastern mythology, but what it is not, is a "ripoff".
Enjoy your Buddhism, because however far you are down that path, you have some serious attachment issues showing up in your anger here. You're as far away from Nirvana as a fat guy at a buffet is from fitness.
Sacred animals are not gods. Again, have knowledge before you speak. As far as my anger, excuse me if i didn't take your opinion over my teachers' and my own. Amituofo.
If you trample a American flag, or slaughter a sacred cow, what does that act represent? Same with sacrificing a bull, which the Israealites did, and a bull was the sacred animal of moloch. He's even depicted as a bull headed god.
Have knowledge before you speak.
Interesting to see you pretend to have some sort of zen calm right now, but it's to late here, I saw through you on this topic like a window pane.
Follow your teacher, please, yes. Buddha came to at least a partial truth about suffering and attachment.
You're still changing the goal posts. You said gods were depicted as animals. The only source of moloch as a bull is a roval warring tribe, one of the least historically valuable testimonies in that they have great reason to lie and distort.
