Why has this site seen a huge turn towards Christian shit? It smells waaay off. Like, Russel Brand and all these other influencers turn Christian and this forum becomes overrun with worshippers of the Lord God of Israel via the Jesus psy op.
Why have TPTB decided to shove Christianity down everyones throats and flood boards with Christian bots etc?
Are they trying to strengthen their grip over us spiritually by reinforcing their original deception or what?
It wasn't like this during covid mind you. So yes, kinda.
There is a reason why they called their believers "lambs". They want people to enjoy being sheep.
We're sheep that need a shephard because humans are stupid, even moreso with the knowledge we 'so' desired. Please stop talking about things you don't 'know', MrEx.
This is NOT what sheep refer to in Scripture!
NOT AT ALL
This is only one of the many things that we as English speakers inherently miss out on, that ANE (ancient near east) culture understood as common knowledge.
David was a shepherd; as such, he had intimate knowledge of sheep. Have you even met a shepherd?
I've never met a shepherd in person. Seem like cool people.
There's a lot we can learn about this online, that gives insight into the whole sheep thing in Scripture.
Basically they are very smart; smart enough that they have distinct personalities. They also are extremely picky about who they trust and who they do not. I guess that makes sense when you're basically lunch on a stick for wolves. And while modern shepherds use guns and sheepdogs in combination, and sheepdogs are some of the most dangerous dogs there are for this exact reason, (they're bred to fight to the death and you aren't breaking their skull which is the guaranteed way to definitely stop most dogs that might attack) Biblical shepherds relied on different techniques.
Those techniques were common knowledge at the time, and therefore never explained in Scripture. I don't remember the details off the top of my head well enough to explain it clearly, but I do recall that it adds a lot of richness to the Word.
Personally, the most interaction I've had with a sheep was getting to the point where one would ram into me because it wanted affection. They are surprisingly forceful, and unsurprisingly related to ... Rams! I was shocked by this at first, and frankly so was the shepherd; sheep don't usually take to someone that quickly.
