(6,670 posts)If there's any, you would think there were a whole shitload of them, the folks Yahweh is talking about in the Old Testament when he talks about "we" creating the earth and Adam...
not to mention all those folks that Adam's ancestors married...
and the OTHER ones, all through that book, that the Jews keep getting whomped for worshipping in order to be friendly with their neighbors, and all the ones who work for the dark side in various capacities
not to mention the big crew of them in Africa, and in South America they came and went as fast as human cultures did. And that bunch of loonies that hung around ancient Greece...
I think the problems with the world all have the same cause. There are far too many magical sky beings, they being immortal and all, we ignore the vast majority of them and picked a few real bastards to worship, it's crowded up there and they're all bored - hell, the earth-based ones are pretty pissed - and they're ALL just fucking with us while not fighting with each other. That's as good as any OTHER sky being hypothesis, as far as I can tell, and accounts for more of the data.
