    I paid attention to the stories.

    The story of Job in particular drove me up a wall.

    God took everything Job loved to win a bet he already knew the outcome of. A bet he made with Lucifer.

    Basically Lucifer tricked god into torturing an innocent man and god fell for it like a fuckin chump.

    He either knows all and willingly tortured Job to prove a point to someone he shouldn’t give a single thought toward or he got duped which shows he’s either not all knowing or just a dumbass.

      I always assumed the story of Job was total BS. Job was basically a sock puppet used to gaslight the fuck out of people that would otherwise question god’s motives.

      The entire point is “you can’t understand”. which is one of the answers given by narcissists.

      another one that annoys me is the garden of eden… the apple. you know. it doesn’t take a genius to see that, two quite literally ignorant humans - they had no conception of good and evil, purportedly- of course going to eat the fucking fruit.

        But of course the only fitting punishment for eating a bad piece of fruit is eternal parental abandonment. And childbirth that fucking kills women, cuz she did it first, so all shes deserve it more.
