Screw that. The Vikings heaven sounds much better.
So you're in the "72 virgins"-type camp.
DBT?
72 White Raisins is Muslim, not Viking.
Philosophically, that is a distinction without a difference. Both are appeals to the temporal interests of Man.
They are not appeals to perfection. God is perfection, the goal of our highest attainment. Last time I checked, getting hammered on Saturday night and screwing whores wasn't one of our higher attainments. An attainment, surely, but not one aimed at perfection. In this sense, the Vikings make more sense than the Moslems. The Vikings didn't claim there to be any perfection in a god, just powerful but flawed individuals.


The god of the Bible is far from perfect. To quote Dawkins:

"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all of fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."


Thats just like your opinion man.


I am MAGA.
