Oh, boy, things really are getting strange.
God had a wife, Asherah, whom the Book of Kings suggests was worshiped alongside Yahweh in his temple in Israel, according to an Oxford scholar" - - -"

Congratulations on a readable post title, though you could have dropped the two comma's. Your post highlights one of the bases of the hypothesis that the whole story is a fairy tale or, at least, omits a LOT of details. When schitt is made up, a lot of details are usually left out. Not true. When sh.it is made up people are inclined to “overcompensate” by creating more details than necessary. 😉

I'm not talking about what some people call miracles. I'm talking about parting the sea, water to wine, soddom and ghemorrah, Moses staff turning into a serpent, burning bush not consumed, etc.... We get none of that. How 'bout if someone is prayed for who has cancer and is blind and bald and bed ridden from it and the very next day is walking around healed and seeing? How about the children in the cancer ward who die anyway? Prayer has been proven not to work by the way. It does not help when you have people actively hiding natural cures for diseases so they can make money off of the treatment Natural Cures would not fall under Miracles just Nature. Miracles are all around us if you can open your eyes enough to see them. Most people have been blinded to them for generations. If miracles are all around us in the form of mundane events, the word 'miracle' has no real signifcance. A mother may consider it a miracle her son passed his math exam. It was a miracle the drunk got across the road without being killed, it's a miracle the local cricket team won against the odds....

Most people have been blinded to them for generations. People set the "miracle bar" at different levels. This "face of Jesus" slice of toast is deemed a miracle by some: ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/IxS4OJZ.png) But it would need to look more like the image below to even be coming close to what others might be considering as a miracle: ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/tb6ClHl.png) People seem to ascribe both low probability and "impossible" events as miracles. Low probability events are just that. If an "impossible" event happens then it was never actually impossible in the first place - just need to figure out and understand why it happened. Miracles are just another form of superstition.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?
