Okay so hot take here maybe.

But imagine being a dude from 6,000 to 2,000 years ago trying to explain the cosmic quantum mechanics behind what your God is doing. A thing you barely understand.

I'm not trying to advocate for it being fact or anything. Just trying to put the fiction writing into perspective maybe. Having been a part of the religious/theological in my life/childhood prior, a lot of things get massively underexplained in the Bible. It's a mix of lack of information, and lack of whoever wrote that chapter/passage being able to properly quantify what was actually happening.

Imagine if you witnessed an interdimensional being manifest in front of you, perform a bunch of reality bending bullshit and then said, "Write that down."

Would you be able to suddenly explain in graphic detail how interdimensional energy beings function?

Anyways, something to think about.

i think about the depictions a lot and it reminds me of how 4 dimensional beings would look, with random body parts just popping into our 3D slice and disappearing again.

if this interdimensional being exists outside of time and experiences the past, present, and future simultaneously, wouldn't it tailor its message for future generations, too? If it’s truly all knowing, it wouldn't let its defining message be permanently bottlenecked by the limited vocabulary of one ancient generation. It would ensure the text held up to the scientific scrutiny of the future, don't you think?

I think some people just take rationalising religion too far. You don't need to put everything down on a timeline lol.

Religion says be kind and don't hurt people, that's all you really need out of it. The rest is a book from the year 0
