      Yes it looks like an iron axe, and God has a problem with Iron:
      https://biblehub.com/judges/1-19.htm

      Judges 1:19

      The LORD was with the men of Judah. They took possession of the hill country, but they were unable to drive the people from the plains, because they had chariots fitted with iron.

      So the idea that God is almighty is pretty ridiculous, according to the Bible that is.

        I never actually read much of the thing

        I just assert that the burning bush was absolutely cannabis sativa, despite any solid evidence to the contrary. I don’t care that it’s not native to the region or whatever.

        Anyways, why the fuck was he driving people out of the plains? Homies were just chilling in their iron chariots.

      If we consider the Sistine Chapel’s depiction of the realm of heaven to be divine inspiration, the clothes were added later after some complaints.

      The whole concept of original sin is such that pure beings such as Adam and Eve did not even realize that they were naked until they ate the fruit of carnal knowledge.

      Therefor it is canon that God likes to hang out with his wang out. Freeballin.

    When they’re both Christians, Jesus just picks his favorite. If you lose you know that you’re not jesus’s favorite. Sorry that’s just the way it is. Loser.

      IDK, the christians build gods like a grade schooler:

      My god built the ocean.

      Oh yeah well mine built the earth, and the ocean is on the earth.

      Hey you can’t do that, besides I have a second god and he made the sun.

      I don’t need two gods mine is as powerful as all yours put together and he made the heavens and it has the sun in it.

      THAT’S CHEATING! And I have another god, he made the stars!

      Oh yeah well mine made everything including all the gods and he can count to infinity!

      Oh yeah even the evil gods?

      ……yeah but thats not his fault.

      Is too!

      Is not!

      Is too!

      Is not!

      Is too!, Is too!, Is too!

      Is not time infinitely!

      For his human form, yes, but Holy Trinity-wise, I’m not so sure. Beyond 1v1, archangels tip any scales in JC’s favor.

        Are you also including the entire Hindu pantheon? Because I don’t think the trinity has a chance in hell, archangels notwithstanding.

          The Holy Trinity includes God who is supposedly all powerful. I think He can hold His own 1v1. I’m not saying He would thrash every Hindu god, but it’s not a trouncing of God situation, either. Regardless, when you start adding in the entire kingdom of Heaven, even against the entire pantheon of Hindu gods, I think Heaven wins out.

      What about that one who sleeps for like 32 million years? Seems like he would be pretty easy to off.

    Also relevant, two people of the same religion praying for the same thing. The god fights themselves. Or flips a coin, free will remember.

      It’s not a god per se, rather the animal companion of Ganesh (Elephant god/ god of people, kinda like god Fufluns of Populonia). The mouse is like a ride of the god.

    This just made me think about Shin Megami Tensei. I think Messiah (the closest equivalent to Jesus) would probably win 1 on 1, but the whole Hindu pantheon would probably wear him down eventuality.

    Edit for non-smt fans: SMT is Pokemon for religious and folk mythology. Lol

    Interesting tidbit, the National spelling bee was created by Doug Cornette. The Father of loud mouth, racket waving, heel wrestling manager Jim Cornette

    Which explains why he was such a word Smith and could talk a mile a minute while insulting the crowd

    There’s no fucking way a human zombie pacifist Jew would be able to take on a 2-ton humanoid elephant god with six arms and wields weapons 1 v 1.
