Q&@
BELIEVE
THAT THE CREATOR GOD CHUKWU
INITIALLY WANTED TO MAKE PEOPLE IMMORTAL?
He sent a dog to tell humans that when someone dies, they should sprinkle ashes on the corpse,
and the body will come back to life! Unfortunately, the dog was tired and he dallied on the way...
The impatient Chukwu then sent a sheep, telling her to make haste with this important message!
Alas, when the breathless sheep reached her destination, she garbled the instructions, and told the humans
to bury their dead, thus making death permanent?! This is why to this very day we humans must die! If only
Chukwu had a Twitter account instead of relying on laggard dogs & dim-witted sheep to deliver his messages!
In ancient agricultural societies many religions displayed surprisingly little interest in metaphysical questions
& the afterlife? Instead they focused on the very mundane issue of increasing agricultural output! Thus the
"Old Testament God" NEVERTHELESS promises ant rewards or punishment after death? "He" instead tells
to the people of Israel that 'IF YOU REALLY CAREFULLY OBSERVE THE COMMANDS THAT I'M GIVING YOU
[...] THEN I WILL SEND RAIN ON THE LAND IN ITS SEASON [...] AND YOU'LL GATHER GRAIN, WINE AND
OIL! I WILL PROVIDE GRASS IN THE FIELDS FOR YOUR LIVESTOCK, AND YOU'LL EAT AND BE SATISFIED.
BE CAREFUL! OTHERWISE, YOUR HEARTS WILL DECEIVE YOU AND YOU WILL TURN AWAY TO SERVE OTHER
GODS AND WORSHIP THEM. THE WRATH OF GOD WILL BURN AGAINST YOU SO THAT HE WILL RESTRAIN
THE HEAVENS AND IT WON'T RAIN. THE GROUND WON'T YIELD ITS PRODUCE AND YOU'LL BE SWIFTLY
DESTROYED FROM THE GOOD LAND THAT THE LORD
IS ABOUT TO GIVE YOU' {DEUT 11:13-17}.
Scientists today can do
much better than "thàt
Old Testament
G d"?
