Religious rants

It's not the homosexuality. The risk is the same if he was sleeping with men or women. The difference is personal lifestyle choices and promiscuity.

I have a theory that God doesnt live or see time as we do. I find the concept fascinating, ofc i mean God knows how everything will end. But what if its like a never ending loop for him, where he sees not only the end but the beginning so on and so forth. Like everything is one big picture from beginning to end. The bible is inspired by God and written by the people he chose. Yet the bible isnt in chronological order. Everything is jamed together, i noticed this while reading i believe 2nd kings. It spoke about nebuchadnezzar but then spoke about what happened after nebuchadnezzar. Yet in daniel it speaks specifically talks about nebuchadnezzar and his evil doings. Also Adam was alive even after the bible stopped speaking about him. Adam live a really long life but it speaks of him dying in genesis. Yet he didnt die and then the next story happened, it finished off the story of adam in genesis yet he was alive during the time of the next stroy just they were done talking about him. Im not saying the bible lied about his death i mean he lived his life during the next parts of the bible and then died somewhere after 900 years. So there wasnt just 900 years of nothing. So he died somewhere between creation and Noah and had children and those children branched out and did things. Everything is like a linear story but told from various time periods. The more you read the bible the more you can start to kind of piece together its complexity.

I've wondered this about the Bible... Why is inbreeding a sin now, but not in the beginning and how didn't it mess everything up? Like now, it totally wrecks havock in just a generation or two and makes it impossible to keep, for lack of better words, breeding. Humanity would cease to be if we did that now and yet, Adam's children would've had no other option. Was their genetics different? I know there's no biblical answer, but it makes one wonder and I'd like to hear an answer from a believer on how they think it could logically happen? There's no evidence to show people lives for almost a millennia, either. I mean, the oldest according to the Bible was Methuselah at 969 years and if the generations before the flood lived into their hundreds, why don't we find any physical evidence of that? There htas to be MANY who lived hundreds of years, I'd think.Two separate questions, I know. Did the flood somehow wipe them and their bodies out of existence? Shoot, even Noah and his fan had to inbreed in order to repopulate the earth, right?

So basically my understanding of it, and dont take my word for it since this isnt officially from the bible but after extensive research on the bible and the earlier parts. Prior to Noah it was probably a common thing. Seeing as there would be no other explanation besides another race of being existing alongside them. There are two things that come into play here that could lead to this. The sons of God sleeping with the sons of man. Prior to Noah, God saw the angels sleep with human women giving birth to all sorts of monstrosities. That and inbreeding caused the bloodline to become damaged and the like. So he decided to start all over with Noah, his children, their wives, and their servants. My thinking is the reason why humans cannot live as long as the biblically depicted people is because of inbreeding. So Adam and all these people if you read the bible all shortened their lifespans as time went on. So adam at 900 and people subsequently after go from that to 800, 700, 600 so on and so forth. This inpurity, because we were made in God's image which leads me to believe we no longer look the way God had intended us to. There was probably the perfect human being (in looks and health) being adam and then from there it goes downhill. As for incest within the bible and such God specifically bans us from sleeping with mother, father, brother and sister but not cousin. Which would in a way stop genetic defects from being really bad, but not so much stopping it completely. These people had multiple children. King solomon alone had hundreds of wives. Which outs that into perspective they have upwards of 10 children in those times. You can see this prevalent in chronicles which go in order showing the sons from adam and so forth. They dont mention the women as much so we have no idea how many of them were around.

There are numerous examples of incest in the Bible. The most commonly thought-of examples are the sons/daughters of Adam and Eve (Genesis 4), Abraham marrying his half-sister Sarah (Genesis 20:12), Lot and his daughters (Genesis 19), Moses’ father Amram who married his aunt Jochebed (Exodus 6:20), and David’s son Amnon with his half-sister Tamar (2 Samuel 13). It is important to note, however, that in two of the above instances (Tamar and Lot), one of the parties involved was an unwilling participant in the incest better described as rape in those cases. It is important to distinguish between incestuous relationships prior to God commanding against them (Leviticus 18:6–18) and incest that occurred after God’s commands had been revealed. Until God commanded against it, it was not incest. It was just marrying a close relative. It is undeniable that God allowed “incest” in the early centuries of humanity. Since Adam and Eve were the only two human beings on earth, their sons and daughters had no choice but to marry and reproduce with their siblings and close relatives. 

The thing is we find incest morally wrong now, but why? Is it because we find it disgusting? But why do we find it disgusting? I feel like its just a symptom of God's commandment, i think our morals were influenced because of that. You could say "i wouldnt wanna sleep with my relative regardless of what God said" but if society allowed it would you even know the difference? Because its not socially acceptable, that sort of guides your mind into thinking yeah thats a bad thing to do. Not saying i condone it or anything, i just think we have to put into perspective you see it as God allowing something disgusting to occur but if it was ok and there were no drawbacks i honestly think it wouldnt have been considered disgusting. Remember in greek culture it was the norm for little boys to sleep with older men in exchange for wisdom and mentorship but today thats considered manipulation and child abuse. Im just trying to put into perspective what we think is wrong now may not have been wrong then. But because God put that into our minds and because our society continued following that command we see it as wrong.

Im giving God the benefit of the doubt because it is in my opinion God has never allowed sin to occur, i mean after all he determines what a sin is. It doesnt become a sin until he tells us not to do it. Therefore, everything is ok up until the point he says it isnt. This is why i dont like when people say the bible is contradictory. Like why does God allow this to happen, why do priests rape children, why are some Christians so hateful despite the religion being about love. None of it is the fault of God, he is the perfect entity. We are the ones with imperfections. He literally has to tell us what to do so we dont destroy ourselves. If we lived in a spciety where child abuse was ok then kids would grow up traumatized and messed up and that would lead to bad things happening. If we grew up in a world where gay sex was acceptable it would affect population growth and lead to diseases. If we allowed killing and stealing how many people would steal from one another and get killed as a result or how many mass murders would go around slaughtering each other. Society as we know it only can function because of God's laws
