now, from Wikipedia, about the David Inscriptions, translated with 99.9% accuracy by me "The Attention is especially on the mention of a 'House David' . Should this reading be correct, this would be the first Evidence for the mention of a David. If, by this, the biblical David is meant, should remain unanswered for now. [...] The Inscriptions is historical in no case proof for a Unified Kingdom of Israel and Juda under the bilical King David.

on the Nazareth house, all I could find was a christian order of nuns that take in Orphans, and sometimes abuse them.

you have absolutely no evidence that the bible was ever altered

we have some pre-fourth century pieces of the gospels and they're identical to the gospels we have today

well we have as about as much proof that god exists as we have proof he doesn’t exist. And I think it’s rational to go with something not existing if you don’t have sufficient evidence for it

Thats how it works in the court of laws anyway

the criminal doesn’t have a charge until there is hard evidence of proof .

So what should we believe in?

Humanism

The thing that started the enlightenment period

Being good people without the need for divine intervention

Understanding that we are all humans

We all have feelings

basically christain philsophy without the god part

its amazing

Because people can do good without some figure in the sky telling them so

there's no reason for anyone to buy your worldview if there isn't a God

Religion is probably the reason for 80% of all conflict ex. the crusades, protestant massacars and muslim bombings

not saying that's a good reason to argue God exists

There is

but it just is

there's absolutely none

religon is disease that can do way more harm than good

worthless statement

but I also respect the fact that it will always exist.

meaningless i should say

And that there are good believers

Fuck

why

it will always exist because at a deep level you realize that a moral system cannot exist without religion

unless it's some social contract-tier bullshit

in a meaningless existence there is absolutely no reason why anyone should ascribe to any form of morality no matter how "well" you argue it or how arbitrarily well our society would function under it

they may ascribe to it because of social contract but then they aren't really believing this morality, they're just accepting it for their own practicality

it can though

there can be morals without god

there literally can't

how can you define morals without God?

let's just do a thought experiment. give me something that's in your eyes objectively moral

since from what i can tell, you're arguing that objective morality exists without God

you see, murdering each other will stop our species from reproducing, so those who do it kinda die out in evolution.

oof
