About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

Priests wonder why people don't read the Bible, and then they keep spoiling the ending smh

I tried reading it a few times before in my life... but it's a really boring thing to read, so was never able to get very far.

[–] Trampampoline@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago

I began reading it, then got to Numbers, and the endless pages of whomst is related to whom ad nauseum drained the life out of me.

"Behold, 300 people!"

reader: okay

"They're not important individually."

reader: so why... ugh

Revelation is the only one I’ve read in its entirety.

All the other books in it are meh. Well except for the one with alien spaceship, that one’s pretty good.

Prose are super flat and stilted, and the dialogue is laughable. 👎

It's okay he comes back!

Dude!

Remember kids, if you don't sin, Jesus died for nothing!

He went through all that trouble. May as well use them.

Or instead: ”No, it says right here in Leviticus 25 that I can keep slaves”

And cut to the missionary doing hard labor

Tbh he probably never read it either. That's why he believes in it still.

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

Nah, the issue is that you, when you read a contradiction, conclude one of the premises must be wrong. He will instead believe his understanding of the premises or his logic is wrong.

This reminds me of the time the Mormons got pissed at me for asking if the Book of Mormon was a divine footnote.

Spoilers for a 2,000 to 15,000 year old collections of manuscripts.

Readers of the Bible are rarely “christian”

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I giggled a bit

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

So he's got it covered, right? We're good. Don't need to worry about it.

Anyway, you wanna do some butt stuff?

Is his death and resurrection actually the climax of the book?

[–] Malgas@beehaw.org 2 points 1 week ago

It's not really a narrative, so doesn't follow a narrative structure. At most you could consider it an anthology, but even then there's stuff in there that doesn't really fit the model. (Though The Iliad also has stuff like the catalogue of ships and an entire book that is just a description of Achilles' shield, so maybe I'm picking nits by the standards of ancient literature…)

That said, death and resurrection is definitely the climax of several individual books of the new testament.
