Re: Psalms

Dear Logo73

You have it all wrong. Akhenaten was born in c1300 BC (18th Dynastical Pharaonic chronology), the Psalms were written down by David from ten ancient psalmists between (and including) Adam and Moses.

Moses was born in 1619 BC (Usshers Chronology), Adam much earlier.

It is clear from this that, in fact, Akhenaten stole his poem to Aten from Moses and the Israelites.

So in answer to your original question, yes I like your signature.

Re: Psalms

Psalm 104:
thou art clothed with honor and majesty:
who covers thyself with light as with a garment: who
stretches out the heavens like a curtain.

Sun hynm to Aton:
Thou appearest beautifully on the horizon of heaven,
Thou living Aton, the beginning of life!



Psalm 104:
The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together,
and lay them down in their dens. Man goeth forth unto
his work and to his labor until the evening. They give
drink to every beast of the field.... He watereth the
hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the
fruit of thy works.

Sun hymn to Aton:
At daybreak, when thou arisest on the horizon,
when thou shinest as the Aton byday,... their
arms are raised in praise at they appearance. All
the world, they do their work. All beasts are
content with their pasturage; trees and plants are
flourishing.



Psalm 104:
Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all
the beasts of the forest do creep forth. The young lions
roar after their prey and seek their meat from God.

Sun hynm to Aton:
Every lion is come forth from his den; All
creeping things, they sting. Darkness is a shroud,
and the earth is in stillness, for he who made them
rests in his horizon.

Wow, they're completely different. Amazing!

Re: Psalms

No, I just want you not to take you Bible as literal as you're doing.

Do you take the owner's manual for your car literally? When the manual specifies what type of motor oil to use, do you take it literally, or do you think that each motorist is free to "interpret" that part for himself and decide to use motor oil, linseed oil, or olive oil, on the theory that a just and merciful car company will honor the warranty no matter what? Now apply the same reasoning to the Holy King James Bible, the owner's manual for your soul.

I also like your Psalms (mainly 104) ...

That is a reasonable request if it was God making it.

Who are you? As far as I can tell, just some fluffy bunny feel gooder who is destined for an eternity of torture in Hell who is trying to drag decent, caring and honest people with them. Not very nice.
Show me where God say to not take the Bible literally and that it is ok to skip parts.

Re: Psalms

So I looked up this so-called "sun hymn to Aton (sic)" and found a picture of this:



Do you honestly think that you could translate that to Psalms 104? Seriously?

Re: Psalms

Because it damages the Christian, his environment, his life and hurts others by spreading of intolerance. In principle, the Bible is not intolerant, when you don't take it literally.

So where then are we to get information about God and Jesus?

Re: Psalms

So, you don't like your Bible's Psalms?

We love our Bible's psalms. Can you not read? Look, I know you're looking for controversy and an argument on this amazing issue you think you've discovered that nobody has ever brought forwards or by now we'd all have converted to atheism but you're not being very original; you're being very very boring.

Re: Psalms

Yeah, obviously... are you done now?

So, you don't like your Bible's Psalms?

[Redeemed Papist]

Re: Psalms

It's not a non-issue. Your God obviously broke his own laws (if he really inspired the writing of the Bible). Do not take other people's things!

Oh great! He watched Zeitgeist.

So the bit about it being a lame gotcha was a lie.

Or do you have a spectacularly original take on this non-issue?

Re: Psalms

Of course we like it. We like the whole Bible. It seemed like a pointless question and I wondered if we were going to be treated to some sort of amazing insight into your thoughts on something or other at any moment after saying, "Yes!"

So, I'll bite.

Yes, yes I like psalm 104 - especially the bit about leviathan.
