I ain’t ask to be here, but you a damned fool if you think imma just roll over and give the fuck up! Hell naw. My ass taking some of y’all fuckers with me.
The God of the Old Testament is an absolute monster, so I automatically like the guy who opposed him more.
I really like the Gnostic belief that this God is the “demiurge”… a lesser, malevolent, ignorant and false god who created the material world as a flawed imitation of the divine realm. He traps human souls in matter, while the true, transcendent God remains distant and unknowable. Some gnostics see the serpent as the good guy for encouraging Adam and Eve to eat the fruit of knowledge and free humanity from the ignorance of Yaldabaoth, the blind fool god, very much like Morpheus in The Matrix (which adapts all kinds of ideas from Gnosticism).
In some manga the bad guys announce they will annihilate humanity, and they will start by killing 1000 people every day(!!!). At that rate, it would take them 22000 years to kill 8billion
It would not even be possible to annihilate humanity if you kill a 1000 people a day.
About 368000 people are born daily.
About 150000 die daily.
Which means the bad guys would have to kill about 219000 people per day to annihilate humanity in 22000 years
And that’s not even getting into the fact the global population has been misrepresented by hundreds of millions. Apparently the way we account for the global population leaves us miscounting rural populations by a factor of 50-80%.
Well, we don't put them in the house at first. Or if we do, we chain them in a dark basement with a lock on the door and tell visitors they can't go there.
