This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Fake, anon didn't even think of this themselves. The idea of divine power being stored in the semen has existed in various primitive cultures for thousands of years. They usually use it as an excuse to rape young boys.

Honestly, since OP seems to be focused on exchange of semen between consenting adults, it's much better. and definitely gay.

Tbh right, in the last year or two I've come to accept that there is an absolute religious continuity from ancient paganism to the newest mainstream ones (e.gChristianity and islam). It might be a vague connection at times but you can see pretty clearly how one story or one ritual became different as a culture moved into a new age or a new area.

  • The words "Zeus," and Deus and Jupiter all come from the same root word.

  • Every religion has a flood story

  • Religious texts reflect on the old faiths that their founders were raised in, or those worshipped by them around them

Anyway why am I saying all this? Well, I don't know if God would actually go "You need to make a new religion. It tends to be "you need to fix the current religion, take control of it.

EDIT: I should have read ahead to see just how silly this greentext actually is before I engaged with it as a serious idea, lol.

Yea, the flood story here is being flooded with semen

[–] drosophila@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 16 hours ago

There is a pretty clear influence from ancient Greek and Roman religion on Abrahamic religions (especially neo-platonism), but you don't even have to go that obscure to make the argument you're making.

They descend directly from the ancient Babylonian religion, which was polytheistic. It was converted from a polytheistic to a monotheistic religion first by moving to monolatry (the other gods are real, but its only valid to worship one of them), by conflating various gods with each other (saying that they are simply different names for the same god), and finally by creating a false history where the favored god was always the only one and the other ones were always considered false/idolatrous/demonic.

The deus thing - isn't that a product of etymology?

As for the flood - possibly it's featured in many religions because it was a real event

And the difference between polytheistic religions and Christianity is that instead of having a god of archery and a god of prostitutes, Christianity has a patron saint of archery and a patron saint of prostitutes. Totally different!

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 3 points 17 hours ago

Depends how Roman catholic you are

[–] eRac@lemmings.world 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

One branch has patron saints. Most others have one dude be the god of 'good' and one dude the god of 'bad'.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

Satan isn't a god, and God is in fact the god of good and bad - of everything

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 4 points 20 hours ago

The continuity between Roman/Latin paganism and Christianity in special is rather evident for me: the fate of the dead, the idea of sacrifice, the mystery cults and all that "your god is to the East!"...

This is the future that liberals want.

Fake: anon has enough charisma to start a cult
Gay: c'mon sib it's literally in the post itself

[–] Robomekk@lemmy.ca 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Finding one guy’s dick to suck hardly qualifies as starting a cult.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 3 points 17 hours ago

It'd be different if the leader was getting his dick sucked.

We don't speak broccoli hair here.

[–] BaraCoded@literature.cafe 9 points 22 hours ago

Sounds legit.

Fake: do I really have to say why? Gay: do I really have to say why?

Islam on the night of the Zutt be like:

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 2 points 17 hours ago

I'm pretty sure there was no dick sucking in that.
