As following the same line of thought
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I don't think you pointed out how imaginary leaders are immortal though :) Or how that relates to military strategy.
And I cited clear examples and citations for the questionable veracity of both Jesus and Lao Tzu, I could have done the same for Siddhartha and Zoroaster, you can find this for yourself by looking at their pages on wikipedia. I thought it would have swelled the post too much.
I did forget to add the citation for the bible quote. That's fixed now.
You could easily add Moses if you wanted.
indeed abraham and noah too. the thing is it is too far back in prehistory... The story of moses at least has the possible coincidence of the eruption of Thera to explain the plagues. Noah could be to do with the process of thawing out that saw a sudden big increase in rain over europe that led to the Black Sea overflowing too... I'm not sure if you are familiar with that idea, it's relatively new. It also places Abraham and Noah on the Black Sea Coast where now is Bulgaria and Romania...
but Noah was a Scientist specialising in genetic seed banks ... wasn't he?
Yes I know about the black sea flood. Abd true, the origins of the biblical stories, especially those in Genesis and Exodus could origin from many places in the greater Middle East. Remember that the Bible as we know it was mostly compiled at the time of the exile in Babilon, where the Judean scholars had access to minyard sources.
