AlienCG's Bible Study
I'm an atheist reading the Bible and taking notes. I also write about other issues relating to religion. I am NOT an anti-theist. (He/Him)

- I'd post a picture of @maklelan.bsky.social's book, The Bible Says So, but it's on Kindle, so I don't have a picture of it. I am into the second chapter and it's excellent.

- 2 Samuel Chapter 4 In which I make reference to Murder, She Wrote This chapter is quite short and it could be even shorter since it has details that seem unnecessary. At least that's what I would say had I not been using an annotated Bible. There is an aside in this chapter that talks about…

- 2 Samuel Chapter 3 It's like Days Of Our Lives Unlike the previous chapter, we learn a lot in this one. First, David has five wives (so far) and has at least one son with each. We know how highly this book thinks of daughters, so if had any, we wouldn't know about them. I just wonder when David…
- 2 Samuel Chapter 2 War. What is it good for? David is told by God to go to Hebron, so he loaded up the truck and he moved to…oh, sorry, wrong story. David, his two wives and all of his men along with their households settled in Hebron. The people of Judah came to greet him and, as a housewarming…

- I'm writing about 2 Samuel 2 while listening to "Maggot Brain" by Funkadelic. That is all.
- 2 Samuel Chapter 1 Is it good to be the king? I'm back to begin the most ill-titled book in Bible. Samuel died before the end of book one and only made an Obi-Wan- style appearance one more time. I prefer, though, to think of it more like a Zaphod Beeblebrox IV style appearance. If you've read…
- Jacob and Esau: The Reboot I've been a bit serious for good reason, so here's more the writing project I did back in 2018 to add a bit of levity to *waves hands wildly around*. Isaac (who wasn't killed by his father because Bob was "just joking") and Rebekah, his wife, conceived twins…sort of…

- The Poison of Hate Apologies for not getting back to the Bible Study portion of this blog, I've been lamenting the culture of hate that seems to be infiltrating the world around me. It's ugly and if I had to say that I hate anything, that is what I hate. I am not a hateful person. There's a quote…
- Which Ten Commandments? Exodus 20? Exodus 34? Deuteronomy 5? Which version? Protestant? Catholic? Jewish? From which Bible? KJV? NIV? ESV? NRSV?
- Christian pseudohistorian Tim Barton (son of David Barton) says Ten Commandments posters should go up in classrooms because we "arrest students that break" them. This will be a shock to anyone who knows all the Commandments. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/tim-barton...

Apologies for my absence these past couple weeks, but in the light of *waves hands around at everything* I needed a break and I figured since I finished up 1 Samuel, that would be a good break point.

- Is It Really “Faith”? Years ago, I watched a very enlightening YouTube video from an Orthodox Catholic Bishop (I can't recall which exact sect or his name). He was speaking about the fundamentalists who push creationism and at the time, the early seeds of Christian nationalism. He said that these…
- If you wanted to, you could assume prophecy in any book if you just read it "the right way". Imagine people 1000 years from now finding the Lord Of The Rings and creating a prophetic cult around it.

- I'll get back to writing this weekend. Right now, I'm focusing on me and catching up on some television before my Disney+ subscription lapses for now. I watched Deadpool and Wolverine, and am currently finishing season 1 of Andor. I'll sign up for a month after season 2 has concluded.
