🇺🇸 5 questions from readers around spiritual things.
Incomplete Bible? How did the idea of God arise? What was Sitchin's mistake? Is the biblical God special? Did Jesus Exist?
Disclaimer: Fred Zacaria writes and speaks on various topics classified as 3F: "fancy/fantasy/fiction" in the fields: science, politics, religion, etc. Any similarity to persons or circumstances is purely coincidental.
1- Why is the Bible in its recent editions said to be incomplete?
The Bible in ALL its editions from birth is incomplete (it is only partially inspired), God does not speak exclusively through "a book" that can easily be interpolated by lobbies of prejudiced people, but speaks directly to the hearts of every single human being (Jn 14:26). See: articles on Substack, audio on Spreaker, vids on YouTube.
2- The notion or idea of God, how did it come about?
Australopithecus Africanus five million years ago, after eating the Psilocybin which strengthened his intellect, a process of tens of centuries (it could have been Ursus Lavator who ate it, but we were there by coincidence). With the fortified intellect, looking at nature and marveling he rightly arrived - by syllogism - that if there was a creation there must necessarily be a Creator. Listen to my podcast on Spreaker titled Australopithecus Africanus.
3- Who is Zecharia Sitchin and what is his work on ancient aliens and Sumerian theology?
He was an excellent Azerbaijani researcher of armenian origins (or at least crypto-armenian origins) ... unfortunately he died a dozen of years ago, he was humiliated by the scientific and archaeological community who defined his interpretations as "pseudo" science, archeology, history (re sumerian). It would have been more dignified for him to declare 'tout court' that all of his work was to be considered as fiction.
He would equally have had many (or more) people interested in his work, i.e. followers of Mark Twain: 'Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction'!
Do I know someone who has taken this path and is serene, maybe me?
4-Why is the God of the Bible special?
He is "perceived" as being special due to the heavy sponsorship carried out by the Caesars starting from Constantine I, assisted by christian and non-christian hierarchs (e.g. Flavian dynasty, builders of the Colosseum), for fear that Mithraism would take over, the majority of the Roman army were pro Mithraism (Persia)! See the video "Cesar's Messiah" and books by Tony Bushbi, and many others.
In reality, the incarnation of the Creator, the main theme of the Bible, has always been there, from day one of homo sapiens! Read Fred Zacaria's article on Substack: search the portal, article dated 11/25/22 title "code of life: third part out of three".
5- Did Jesus really exist?
In my opinion (as a believer): Yes...
but according to scientific rational minds: there is no hard proof or sufficient evidence that can stand up in a hypothetical court trial.
All alleged evidence presented is of "literary" nature (mythical-religious narrative), the only proof (perhaps simulated by zealous believers to demonstrate the non-provable) is the inscription on an ossuary relic, a funeral urn with the epitaph:
"James son of Joseph brother of Jesus"!
See the interesting picture by searching the above epitaph.
