the invention of God
the freakish lesson in all of this --- a few tribal elders decided to merge a few gods into one to unify a migrant community, probaby the entire community was 10k-30k at most.. and this blew up for 3000 years and affected maybe 20 billion humans who have lived in that time span. The word AWESOME is often overused but not in this study.

the invention of God
probably thousands of books on this topic, TLDR all of them, here is a concise article showing how desert tribal politics 2500-3000 years ago affected tens of billions of people over the next 3 thousand years. https://www.haaretz.com/archaeology/.premium.MAGAZINE-how-the-jews-invented-god-and-made-him-great-1.5392677 Decades of research into the birth and evolution of the Yhwh cult are summarized in “The Invention of God,” a recent book by Thomas Römer, a world-renowned expert in the Hebrew Bible and professor at the College de France and the University of Lausanne. Römer, who held a series of conferences at Tel Aviv University last month, spoke to Haaretz about the subject. In any case, many scholars agree that Yhwh became the main god of the Jews only after the destruction of the kingdom of Israel by the Assyrians, around 720 BCE. edit -- the original link worked when i first posted, but now is "premium" . I guess God works in mysterious ways. By luck , found this complete one below. https://mysteriousearth.net/2016/06/13/how-the-jews-invented-god-and-made-him-great/ also please no " the Jews did this" gif

loyalty to religion is really loyalty to one's group identity IMO. There's so much personal and group psychology, insecurity and security solution, just too complex. Give it up, all of it.

2018 NBA Offseason Thread -- News, Free Agency, Trades, Etc
i thoujght the draw to Houston for Bron was CP3 himself. If CP3 is gone, his buddy has been sacrificed so he might not be so happy to come.

The NBA Finals- Warriors vs Cavs
best thing about the NBA is the super short off season, even shorter considering the draft and FA mess which keeps fan interest year round. Then the summer league and a brief preseaon to get the fix. 2018-19 is going to be excellent, hope for no key injuries to the power teams.

Lebron wanted to give CLE fans a farewell gift but JR took that dream to hell. If he was 95% gone, it's 100% now.
