Hold up! So King Solomon from THE BIBLE had 700 WIVES and 300 SIDE CHICKS but ONLY had... 4 children?

[Diunx]

Is god getting so defensive and jelous about people worshiping other gods proves that they actually existed?

 

[Capitol]

You’re forgetting that he was a king…

He took the guards chances at having wives too. Maybe they accidentally leave the gates open one day

 

[KingDanz]

What is the esoteric meaning of this story?

 

[MostReal]

That aint the point.

How are you smashing 1000 women and only producing 4 damn kids?

Probably only claimed 4

They are nothing more than the fallen angels that were casted out of heaven.

I feel like if someone claimed that many women back then people would legit decide to just kill him. Like, I don't know how many Israelites were around back then but taking 1000 women out of the pool to choose from would fukk up a lot of young men's options even if the population was 1million. I don't think people would stand for that shyt.

Tons of far-fetched make believe stuff is in those holy books. The Holy Bible is basically a fantasy novel

Allegories with lessons, but people take them literally. IMO Jesus addressed this when he warned his disciples about "casting pearls before swine."

 

[Shadow King]

He was impotent

This is also a possibility. This is the reason Henry VIII had 6 marriages. He thought all of them were barren when the problem was him.

Where do you draw the line of allegory and what's supposed to "factual"?

Bible God is egotistic narcissistic and manipulative

 

[Neuromancer]

This shyt is an allegory.

They were glazing him over the years to win his favor and the favor of his successors.

"He had so many wives! Women couldn't resist him. He was also the smartest person i ever met. Tall too, he was almost like a giant!"

He probably was capping himself to increase his prestige. Name me ONE authoritarian(yes all kings are authoritarian) that doesn't exaggerate or lie+have an entire PR apparatus to make him sound great.
