聖經是邪惡的 | 為什麼辯解者忽視這些經文? (The Bible is EVIL | Why apologists IGNORE these verses)
- God as a loving father. It casts him as a cosmic tyrant, callously experimenting with human lives and souls. Another hurdle that this defence struggles to overcome is accounting for moral regressions in scripture. If divine revelation is truly progressive, how do we explain instances where later bible passages appear less ethically advanced than earlier ones? For instance, the book of Genesis, which precedes Deuteronomy, has Abraham boldly negotiating with God to spare the righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah. Fast forward to Deuteronomy, we find God commanding the utter destruction of entire civilisations. This isn't progress. But perhaps most damningly, this defence implicitly admits that our modern moral sensibilities are superior to those presented in parts of the bible. By suggesting that we've progressed beyond the brutality of Deuteronomy, believers inadvertently confess a truth they dare not speak out loud. The good book isn't, in fact, good. Progressive revelation is, at base, the attempt to reconcile the irreconcilable, to force ancient atrocious texts into alignment with contemporary ethical standards. It's a tacit admission that significant portions of scripture are ethically indefensible. This theological contortion not only fails to resolve the core issues, but introduces new logical inconsistencies and theological conundrums, further eroding the credibility of the very texts it aims to defend.
上帝是一位慈愛的父親。它把上帝塑造成一個宇宙暴君,冷酷無情地拿人的生命和靈魂做實驗。這種辯護難以克服的另一個障礙是解釋經文中的道德倒退。如果神的啟示真的是漸進的,那麼我們如何解釋《聖經》中後來的經文在道德上似乎不如先前的經文先進?例如,在《申命記》之前的《創世記》中,亞伯拉罕大膽地與上帝談判,要求饒恕所多瑪和蛾摩拉的義人。到了《申命記》,我們發現上帝命令徹底摧毀整個文明。這不是進步。但也許最令人震驚的是,這種辯護暗中承認我們的現代道德感優於《聖經》中的部分內容。通過暗示我們已經超越了《申命記》中的殘暴,信
- God specifies his targets, such as in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, where specific cities are named, or in the command to utterly destroy the Amalekites, where a particular group is singled out. Even within Deuteronomy itself, we see specificity, like the command to destroy the cities of Sion. So, why are the conquest commands in Deuteronomy not similarly specified? Why is the criterion for destruction merely proximity to Israel, rather than specific peoples or places? This omission has led to millennia of misuse and abuse of these passages to justify colonialism, slavery, and genocide – entailments that an all-loving God would have anticipated. Lastly, proponents of this defence don't apply it consistently. When's the last time you heard a theist argue for a limited application of passages that they favour, such as love your neighbour as yourself? This selective application exposes the argument as a convenient escape hatch for difficult verses, rather than a consistent interpretive principle.
上帝指明瞭他的目標,比如在毀滅所多瑪和蛾摩拉時,上帝點出了具體的城市,或者在徹底毀滅亞瑪力人的命令中,上帝挑出了一個特定的群體。甚至在申命記本身,我們也能看到特殊性,比如毀滅錫安城的命令。那麼,為什麼申命記中的征服命令沒有類似的具體規定呢?為什麼摧毀的標準僅僅是靠近以色列,而不是具體的民族或地方?這一疏忽導致這些經文被誤用和濫用了數千年,為殖民主義、奴隸制和種族滅絕辯護,而這正是全愛的上帝所預料到的。最後,這種辯護的支持者並沒有始終如一地運用它。你上一次聽到有神論者主張有限度地應用他們所贊成的經文,比如
