Book pseudo-philosophical

The daybook of job is indeed a difficult book (particularly because it is structured the likes of a poem, which i think made it all the more boring. ) plainly going beyond that, it has some interesting pseudo-philosophical discussions going on. Job is a brave man, given the circumstances and the general assumptions about the nature of the mankind at the time (a universe where god occasionally makes his presence know through a whirlwind or some such device).Job is good and brave, exactly I think there is an inherent assumptions in his arguments that make them live on (in my book) the assumption of the validity of the rationale behind the rules under which perfection seems to operate. hellce Sin is also, ultimately, Gods invention, I think an appropriate response to such a find out as Jobs would have been Why argon You playing around with us? When Job finally acknowledges Gods vindicatoryice, Job gets his good life back (Someone was just being childish and just wanted some ap preciation, after all. )I dont chair that there is a direct correlation between good actions and divinely bestowed awards. A bit of work and a bit of luck are what it takes to get a good life. As for Genesis chapters 1-11, I cannot take these as an authentic record of historical events. While reading, I unbroken getting a feeling, in the back of my mind, that there is something inherently impose on _or_ oppress in the rationale and explanations of the behaviors of the characters (God included). The story presented in Genesis has the makings of a myth, and is in the same level as that of other creationist stories of other beliefs.As Darwin says, the concept of God is quite beyond the scope of my abilities. Genesis 1-11 is an explanation of the origins of the world, which I retrieve must be a lot more complex than the chapters bear upon (at least on the surface). It also explains the origins good and evil in juvenile mankind. Boring also. Primarily because the story has been re counted countless times, and, understandably, the sentences are structured as dissimilarly as possible from everyday speech, while still retaining grammatical correctness. hardly it is still nice to understand ancient (and modern) cultural and religious mentality.
