Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

And from my perspective, I only see the people that have the emotional attachment to religion that are more willing to criticize these archaeological methods because if the archaeological methods are sound, then the conclusions that they support just completely and totally dismantle their world belief.

Well, I mean, if archaeological records are sounds, the archaeological record, in my opinion, supports the analogy that I just gave you with Sean, that the Jewish religion that we know of it was invented after 587 BC.

And my father was a pastor.

It was very, very, you know, a lot of social pressure to believe.

And it was the Old Testament in particular where I would read that and I would just think, this is hocus pocus bullshit at eight years old.

Like, you can't choose to be that person.

Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

That was just my logical mind.

And I would shut the Bible and I'd rock back and forth and go, no, you believe, you believe, you believe, you believe, you believe.

Because there was just so much social pressure to believe.

And I remember being in Sunday school in numerous different churches around the country because we moved around all the fucking time.

And every little kid

seemed to always have an issue with one part in the Old Testament where it said that Adam and Eve were the first humans and that they had kids and then all of a sudden their kids went out and married people.

And I can't tell you how many Sunday school classes I was in, people raising their hands saying, did God create other people?

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

Like, how did that make sense?

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

In that interpretation, it doesn't make sense.

The apologetics, the mental gymnastics, you have to jump through to come up with a reasonable conclusion.

So when I read Genesis of the Grail Kings, and it said that Adam and Eve weren't the first Homo sapiens, they were the first Homo sapiens sapiens, meaning the first Homo sapiens to have the blood of the gods infused with them.

Digital Social Hour

because Enki wanted mankind to be elevated to the status of a god, so that's why he infused the blood with him.

Then it makes sense of, oh, this is how their children went out and married other people.

So not even on archaeological record, just on the mere basis of just fewer mental gymnastics, Occam's razor, the most simple explanation wins.
