As stated by God,
“This [is] my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.” (Genesis 17:10)
Ok so, what is wrong with God? He always has these weird ideas. Couldn’t he just ask Abram for something else? Why would he want circumcision? It’s like if we were his toys and he has fun playing with us. I cannot understand why God wanted this, like really, what kind of FREAK would want to undergo this process? It has been said that this process begun as a religious sacrifice to ensure fertility and to affirm masculinity, but this leads me to my next point. How can you really ensure your masculinity by having a part of your penis cut? I think it’s just a little strange since a very important aspect that determines your sex is your reproductive system and by being cut a part of it cannot emphasize this.
Then, the story of Lot is told. Lot was tricked by his daughters, which got him drunk and had sex with him in order to preserve her father´s generations. As said in chapter 19,
“Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.” (Genesis 19:32)
So, first of all, what the hell is wrong with these girls? How can they be so disgusting and stupid to have sexual relationships with their father in order to keep breeding? The fact of seeing this in the bible just disturbs me. Eeeewww! Lot´s daughters are so dumb since doing this with your dad it’s considered a sin and an act of adultery. This fits totally into sexual abuse since when having sex with a drunk person, the person is totally unaware of what is happening. These girls have clearly no respect for their father, their mother, and themselves. I hate the fact that during this time women were used to reproduce and their duty was to have kids in order for the family name to continue. Why were women treated in such an inferior way? Why are women considered always as the bad character of the story? In Adam and Eve, Eve was the bad one, and here, the daughters are the sinners since it wasn’t Lot´s intention. I thought this story was kind of disgusting, but at least the daughters had sons which continued the family tree.
After this story ends, another story is introduced, the story of Abraham and Isaac. So basically the story starts when the Lord orders Abraham to make him a sacrifice in the mountain. Loyal Abraham goes with his son, Isaac, to the mountain and when he gets there he realizes that there is nothing to sacrifice, so SURPRISE, he is ordered to sacrifice his son. When he is about to kill poor Isaac, God tell him to stop since he has already proven love to his Lord. Then, Abraham and Isaac return home, happy ending?
According to the story this ended completely normal and they both return home, but really how could Isaac forgive his father? Like really, if my Dad was going to murder me just because this weird voice told him to I would never forgive him. Where is the love? How could Isaac be capable of almost killing his own son? According to me, as a father you should love your son and give your live for him, but this showed me the opposite. Abraham is not a good father at all. Also I think that God is crazy. What kind of maniac which is considered wise and superior would order someone to kill his own son? Each time I read these things I get madder with the Lord since he is so inhuman and doesn’t care about anything. The society God wants is just confusing since he is always punishing everyone who sins, but he is always committing these inhuman acts. It is obvious that God is bipolar and has mood swings every second and that Abraham is a loser who lets God manipulate him and determine everything he does.
