Religion
Why are we here? Is there an afterlife? Does a soul exist? Why is God said to be omnipotent, yet in Genesis, he uses clay to create man like a craftsman as opposed to a creator? Indeed, why does he rest after his act of creation? Why is there no archaeological evidence showing a resultant mass extinction if there was a global flood? Why do Chinese records show no such event? And why is it so similar to Mesopotamian flood myths like Enuma Elish, which predated it? Is the earth optimized for life? Why does God want us to show submission to him, yet we pose no threat to him, and he is omnipresent? Why does he want males to mutilate their sexual organs as part of a covenant? Indeed, why does he choose a virgin to have his son, yet he can guarantee paternity using other means? If God created us, why is our DNA 99% similar to that of Chimpanzees? Why is God a father and not a mother? He was present in the Old Testament, took the side of Israel in battles, and only later became a Universal God we will see on judgment day.
Why did he leave Mount Sinai? How did the colonialists use religion as a tool of subjugation, and why is the Church propagating weak masculinity today? What can men do about it? Is the Bible the word of God? How can we know? Who was God addressing when he said, “Let us make man in our own image” in Genesis?
Is Yahweh, El, Elohim, and El Shaddai the same being? Did David fight Goliath?
Between the Big Bang and creation, which one has explanatory power and is better evidenced?
Why do Biblical scholars regard Daniel and Acts of the Apostles as forgeries? If the authors of the gospels are unknown, can we rely on them? Why does the Bible say snakes eat dust, yet they don’t? Why does it say we came from dust, yet dust is mainly weathered rock?
While aligning strictly to critical methods, scholarship, and verifiable evidence, Jacob Aliet uses archaeology, astronomy, neurology, philosophy, quantum physics, paleontology, biblical scholarship, comparative religion, and other methods to answer all these questions and more.
