Man is the OP because nature can't type.

I mean a yard stick can measure tensile strength but it's not the right tool for the job.

Circumference, jeez. Is this your first gas tank measuring party?

I'm not joking. Get some string and meet me in the driveway.

Dude, go measure your gas tank right now and don't come back until you've got its full dimensions. Then we'll see about whipping it up in CAD.

Reiterating the fact that this is a lie.

True story- this thread was going to be called "whats your favorite Adam Sandler movie" but then i realized i already made that thread a while back.

Lickable wallpaper from Charlie and the chocolate factory.

No, this is more like: *roll out of bed* "Shit, monday. Time to work... Eh, fuck it." *BLACKOUT* *WAKEUP* *walk through front door of house* "Man, I sure had a lot of meetings today. I'll have to remember to get those L15 notes to Jerry first thing tomorrow morning. Glad I tried something different for lunch today, Brenda told me about this new sandwich shop on the other side of the square there and she was right, they got good fucking pastrami. It does suck that I had to tell Len that I couldn't switch shifts for him to be able to coach his kid's soccer game next tuesday. I did let him know that Zoe was looking to swap her thursday night next week." It's like, you're still you, you remember everything about it being you after the fact, but for that chosen span of time you aren't you.

How much time would you cede to oblivion?

Oh shit, something else I wanted to add to the argument about different interpretations of the lord being different gods, or something like that. Say there's this dude named Doug. The folks Doug works with think he's a fucking asshole. His family thinks he's a decent fellow, and to paraphrase the offspring, in his head he's the dopest trip. Different interpretations by different groups of people, same dude.

Thank you, your input is invaluable in this discussion.

Loving to argue is great, but when someone posts evidence that proves the point of their argument, and the response you throw out is Like... what am i supposed to do with that?

https://lmgtfy.app/?q=name+of+catholic+god https://lmgtfy.app/?q=name+of+protestant+god https://lmgtfy.app/?q=name+of+mormon+god https://lmgtfy.app/?q=name+of+christian+god https://lmgtfy.app/?q=name+of+jewish+god

The Christian god has a name. Its ywh or a derivative therof. Question answered. And i tagged pooh because she's Jewish and can give firsthand knowledge that the god worshipped by the jewish people is the same god who is worshipped by the christian people, whose name is ywh or a derivative thereof.

Then im sorry i heavily misunderstood the argument. I think we both need to take a breath and clearly re-state our positions and questions. I assert that the god of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are the same entity and its name throughout the centuries has been some variation of the original YWH, such as yaweh, jehova, elohim, and allah. What is your question/assertion?

And fuck the romans didnt even really do much to alter Christianity that heavily- mostly just changed the dates of some high holidays and tossed a couple books out that didn't really fit, like the book of eve and the book of enoch, if i recall correctly.

The fuck you mean cherry picking? Your argument is absurd. You're claiming that the god of the old testament is not the same god of the new testament, even though its factual that theyre one in the same, and your evidence is that the god of the new testament told hitler to kill the people who preferred to stick to the old testament, and that is a demonstrably false statement. @1pooh4u please help me.

Hitler wasn't driven by religious motivation, so no.

And in any case thats all not even directly on the topic of that deities name, which is YWH. The jewish language doesn't have vowels and i, y, and j (w all over the place, l too) love switching places as languages develop, so the Christian god's name is Yaweh, Jehovah, elohim, allah... Sure as fuck ain't Thor or Herra or Zues or Jupiter or any other European deity.

The impression you're under is wrong. The deity of the abrahamic religions (Christianity, islam, Judaism) is the same guy. Thats just how it is, same holy books and everything. Christianity was heavily modified when the romans took it over, yes, but the god has been the same dude the whole time. The being that created Adam and Steve is the same guy that told Abraham "kill me a son", is the same guy that flooded the earth and told Noah to build and ark, is the same guy that talked to Moses as a burning bush, is the same guy that sent Jesus down to get sent right back up, is the same guy that said "hey Muhammad, wassup?".

Say if you're looking to switch religions...I've got one I'd like to pitch to ya.

... Are you under the impression that Jesus told the Jews their god was fake and invented a whole new one? One day Abraham says "Hey, there's this feller in the sky called YWH. Told me to kill my son, but then told me not to. Anyways that's god for ya. Let's get to worshipping." Then a long time after that one of his descendents is like "Yo, my name is Yeshua, and boy howdy that's a pretty cool Yaweh/Jehova we all worship. I'm his kid, by the way. Let party." Then the romans killed him and wrote INRI over his head (Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum [Iashua of Nazareth, king of the jews]). A bunch of the followers of Jehova were all like "Shit, that guy was legit with his devotion to Jehova. Let's all follow him." A bunch of them were like "Ehhhh, I mean I don't really buy it, we'll stick to worshipping just Yaweh/Jehova/Elohim (same deity, lotsa nicknames). No Christ for us, thanks. Then a bit after that a bunch of the original Jehova worshippers were like "You know who's totally unappreciated? Abraham's son Ishmael. Dude was fucking boss." the original Yaweh fans were all like "Man, Ishmael wasn't shit, Abraham's son Isaac is where it's at." So they spit up the faith, the originalists and Isaac fans kept calling him Yaweh, the Ishmael fans started calling him Allah, and the Joshua fans went with "god" after saying Jehova was made illegal. Then a loooooooooong time after that the Jehova's witnesses pop up and are all like "Fuck, let's just call him Jehova again."
