Tell us more about how sharing values through narrative and myth is sad.

I think, if we are taking the message at face value (which might not be the best idea with a religious dude, but whatevs), it's not sad that it is being shared through narrative and myth, but that this is the best we can find with values we care about.

I mean, what else could I be saying here? Lol. I honestly wonder if people are THIS thick or they're just pretending, so I give people the benefit of the doubt. But, damn, it's frustrating at times. 😔

It's the lack of depth behind it and the evidenced collective arrested development, but it's better than nothing for those who have no knowledge of philosophy and/or Scripture (or the maturity and intellectual competence to process it). 🤷

It's like having to teach an adult to boil an egg when, by then, they should understand the basics of cooking at the very least, but even worse cause we're not talking about something as easily replaced, this is ideology and attitude which are foundational for people and society at large. But, like I said, I'm glad someone is teaching folks to boil eggs!
