Zeus, Medusa Sisters, Hercules, Archiles were believed to have walked this earth, they have followers and lots of temples were dedicated to their worship. Did all these people also exist?

I am not good with identity theft.
so I , bishop4life humbly tell the public that I am not "bishop of ozubulu".

as to your request, you cannot curse a cursed entity.
what other curse will be more than knowing the truth and still be in denial of it just so you can eat kilishi?

what curse can be more than being alive, but the only time you talk to people is on a 3d edited video?

Lol, that could be tales by moonlight, I agree. But what would you call a book which its contents are filled with talking snakes, talking donkeys, virgin mothers, rising bones, flying men, men walking on water and living in Fish for days?
You don't have a point. grin

Well understanding the Bible helps shed more light on ALL the things you mentioned here.

The talking serpent could be seen as a puppet and a puppeteer. Are the puppets actually talking? No is the answer. Same way Satan used the animal (serpent) to thoroughly deceive Eve.

The judgement passed after the rebellion wasn't given to the animal serpent but to the main actor SATAN the devil, the one referred to as the ORIGINAL SERPENT. Hence we can see that it wasn't the animal serpent doing the talking, but it was SATAN behind the scene.

One key to understanding the Bible is by comparing what it says to other portions of the Bible. It answers all life's big questions like
What happens to us when we die
Can we see our dead loved ones again?
Can there be real and lasting peace on earth?
Why so much sufferings?


These questions and many more have their answers in the Bible. True and satisfiable answers you can trust.

I really love that talking donkey part:

Numbers 22:27-30 (KJV)

And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.
And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?
And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee.
And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.

That talking donkey saved that fool's ass...

Numbers 22:31-33 (KJV)

Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.
And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me:
And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive.


I think far less credit was being given to that talking donkey than it deserved for saving her master's life, and also being much wiser than him and many humans.

A lot of human lives would be saved if they listened more to the "voices" of animals.

God bless.

P.s. All these atheists here arguing foolishly, they could learn a thing or two from Balaam's story, because the animals are not that foolish.

God of the gaps.

This is why science and religion has clashes.

You just came to a definite conclusion on something simply because you don't have knowledge of it and filled it with God.
Let me for argument sake say God did it, but are you willing to study and research on how this God did it, or will you choose to remain in ignorance and live in your conclusion and never look for the answer?

Imagine if meteorologist and climatologist just concluded that 'God is the cause' and stopped trying to understand how rainfall occurs, clouds and weather patterns from or other branches of science and just concluded with God did it.

Humanity would had never expanded it's understanding of the world and all modern technology, science, medicine etc. will be non existent.

And a scientific explanation exists for the formation of uranium, same as the explanation for why clouds from and rainfall happens etc. and it isn't "God did it" because that answer never gets anyone anywhere.
Since when did the conclusion that God did it equate to not studying about how God did it?

If you read about Babylonian, Sumerian and Mesopotamian mythologies, it is hard to take bible stories seriously.
And you can see where they came from.

If you try to tell them this they won't listen, anything that doesn't show the dominance of their beliefs is false.

Imagine for a second that the religion of Balaam was adopted by the Romans instead, they would be arguing that this is definite proof of the existence of Baal.

It's not rocket science.
Certain stories/names in the bible were adapted from somewhere or events that actually happened. Same way the Spider-Man movie is based in a real location, (New York) but we can't conclude that a man who shoots spider webs and flies in the air exists.
But I don't expect much from folks who won't read the article but jump into conclusions that a donkey once talked simply because an inscription which contained a name was found.
It's only a brain dead mofo that'll believe a snake and donkey talked simply because a 2000 year old book said so.
But you'll call these same archeologists liars when they show you 'alleged' bone fossils of Dinosaurs. Who is fooling who?

Were you there and you have evidence that the donkey didn't actually talk?
