I'll humor you
Genesis is the INVERSE of every pagan Creation mythos.
Every pagan myth tells you that the world was born out of chaos and conflict. There were giants, tyrant gods, beasts, once but gods came and conquered them

Mankind was born from the rubble of the chaos.
We were never planned, just tolerated because they like our sacrifices

Genesis pokes fun at it and tells you the opposite -everything was "God saw that it was good". Everything was born out of love and order, and humans were decieved into corrupting God's gift for us

And this is just the tip
Remember the serpent?

The serpent נָחָשׁ (Nāḥāš) in the garden actually has 3 meanings

As a noun, it means snake
As a verb, it means shining
As an adj, it means divinator

Lucifer is the greatest of all the angels. He was meant to be the herald of God's might. Thus, it is clear why he is shining and a divinator

He was also depicted as a snake because, during this time, the snake is seen as the symbol of divinity. The Akkadians, Egyptians, Hittites, etc, all uphold the snake as the icon of immortality and divine grace

But the Bible tells you the opposite - the snake is the devil

Right from the very start, up to the very end, the Bible stands as a counter-culture to the common pagan ideologies
As if it were fighting against the world and its deceptions

Stop playing with your salvation

Even the Talmud confirms that God stopped accepting sacrifices after 30 AD

Take your life seriously. I beg of thee

Correction:
*non Christians are bad and degenerate

Say all the memes you want
Christianity is the BIGGEST healthcare and charity organization in the world. EVER

Much of the world runs on Christian ideology, believe it or not
Democracy and Human Rights run on the Christian belief that "All are equal in the eyes of God"
The whole anti-slavery movement was started by Christians as early as 600 ADs when St. Francis and Queen Bathilde banned the enslavement of Christians
And every single abolitionist did it in the name of God and God alone

Jesus is the One True God. All else are just demons and in disguise

The reason for Christianity's popularity towards the lower class is not because of its promises of heaven even to the peasants

It's popular because it is the FIRST healthcare and charity organization in the entire world. Christianity advocates for everyone to act like Jesus, who was a doctor who never charged one cent.
This is bound to always be popular with the lower classes, especially in times of distress.

Rome itself had writings about how when Egypt was struck by a plague, Christians immediately flocked to provide aid. It was said that "The Christians died so the Egyptians may live"

Christians are so good at PR that, in an attempt to revive paganism, Emperor Julian accused Christians of having sympathy only for show

No other religion does that, and this is why Christianity shall always dominate. Sooner or later

Free Will means the ability to choose between pleasing God and angering him

They choose to anger God
God is now angry. Well done
Now, why are you complaining? Isn't this what you want?

The command forbids *graven images
Icons represent God the same way texts in the bible represents him

Also, icons are actually older than Jesus, as old Hebrews used mezuzahs and phylacteries the same way we use crosses and images of Christ.

More so that ideas aren't scarce
>Gaming "industry" is fake and gay
AAA and the fake and gayness of the music "industry" is evidence of this
>Games are art and devs should thus be releasing their games like artists
Pirating pngs of art is common and has no DRM
Artists often release their stuff for free then shill their Patreon or get money by actual fans via internet or cons

PS
Christians are the REAL Jews
We actually worship Yahhweh

The Jews are worshipping something or someone else

Nah, you can't
Big Bang was condemned by the scientific field as Christian propaganda. In fact, it was created by a priest no less

It is you guys who are sheepishly pretending it is not
