Magnum Mysterium
Click to watch 7 minutes,
One of my Christian friends shared this high-quality presentation with me.
It basically uses the book of Job to illustrate that humans are ill-equipped to determine what is ultimately "good" or "evil".
Taken at face-value, it basically dismantles Abrahamic Law.
And it's almost identical to this 9 minute masterpiece,
#ETHICS - It is unethical to presume someone has done something "bad" because they suffer misfortune.
#PHILOSOPHY - How we determine what is ethical and unethical is ontologically (and practically) significant.
#LIBERTARIAN - Knowing when and how to respect the (ethical) beliefs of others is the core promise of libertarian philosophy.
#INFORMATIONWAR - The great informationwar is primarily driven by ontological conflict.
#LOGICZOMBIE - Searching for logical coherence.
#INTP - Pure analysis without preconceptions.

Your scathing critique is requested.
What stood out to me was the part near the end, when "YHWH" actually "explains itself".
The case is an appeal to complexity, which is a classic appeal to ignorance.
I'm so great and smart and you're a worm who can't possibly comprehend the true scope of my ultimate genius.
And (IFF) you accept that argument as fact (THEN) "YHWH" is incomprehensible and any words or laws attributed to it are twisted and unreliable "interpretations" by mere mortal worms.
It also drives home the point that being rich =/= good and being poor =/= bad.
I also find it shocking that the story seems to imply that after the death of your entire immediate family, everything is just great when you get remarried and have double the number of kids.
How lucky is that Job guy!! Because every0one knows that your immediate family are just, you know, basically FUNGIBLE ASSETS.

Thanks for the excellent time-coded link!
And Bobby De Niro?
Have you written "worm"? Can't comprehend your genius. True! ;-)
I've seen Robert De Niro the first time in this context. Don't know what this had lead to. Probably nothing good. Perhaps the contrary.
