Why Atheism?
(04-04-2024, 08:33 PM)SteveII Wrote: So your belief that ancient Israel and Christians believed in a humanoid God and the transcendent conception is a "post biblical innovations derived from greco-roman philosophy" is flat out wrong. You are welcome to provide references we can explore.

These are the two most famous book on the subject. It's the academic consensus amongst the scholars of the Bible and theologians that early Christians and Jews believed in a humanoid God and that god as a transcendent being is largely a post biblical innovation influenced by Greco-Roman philosophy; the fact you can see this slow transformation in the books of the OT from the oldest to the newest one is evidence of this influence amongst other things.
