Ive had this theory on the bible for a while. This is it.
The 1st testament is about god and government being corrupt. God is power tripping and abusing his power just like the government. The 2nd testament is about god taking form as a human and experiencing the corrupt system he set up as Jesus. Jesus is a good person but good people are bad for a corrupt system. The Quaran is a continuation. Muhammad is the most common name in the world. Jesus was dark skinned and middle eastern. We are all the continuation and the next part is still being written.
Ive been reading the bible and its making sense. God put the tree of knowledge in the middle of Eden. I think he always expected and knew they were going to eat it and set Adam and Eve up to do it. He is supposedly all powerful and knowing.
God lied to Adam and Eve and told them they were going to die if they ate it. He told them it was wrong to eat it and in a way laid the seeds of the shame they would experience after they ate it. Before Eve ate the apple the serpent told her that they would not die if they ate it. This was true because after Adam and Eve ate it they did not die. God told Adam and Eve that the serpent deceived them even though he told them the truth about the fruit. God was the one that deceived the two by telling them they would die which was a lie.
After Adam and Eve ate the fruit they were punished and banished from Eden.
The tree and the fruits remind me of the war on drugs. Forbidden knowledge reminds me of whistle blowers like Edward Snowden and Gary Webb that are punished for revealing the truth about corruption in government.
The government has lied about the dangers of marijuana and other drugs (specifically psychedelics ). Even saying that if anyone partook they would lose their mind and possibly die too. We now know this is not true.
Drugs were even brought in and distributed with the help of the government. Rick Ross who was one of the first big cocaine dealers got his drugs from an FBI informant. Gary Webb was possibly assassinated by the government for revealing this knowledge.
Many people are now punished to prison and banished from living a normal life because of drug charges.
