Now I want to see Kratos fighting Jesus hand to hand and killing him. Maybe have the holy ghost be a monstrous gigantic dove. Punch the Abrahamic god in the face. Or just kicking Muhammad in the groin. But have it all happen in the exact same fight. That would rile up a bunch of people.
While every religion has its crazies (GTFO, orthodox & hassids), I found judaism to be far more critical and questioning than other religions that I’ve been exposed to. Literally the opposite of black & white thinking, a bunch of the religious texts are actually just arguments of different scholars (contemporaries of christ) offering opposing viewpoints and interpretations of older doctrines. (I’ve got an unfounded theory that this is why so many jewish people go into the study of law.)
That being said, I am not a religious person and despite being raised jewish, I now consider myself an atheist. Technically a satanist if we’re talking about giving my money to some kind of church.
The boy is reading from the Torah at his Bar Mitzvah (someone correct me if I have that wrong), which is part of the ceremony of "becoming a man" for Jewish folks.
