The interesting thing here as that beast Nero not accepting her death led to her developing into this. Just like in the Book she has seven heads, but during the event while she attempts to accept her death they gain their own will and lash out at her in retaliation. It's good that Guda found her when they did because we would have ended up fighting the bloomed beast of Babylon without ever knowing that Nero got killed by it before it attacked us.

@supersid333 hakuno only chained us with the command spell. If Draco hadn't found us at all she would have died

@Kyonko802 Didn't Hakuno hook us up though?

@Kyonko802 Anime is just more antichrist bullshit, I should have figured. You guys spend hours reading VNs instead of reading the Bible. :antichrist:

@rlier23 @toast fate has directly and indirectly taught me more history and myth than any teacher could ever hope to lmao

@rlier23 @toast but yeah irl Nero wasn't just a whimsical misunderstood dude who wanted people to be happy he was legitimately a psycho. Fate Nero is VERY different.

@rlier23 @Kyonko802 Prominent Biblical scholar Bart Ehrman just released a book about Revelation recently. He's done some podcasts and presentations about it that are on youtube.

@toast @SuperSnekFriend Bart Ehrman is not a theologian, and his only decent works related to the Bible is his pure data collection with manuscripts, and only when he is tard wrangled.
Outside that, he has heavily poisoned the well with manuscript studies and regurgitates what other liberal or even conservative scholars say. He has done great damage to the church by pointing at a bunch of typos in the manuscript tradition and saying "Looky! Looky! The Bible isn't true because the scribe of MSS 568 made a boo boo with Matthew 12:47," all because he didn't like living his family's Christian faith. He's a libtard who is paraded around by the world because of his apostasy and his knowledge of the nitty gritty data.
You don't need him when learning about Revelations.

Switched accounts because of heavy theological posting.

@SuperSnekFriend @SuperSnekFriend I know he's not a theologian. I find that learning about the Bible from outside of devotional sources is enlightening. Biblical scholarship helps me to understand the books of the Bible in their historical context, which helps me better understand the authors actual intentions rather than later interpretations.
-
@toast @SuperSnekFriend >helps me better understand the authors actual intentions rather than later interpretations.
>A man who has every intention to get you to declare that Jesus was mere man who lived and died, never to rise again, and was abused by Paul and his new cult that forced out other "equally legitimate Christianities"
>and a man who claims we don't really know original Bible authors truly intended helps you better understand what the authors originally meant, more than the faithful, both scholarly and non-academic
That is a very unfortunate thing to hear from you, especially since you profess Christ.
This is not about a devotional sources vs scholarly. This is about good, truthful, and trustworthy sources vs evil and untrustworthy ones, regardless of the level of basic knowledge that an evil source, like Erhman, possess.

@SuperSnekFriend @SuperSnekFriend Thank you. :ina_blessed: It's not that I believe Bart Ehrman is the be all and end all either. I disagree pretty strongly on his "making Jesus God" argument. So I'm sure that many of these scholars are better.
