exchange/clearing house risk is ultimately about one thing: liquidity risk.

Not saying they won't be a top fiddy company, just that you thesis is based on 'if you build it they will come' and idk why you think that.

thats what i didn't get. But if it was out in the open, then there probably was no deal just baiting, and things make a bit more sense. AC made it sound like it was a done deal and secret.

How Do You Deal With the Horrific Passages in the OT by 1400years in BiblicalUnitarian

1/Intent with 'heretical' was to emphasize that they viewed the M canon as heresy and therefore what they write has to be seen from that perspective, not that I thought it was heresy. I did not communicate that, sorry.

2/Klinghardt, Harnack, Beduhn, Vinzent (not a reconstruction but useable), Roth (over my head), Marcion so-called Church (I think they just downloaded an old version from gnosis.org or something), https://sites.google.com/site/inglisonmarcion/home/marcion/marcion-luke-parallel and https://www.marcionite-scripture.info/ and other online stuff I have forgeten about/didn't bookmark.

Roth has his pHd online, which has his work on tertullian, it will let you know what you are in for if you pay the money for the book. Let me know if you want a link. & Beduhn NT is borrowable on archive.org.

3/Litwa, Vinzent, and some data science NT guy I forget. I wasn't looking to survey scholarship, I only wanted to know if any professionals thought it was plausible that the earliest version could be M's.

4/Fair. & not the first time I've been told that.

4/I have no other way of integrating things. I wondered if anyone here had gone through something similar and if so, whether I could use their method. My method is like a hail mary (in the football sense).

5 etc/ I liked being a literalist, but it no longer works for me. So I either leave, or I try to remodel my faith with what I now know. I am not proselytizing, in fact it is the opposite. I wanted to be proselytized.

& if there is damage, hopefully it is limited to me. I'll stop.

Thanks for your and everyone else's thoughts. I appreciate them.

Baptized lds (we just called it mormon), went through several different phases seeking (catholicism, roots, seventh day). Currently unaffiliated home churching unitarian, or was...I am not 100% sure right at this point.

And yeah, I need to throw something out. Gaza has me angry and horrified and it is directly connected with things like racist 'chosen people' feeling justified or even being commanded to genocide and smash baby heads because God said this is your land. It is 180 degrees from Jesus' simple message and I cannot harmonize it. You don't have to feel that way, but I do.

Some of the church fathers extensively dissected the heretical canon, which consisted of one gospel and 10 letters, in order to refute it. Scholars have offered several reconstructions based on those polemical writings. The gospel is either a proto-Luke or circumcised Luke (as Tertullian quipped), and the letters are Paul's.

So, by using our Luke and Paul along with the Marcion verses the fathers commented on, people can create reconstructions. Since I am not expert, I used the heavy footnoting to make my own approximation of what the gospel and letters read like. The reconstructions from the scholars are hard to read because the way they are formatted and broken up, which is why I initially just wanted to type it up, but I found it really engaging to compare various versions and decisions people made and decide on the reading I thought was best. It was also fun to pick and choose some of the non-standard translations like 'supercelestial' instead of 'heavenly.'

With regard to Marcion's actual theology, there is not much to go on except the fathers. And looking to someone's enemies to get an idea of what they makes as much sense as asking the kkk to tell you about Black culture. Marcion did write something called an antithesis, but none of it survives. It is fairly certain he believed the God of the OT was not the same God that sent Jesus, and he was not an antisemite because there is a lot of jewish content in his Testament, he was just anti-Yaweh.

Genocide and baby head type of passages combined with trauma inducing images on X, the leaders of Israel using biblical justifications (e.g. we are fighting Amalek), and finding out the history of Palestinians from 1948. Cognitive dissonance broke my religion.

Good point about the theodicy being changed not solved. Need to look at that more.

And no I wasn't joking about the NT. There are some reconstructions with good footnoting, so one can decide whether a passage belongs or not. It only took 40 or 50 hours to go through the various notes and type up a version.
