content: Oh please, the Bible when it comes to the question of paganism and heathens is extremely contradictory. Forget all the obvious plagarism of the Bible from various Pagan religions but what about the Bible condemning Paganism in one second but in the other second you see the Bible praising certain Pagan leaders such as Cyrus. And why? Because Cyrus licked the ass of the jews so of course the bible will praise him while condemning other pagan leaders that opposed the tribe. This is because it's the jews who wrote the damn book, the bible is basically jew propaganda. Why do you think the Egyptians and Babylonians were heavily demonized in the Bible? Because these two groups of people opposed the tribes shenanigans which was the main reason for their demonization and not because of their Pagan ways.  No matter what religion the ancient Assyrians followed, they were astute and they knew how to keep the tribe in their place because they had leaders with testicular fortitude who actually cared for their people unlike today and this was the point of this post..
