OTHER COMMS IN THE HISTORYVERSE:
But then what You believe exists isn't YHWH, or any conception of it that is actually believed by the peoples' whose faith you are appropriating, but an entirely new theology of Your own creation which primarily shares nomenclature and not much else with said faith. If anything, that's at least as disrespectful and dismissive as other notions of divine universality that You say are religiously dismissive. You are asserting your right to rewrite the cultural and theological notions of these faiths and claim it as the one valid way simply because it suits Your culture and theology.
Why then is the Roman conception of the universe invalid in Rome? Did they not inhabit a different universe?
Actually, I once heard from a Deacon that Genesis 1 is a letter addition to the Testament than the rest of Genesis. In the original version of the story, Elohim did not create the Earth. That makes sense, because Elohim was originally just the storm god in a pantheon of other deities, some of whom were more important than Him.
I think My interpretation of Abrahamism is closer to the older versions, from before it developed monotheism.
Cause they marched off to other places and forced those places to be Rome. The Romans did a lot of the early work in destroying the precolonial multiverse. A lot of the later work was done by the British Empire. We used to have a multiverse. Different people in different lands were able to have entirely different cultures and metaphysics. They constructed consensus reality in very different ways. Then the Christians said no.
