All right, here’s the situation: We have, through some hypothetical and inexplainable process discovered incontrovertible evidence proving the existence of God as depicted in the Old and New Testaments. It turns out that the Christians were right all along- the Bible is the word of God and accurately describes him and all his features/powers, etc.
Scientists all over the world are now in near-total agreement that God is real and that’s that.
The inevitable resistance movement is formed and you’re a part of it. The top leaders of this resistance movement meet up in a shady bunker somewhere to discuss what the plan is.
Well? Where do we go from here? How exactly do we go about fighting God?
In the name of Jesus one is already more powerful then all other gods, so that takes care of all except one.
To knock off God Himself, not a chance, but IMHO He is willing to give you your very own universe to do whatever you want with. You will get it with nothing in it, all creation there is up to you. He is also willing to take you back if you ask Him.
Baldur was killed with mistletoe. There is a justification for it, in that mistletoe had not promised not to harm Baldur, but maybe that’s a coverup. I suggest a component of mistletoe in the sabot, just to be sure.
Ignore Kanic, all you will get is hard line fundamentalist christianity. Kanic can not look at any question other than in their own small universe-view.
So we’ve got a mistletoe-coated anti-tank round housing the Spear of Destiny.
We’ll lure him like Cain did, with a sacrifice of fruits and vegetables. God gets pissed when you don’t offer him blood and he’ll want to come see what’s up.
And we’ll just use “iron chariots” (tanks) to defeat God’s servants on Earth. It worked for Judah’s enemies.
Also failing/as a backup to the Babylon Spear, we could try and determine if the devil also exists, and if it’s possible to kill him—he’s arguably weaker than God, but more powerful than humanity. It may be possible to use him as a weapon against God, but keep him on a leash (or under a sword of Damocles). Or simply destroy him once he’s outlived his usefulness, and be free of the Dei once and for all.
If God is material - and the Bible often speaks of him as such - then nuclear weapons should be enough; probably overkill in fact. If he’s something more exotic then black holes should work; making or grabbing one is a tiny bit beyond what we can do yet though. Of course, both methods require he make an appearance.
Wake up Godzilla, and send him against God; Godzilla can handle iron chariots just fine so we know who’d win, right?
An idea from the novel The Jehovah Contract that I mentioned in the other thread, in response to Ranchoth’s comment.
If gods are defined or powered by belief, convince people that God can die. They had a a whole “Godkiller” ad campaign, complete with “Godkiller” T-shirts with the logo and a slogan (this was written before 2000) “In the first day of the year 2000, God will die.”
Exactly. He doesn’t necessarily have to show himself and he might be able to appear in more than one place at once. That’s not even considering he might just stay materialized in Heaven. I suggest we pump way more funding into space research and attempt to locate it and put an end to the spiritual slave ships taking souls off to worship him for an eternity. Then we could try to ship nukes to Heaven.
