Cain and Abel 11/26/00
------------------------------------------------------------
(Genesis 4:3 - 4:5): While Cain was sweating and working his
ass out in the fields, Abel was raising sheep, cows, and
such. During a time of offering to YWHW, Cain brought
some of the fruit he worked months on growing, weeding,
and harvesting. Abel killed some animals and burnt
the fat as his offering. YHWH, being the loving deity
He is, preferred the slaughter and burning of His
beloved animals to the products of a man's hard work.
Naturally, Cain was pissed.
(Genesis 4:6 - 4:8): YHWH, being totally insensitive to
Cain's months of work and forgetting how awe-inspiring
the rebuttal by a god can be, began to chew Cain's ass
off. Equating the murder of helpless animals with
goodness and equating sacrifices of hard labor as
sinful, YHWH told Cain he should master sin.
So Cain, filled with the instruction and love of the Lord,
killed his brother.
Strangely enough, the all-seeing, all-knowing YHWH was
conspiciously absent during the murder. YHWH, a.k.a. God,
has yet to come in for questioning.
