Need help debunking Judaism is pagan myth!

<< < (2/2)

EagleEye:
I thought that Abraham tour down the pagan idols.  That certainly isn't a very pagan thing to do.  And few would deny that Judaism is an Abrahamic religion.

As it said, most of the values that positively constructed civilization were pioneered in Judaism.

--- Quote from: Maimonides on August 10, 2007, 02:12:56 PM ---I know astrology plays a role in Judaism such as in Kabbalah, and the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh is similar to the story of Noah, but that does not weaken my faith.

However this documentary brings about questions that I have trouble answering, and would like some other perspectives as to how someone can properly respond to these allegations.


This clip discusses Judaism from 3:20 up until 4:20

This clip discusses Judaism up until 2:08

The weakest part of this anti-G-d argument that it cannot explain what created this Universe and life on this planet. It is very hard to believe this is all just a coincidence.

Those youtube links are down by the way.

In Kabbalah, there are explanations of star signs, as an aspect of nature, how G-d works. But according to the RAMBAN,(with a nun), if we stay close to G-d, we can overcome the influences of the star signs. And we shouldn't utilise them.

The RAMBAM(with a mem), states that astrology and magic is all nonsense. Illusion, and peoples' imagination.

The pagans took G-d out of the equation.
Saying that the the stars rule or influence lives and not G-d, that's pagan.

Remember, in the Tenach, pharoh had astrologers and magicians.
