Sort of -

So there are three characters, and that one is the first.

With it, it spells "emet" - life.
Remove it and it spells - "met" - death.

Note: I know this is open to some debate, but ya won't find much different. Fact is there really aren't that many kinds of stories.

>>53224367

basically, people want to know why he is famous, so they figure there must be something to what he is saying.

It could all be complete non-sense, it wouldn't make the least bit of difference. He probably either fabricated his references or paid to have someone respected endorse him.
>>
>>53224403

How would I know? I didn't come up with the theory. All I'm saying is that given the vast majority of stories fit into these concepts, and human nature being the same wherever ya go, it isn't surprising that some stories have similar themes or people do similar things. Just like there was no worldwide flood, but people have a lot of flood myths. You can find similar stories all over the place. Just because they share similarities doesn't mean they come from a common source. People get bored and tell stories or great deeds get blown up, or people have a downfall. They don't all come from one primordial truth or story. Just like modern urban legends and creepypasta don't come from some truth. It's stories and people like stories with a point. So, lots of stories have similar themes because if there is no lesson to be learned and it's just "Bob built a bridge. The end." Nobody cares. We either want stories with a point or a story with some kind of drama.

Try reading ancient moral tales from ancient cultures. 99% of them will have the same exact shit in them, just told 1,001 different ways.
>>
>>53224527
You can cite scripture to endorse any position. Its an immutable document bereft of all meaning. No interpretation is too much of a stretch. There is not so much a "correct" interpretation as there is a mainstream one, which is often not what the author intended.
>>
>>53223395
I don't know this
>>
>>53224580
But if you don't understand the context of the categories or the correlation between them, then was it the point of categorization?

Its like saying all things material are animal vegetable or mineral.

Its not true, its useless, and its asinine.
>>
>>53224687

Because they fit. Are you confusing me for someone else or what? My first post in this thread was the "really makes me think one" because some retard thinks Jesus was visited by ancient Buddhists just because there is a half assed similarity there when that same simimarity can be found all over.

As for the categories, they fit based on how the story is structured and the page gives examples. As always there is some debate, but you don't find all that many different types even from sources that disagree. And all things material CAN be summed up in that way. It won't help much, which is why we have scientific categories to break it down and be specific. But there is no need to be scientific when discussing a topic like story structure. These are just how stories are. You can further break them down by theme or whatever else, but that doesn't make the bigger categories irrelevant. And it still shows that stories being similar isn't exactly hard to imagine and we see it all the time even in cultures that had no connection to one another.
>>
>>53224794
My arm is not big enough for the jerk off motion in my soul.
>>
>>53224846

What are you refuting? Or are you the retard who thinks because two similar stories from different cultures seem similar then that must mean they are the same?

If you're the latter then go fuck yourself, because at that point given the lack of evidence for Jesus I can say he's a fucking myth because other figures and myths also had similar qualities to him.

I get that you're gonna believe what you want to believe, but you better have a better reason to believe it than "two stories vaguely line up if you make up a whole lot of baseless assumptions to connect the dots".
>>
>>53224909

Hell, I can use your logic too. I think that all the flood myths come from Poseidon punishing Atlantis. After all Socrates got the Atlantis story from the Egyptians, and everyone has a flood myth, so I bet the story ended with Zeus telling Poseidon to flood the world and this is shown in the old legends carried off by survivors of it.

See? I can make up baseless shit by comparing stories in different cultures too. But keep thinking Buddhists visited Jesus, you fucking mongoloid.

Literally no.
>>
>>53224998

And a further addendum to slap your shit theory down even further: Jesus was supposedly visited by three kings or magi depending on what translation you use. Neither description would fit Buddhists who refrained from worldly pleasures and lived in rags and begged for alms. The point of making it three kings was to make it seem like an honor or omen that Jesus got visited by them. It's not an honor to have people in rags look for you. So either the Bible is wrong or your theory is.

Not to mention at no point would Buddhists travel that far to find the reincarnation, nor was a star a sign of it nor would they revere him as a god because Buddhism is an atheistic philosophy that speaks of the Buddha as superior to gods because he transcended desire while gods did not. The point is not to revere gods at all. Nor does that line up with anything Jesus taught besides asceticism which is hardly enough to say they are the same. So, stick a fork in it. Either your book is wrong or your theory. Have fun deciding which one.

>>
>>53225634
its not so much a jewish thing as a rich/poor thing. Jews generally have nice neighborhoods, big houses, access to higher education, and good job prospects.

All these are things I don't have, but that white people USED to have, back when we still held a simple majority in America.

Our fates and fortunes are not intertwined, it seems jewish people are happy to eat while their neighbors starve.

When do jewish people reciprocate all the service we have given them? You are happy to have us staff your businesses and pay us a wage, but when that wage is unlivable, do you object?

Why must we constantly fight our own battles? Where is the jewish wealth, the jewish tenacity when it comes to protecting our freedoms and our rights?
>>
>>53225680
Christians ask so little. They ask to be treated fairly and take care of their families. They don't complain when your share of the pie is a little bigger than theirs.

But they can't live on scraps. We know you own every damn thing, we know you control the wealth and money supply.

Can't you leave people with something other than the clothes on their back? Can't you appreciate that other cultures have different values? Can't you pay us a wage that allows us to maintain our dignity?

>>53219635

...the question is, who the fuck taught YOU to fight golems? Because they were misinformed at best, or trying to get you fucking killed at worst.

The mark on their forehead just tells you who made the damn thing, like signing a painting. Which is important, because different craftsman have different standards and commands.

What makes the golem move is the holy scriptures wrapped up and stuck in its mouth. Which is why Golems can't talk, if they open their mouths the words will fall out and they die.

Which, as you can imagine, is damned inconvenient to try and get out of their mouth during a fight. Basically requires you to smash their face open, which they won't make easy.

Just stay out of this before you get yourself, or worse someone else, killed. Okay?

>>53224403
What they have in common is that they're all variants on THE story, the Hero's Journey, the format that people fall into when they tell stories about stuff that happened to a guy.

Pick a story. Preferably something deliberately simple with a lot of archetypal characters. That's the Hero's Journey. Star Wars is a good one.

"There I was, minding my own business, when suddenly..." is the first two steps of the Hero's Journey.

Real events tend to complicate the Hero's Journey, because it includes random events that don't fit the narrative. Against that, when people tell stories about real events, they tend to ignore or change details that don't fit the narrative.
