WISDOM LITERATURE: WHY CHOOSE BARBARIC SEMITIC SUPERSTITION OVER CULTURED GREEK

WISDOM LITERATURE: WHY CHOOSE BARBARIC SEMITIC SUPERSTITION OVER CULTURED GREEK REASON?
Judaism, Christianity, Islam. It’s still superstition. That doesn’t mean it isn’t wisdom. Superstition is the first ‘proto-logic’ available to the mind of man because it is the most anthropomorphic with the least knowledge of anything other than man required. One needs no knowledge, not experience, other than tribal and familial life to comprehend it.

The question is, why, in the past, or today, if you have the choice of Greek wisdom from 500bc, or the choice of jewish wisdom from 100ad, that is a counter revolution against greek wisdom, and where the bible was conceived as a competitor to the ‘gospel’ of the ancient world: the Epic Cycle, and where that competitor is trivially primitive in content and condition, would you choose that ancient wisdom literature over the wisdom of the Epic Cycle and epicurean, stoic, platonic, and aristotelian reason. Other than you can teach it to a population with an average iQ of 80 like the middle east instead of 100 like europeans.
