It remains a mystery to me why every year people celebrate 'Passover', since it is obviously the celebration of a massive infanticide of Egyptian children. Isn't that obvious, or have most people not even thought about it?

Most people aren't of that faith which goes a long way (wandering and wondering) to explain why they don't celebrate the tenth putative plague of the exodus myth.

It's only obvious to those that have been blessed with biblical bodhi on the matter.

People from another abrahamic atrocity are either unaware or too busy with other bullshit to be bothered with this minor distraction to the glorification of god the son.

It is the basis for slaying all the Jedi children yet few understand this "truth" of passover. People have no idea what they're doing. Atheist wishing people a happy easter. OMG!

Archeology provides no validation for Passover. It is a myth with no actual historical basis. The infanticide never happened, but it certainly speaks poorly of Judaism. It's a grisly story meant to provide cohesion within the cult.

The story itself is absurd with many contradictions. Supposedly god sanctions the infanticide of the Egyptian children. But per the OT, god promotes or commits mass murder elsewhere, sometimes as fiction, sometimes probably based on an actual event. Ugly, primitive folklore.

Most, if not all, of both Testaments are full of stolen stories or flat out mistruths.

Hello and welcome. Yes it does seem quite immoral does it not, they also don't seem to notice, that god sent a "Satan" to do the deed. Which raises the two other questions. When did Satan become singular, and stop being "a" satan, as in one of many, and when did he stop taking orders ? And if he was still taking orders in the Egyptian Passover, why do some people think that he was the same person as the snake in the garden of Eden, and if, as some think, the snake was only a snake and was only persuading them to do what god wanted anyway, then why was the snake punished ? Does any of this make sense to you ? LOL
