Probably more if one assumes their pyramids are representation of volcano.
Makes sense now and the all seeing eye at the top of the pyramid/volcano is where the wrath and fire and brimstone is coming from and the white hair of god (smoke). So half the world is praying only to a rather insignificant albeit scary god of destruction… LOLQuote:

Most of their relgion's holidays are celebration of previous acts of terror and war against their neighbors!
And their foundational volcano god story is about infiltrating the government in Egypt and misdirecting its civil service staff to plague and destroy and democide its own Nation and citizen!
Explained in the most popular book in the world!

I also wanted to include a clip of DC Politicians doing one of their multiple wild cheering standing ovation sub servant rituals to a volcano god representative but Youtube and Google today are offering me only two relevant search results, one without working sound, the other too long.
Bertrand Russell wrote of Marxism and post Jesus Christian manipulation as related.

Augustine’s primary talent lay in bringing together the “sacred and profane history” of the Old Testament and relating it to the history of his time in “such a way that the fall of the Western Empire, and the subsequent period of confusion, could be assimilated by Christians without any unduly severe trial of their faith,” goes on to say:
The Jewish pattern of history, past and future, is such as to make a powerful appeal to the oppressed and unfortunate at all times. St. Augustine adapted this pattern to Christianity, Marx to Socialism. To understand Marx psychologically, one should use the following dictionary:
Yahweh = Dialectial Materialism
The Messiah = Marx
The Elect = The Proletariat
The Church = The Communist Party
The Second Coming = The Revolution
Hell = Punishment of the Capitalists
The Millennium = The Communist Commonwealth
Quote:
Christianity, I will admit, does less harm than it used to do; but this is because it is less fervently believed. Perhaps, in time, the same change will come over Communism; and, if it does, that creed will lose much of what now makes it obnoxious. But if in the West the view prevails that Christianity is essential to virtue and social stability, Christianity will once again acquire the vices which it had in the Middle Ages; and, in becoming more and more like Communism, will become more and more difficult to reconcile with it.
It is not along this road that the world can be saved from disaster. It is not to a revival of fanaticism and bigotry that humanity must look for a happy issue. Such a revival, if it occurs, will only mean that the hateful features of the Communist régime have become universal.
What the world needs is reasonableness, tolerance, and a realization of the interdependence of the parts of the human family. This interdependence has been enormously increased by modern inventions, and the purely mundane arguments for a kindly attitude to one’s neighbour are very much stronger than they were at any earlier time. It is to such considerations that we must look, and not to a return to obscurantist myths. Intelligence, it might be said, has caused our troubles; but it is not unintelligence that will cure them. Only more and wiser intelligence can make a happier world."
Perhaps it was wrong to use judaism/volcanism as foundation for Christianity? It seems like a stretch to build a religion of love on that foundation of death and destruction.Quote:

More interesting analysis of Christian and Jewish scripture further exploring the topic of the Haaretz article in post #12 above.
thetorah.com: YHWH: The Kenite God of Metallurgy
Quote:
As these texts show, volcanism seems to be an essential attribute typically associated with YHWH. The account of the Sinai revelation, with its volcanic imagery, is meant to show that YHWH himself, and not simply a divine emissary, was present during the revelation, and concluded himself the covenant transforming the Israelites into his people...
The connection of YHWH with the Midianites may justify the exploitation of the volcanic imagery by the Israelites for accounting for the divine presence, but the connection of YHWH specifically to the Kenites challenges the assumption of an Arabian origin of YHWH, and points us in a different direction, given the Kenites’ metallurgical activity...
The association between volcanoes and smelting is easy to understand. Both volcanoes and furnaces release a similar sulfurous smell and smoke. In antiquity, smelting (metal production from ore) was the only human activity involving stone melting. Just as lava flows out of a volcano, slag flows out of an active furnace, and the slag, once solidified, resembles volcanic stones (basalt). This homology is visible in the description of the Sinai revelation, where the column of smoke rising from Sinai is likened כְּעֶשֶׁן הַכִּבְשָׁן “with the smoke of a furnace” (Exod 19:18).
Copper Mining
The consistent use of volcanic imagery in portraying YHWH’s appearance denotes a substantial metallurgical background attached to his former identity...
Once we understand that YHWH was formerly identified as the god sponsoring metallurgy in the Southern Levant, many other elements of his biblical persona fall into place...
