I don't think this word means what you think it means... what is "copium" about discussing possible origins of dogma?

OP is literally saying "this widespread institutionally-reinforced religious practice/dietary restriction could all be due to a mistranslation", what exactly are they coping with?

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 1 points 54 minutes ago (1 children)

The copium is coming up for excuses for why religious stuff doesn’t make sense. There is no one on the face of the earth that can reconcile passages from religious texts such as these. Sometimes data and dogma can not be reconciled and you just need to take things in faith.

I... uh.... what? This still isn't how words work.

I repeat:

what exactly are they coping with?

Who is coping here? With what? It's... an athiest coping with a lack of faith? A jewish person coping with flaws in their religious law?

There is no one on the face of the earth that can reconcile passages from religious texts such as these.

Uh... way to just miss the point of the entire religion.

All of Judaism - down to their goddamn rite of manhood - is built upon literacy. Reading and interpreting the will of God. Scholarly analysis of their own texts - reconciling the word with the world - is literally the foundation of their entire religion.

Given how many homographs and other homonyms English has (and presumably other languages, I've definitely seen one Hebrew homograph when vowels are removed), it doesn't sound like a complete stretch for this to be a similar homonym situation.
