Jews for most of their history in Canaan, but according to biblical legend their ancestors originated in Mesopotamia.

Genetic testing seems to reveal that they are closely related to their west Semitic neighbors but also to Turks, Armenians, Kurds, Italians and Greeks, which is not shared as much by their levantine cousins like syrians, lebanese, palestinians. It is normally suggested that this comes from communities of converts in one of these countries, but their Mesopotamian origin is overlooked as an explanation for their genetic affinities with Turks, Kurds, Armenians and Caucasians. Mesopotamian are believed by historians to have originated in vicinity of turkey, the Armenian highlands, and its even been speculated some of them could have migrated from caucasian places like georgia.

Pic slightly unrelated because they're Samaritans, close relatives of jews who don't share the more central asian genetic affinities

first off the claim is that Abraham is from Ur so that would specifically be Sumerians, not general Mesopotamians. we have little reason to believe the Jews and all other Israelites were anything besides Canaanites. There is little evidence to support the biblical account of Genesis. It has at least two things in it that don't fit the supposed time period of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob: the Philistines who didn't settle in Canaan until the end of the bronze age and camels which hadn't been domesticated yet. Also the Hebrew language is very closely related to the language of the Phoenicians, in fact arguably they got their alphabet from the Phoenicians. This doesn't necessarily prove genetic ties but it shows that there is no cultural continuity between Hebrews and their supposed Sumerian origins. They spoke a Canaanite language and worshiped Canaanite gods. When Abraham was visited by God, he didn't go by any name known by Sumerians as a god or even a name with Sumerian origins. God went by the name El Shaddai, which is Western Semitic in origin

What is exactly wrong with ideological inconsistansy or hypocrisy? Calling someone a hypocrite if the situation allows it is almost mandatory in arguments buy rarely does anyone go into detail why exactly hypocrisy is wrong.

Thoughts?

Hypocrisy is wrong insofar as someone claims to both believe in some principle and believe that they are permitted to do something that the principle prohibits. It's basically living a contradiction.

>>1037520

But could you give me logically sound reasoning as to why being self contradictory is wrong? How is it for example harmful?
>>
The search for knowlege is the search for absolute truth

Absolute truth is absolute, if there are any contridictions than it is inconsistent and incorrect by definition

Arguments are there to attempt to get closer to the truth, if one is inconsistent their logic is flawed and they should seek to figure out how to iron out the inconsistancy in their logic
