>Plato is from an Iron Age Hellenic culture, which is significantly younger than anything from Mesopotamia.
How fortunately for us, that Bible has actually little to do with actual Mesopotamia.
Must be a hell of coincidence, to have so much common with greeks, right?

I am not kidding, you need to know about the Greeks first, in order to comprehend that book.

>The television and MSM they worship forbids them from studying the bible
Actually, the surest way to stop worship the bible, is to get the proper historical context on the bible. Instead of some ultimate source of truth, it becomes mere "platonism for the poor".

>learn a few more Semitic languages
And apparently Ancient Near Eastern texts are all bereft of the legislation problems, that one can find both in the bible and the Greek texts. Oy.

>All cultures develop these
And all cultures apparently steal greek legislation, too. Totally a coincidence.
