This is more a mythology meme instead of a history meme though.
Mythology is fine. Mythology is part of historical cultures. We have Zeus and Prometheus and memes of that sort too.
My man, mythology is fine AF. Have you even SEEN Helen of Troy?!?!
she's a babe
I heard she walks like a gunslinger
Fair enough I guess.
Kind of but early Christians did really change their names after joining the faith. Famous example being Saul/Paul who was probably more influential on Christianity than Jesus himself.
Even God did it. Set/Ba'al to Yehwah.
It took me a minute to parse your second phrase; I thought it was a pseudo terminal command.
sed 's/baal/yahweh/'It's templeOS' version for 'set path' (/s) (yes, templeOS is something that exists)
Fucking Paul completely screwed up Jesus intentions
I blame him for breaking up the Beatles, too!
That was ~~Judas~~ Yoko
As often said, no academic argues Jesus was not a historical figure. Only militant terminally online atheists do.
I'm not talking about whether Jesus existed or not. The bible is not a historic accord is what I'm saying.
Still, Simon/Peter could just as fine be as real as the person historically named Jesus. Assuming Jesus wasn't talking to imaginary friends all day.
That’s not their point. Their point is the Bible isn’t a reliable source.
Got you, no argument against that
