Which one has people knocking on my door again?

[–] itisileclerk@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

For fuck sake, blond Jesus? This is (one of many) proof(s) that they are worshiping imaginary god and his son. They imagine the son with blond hair, I am guessing speaking English and talking about America.

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Blond Jesus has a way more toxic following than Historically Accurate Jesus.

Lol Anton LeVay was such an edgy loser

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 4 points 6 hours ago

I don't know but I find number three wildly amusing. Some parts of my former edgy 16 year old libertarian atheist refuse to die.

3 Belief in or acknowledgment of a satan just reinforces and legitimizes christianity.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

LaVeyan satanists aren't deistic, they don't actually believe in Satan.

7 Apophis - once an extremely powerful Goa'uld System Lord. Arch enemy of the Tau'ri, he impersonated the ancient Egyptian deity of chaos, darkness and fire.

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 13 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Apophis is a false god. Say it with me, it’s what you really believe.

You will pay for your insolence. With your life.

[–] renzhexiangjiao@piefed.blahaj.zone 17 points 10 hours ago

if we're talking about lemmy, it's Stalin

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 13 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Jesus, by far. The people who have been murdered in his name is probably close to or over a good billion, right?

He's not really a "foundational figure of Christianity" though, his image was just co-opted by the Roman empire which then created the religion also co-opting the actual "Jewish revival" Jesus was at the core of (bringing the fundamentals of monotheism back into mind and expanding the teachings to everyone, not just a small select community).

[–] realitista@lemmus.org 2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Not disputing you but I'd be interested in how you arrived at this count.

Completely eyeballed it but I included every Western imperialist project that was done with Bible in hand and chanting variations of "Deus Vult", so that's large chunks of Asia, most of Africa, all of Latin America, and every Western incursion on West Asia from the Crusades to Iran today. And let's not forget the pagan persecution in the West itself by the Romans. That's a shit ton of people through the ages, right?

I feel the inclusion of Jesus does this list a disservice, could have been like a Buddha, Mohamed, Jesus.... List and I think that would have been better because of the league Jesus is playing in. Basically skews the list.

But the first 5 in the list is an awesome list to choose from. I would say Rasputin due to the shit show Russia was going to be put through that I feel he was the straw that broke the camel's back and led to cascading events I feel still persists

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 1 points 8 hours ago

How large a fan base do most of these have? Should have used Count of St. Germain rather then Jesus, though.

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 32 points 16 hours ago

Taken per capita, probably LaVey. Taken as "Total harm done" it's Jesus, no contest

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 9 points 12 hours ago

Of the top: Catholicism, evangelicalism, Mormonism, Jehovah’s witnesses,…

I mean this list goes on and on. They all have one guy in common.

[–] IntriguedIceberg@lemmy.world 12 points 13 hours ago

I'd argue that by mere statistic, Jesus wins this one.

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 23 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Jesus while he lived or modern? cause that's two completely different groups of people.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 26 points 16 hours ago (1 children)
[–] humminglady@feddit.online 15 points 16 hours ago

I would honestly agree. The fanfiction is getting out of hand.

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 13 points 14 hours ago

Jesus has trump so, jesus

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 10 points 14 hours ago

Anton LaVey's crowd are chill as hell. Just a little cringe but whomst amogus has not had notions of doing catholic mass naked except for a mask and a cape?

[–] Devconsole@sh.itjust.works 10 points 14 hours ago (1 children)
[–] mlg@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago

Agreed

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

Underdale and Deltatune for sure

[–] humminglady@feddit.online 11 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

This is a terrifying post to comment on

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 10 points 15 hours ago

[controversial reply with a healthy mix of upvotes and downvotes that’s ambiguous enough that you’re not sure if they’re serious, confused, or bad at sarcasm]
