they are reading shiva back onto the aryan god

Well, maybe not Shiva

just as the greeks did

but certainly aspects of Shiva

reading mercury onto odin

the deity that became shiva

it would be like going back to ancient greece, not knowing anything, seeing jupiter enthroned and presuming that's where jesus enthroned in heaven came from

and the answer is yes

I can see them adopting Latin artwork, it makes sense

>greece
>jupiter

Jagganath is considered an aspect of Shiva

they stole Hermes for angles and cupid for cherub art

yeah right dangerous dan

he is definitely an older, local god

of tribal people

no they're actually cupids

or nikes

even in medieval christian art

handing out laurel crowns of victory

jeebus has that power

I mean they use them from greek mythology

I thought cherubs lead to the popular envisioning of cupid

rather than the other way round

I cannot tell cupid apart from the christian depictions based on old roman art

maybe I'm misremembering

cupids tug at the heels of kings as kings are descended from venus

the winged smaller angels are something different

Cupid delux

I notied Hermes is their version of an angel

as angel means 'winged messenger' in Iranian

hermes is a god

they use the exact same art

i forgot who presents the crowns of victory from nike

@infinitycoda \m/

but anyway, I am just supporting what you said about christians adopting greco-roman art style

they adopted greco roman almost everything

like I said, it is essentially a bastard religion

churches are modeled after roman basilicas where you go up and crawl toward the emperor

early cathedrals essentially are roman temples from what I understand

the temples were abandoned. they are impeerial basilicas

where you meet the emperor's personal god: jesus
