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

I saw some in italy that were modified buildings

who's will is one and teh same with the emperor as the emperor is the emperor as he is the most virtuous just like jesus

\m/

alright, that is probably it

DO you want to play a game, @infinitycoda ?

all of this is a catch 22

what

I'll play the first 5 seconds of something, and you have to tell me what it is

which is hte point

i knew you'd say tit

that

Or less

well ok
