If you think that's semantics that just proves to me you don't know much about atheism
You don't say "Jesus may not have been magic" you say "Jesus don't real."
Yeah, Jesus wasn't real
You outright deny history,
No, I deny a story
You deny the ROman Empire.
I don't
I think Jesus might have been real, but was just either a scapegoat or -as is historical- a martyr, blown way beyond proportion.
Not that it matters, Christians clearly don't give a fuck about Jesus
??
Jesus is the center of Christianity, right after God
You might as well say Richard Dawkins isn't real, because his books are bullshit too
Supposedly
Not supposedly
But they do not follow any of his action or teaching
And if I don't agree with someone's books being factual that means they aren't real
They simply follow a new testament of god, written after Jesus
Of course they don't follow his actions or teachings
A lot of which was quite anti-Jesus
They're human
The principles of Christianity became the most successful in the world, so, wether or not Jesus' stories in the bible are utterly accurate or not, they did do the job of spreading like a wildfire. Presumably because they satisified a need or two in the inception.
Because you can just make up stuff like that can't you?
Well who wouldn't support a godly figure who came down and - in his story - taught humans to just respect and provide for each other, and not cast judgement lightly?
It's all one big conspiracy right?
Not a conspiracy, just dogma
No it has to be a conspiracy
Why?
Well, the Romans did tend to conspire.
Quite a lot.
It has to be a bigger conspiracy than anything else in the world
Why?
You never see a conspiracy this big that didn't get busted by one of the original members.
Do you know how cults start?
Not even Communist reprogramming got past the radar.
Christianity was outlawed in the initial days. Martyrdom was the starting point of Christianity. Makes sense for Jesus to be displayed as a Martyr.
Truth is too important to people.
oof
Screenshotting that one, too
Why?
The Ramen Empire will Triumph! praise kek
