you can doubt all you want

the site was shit as well

so many fucking adds

Well then if Jews killed Jesus, fuck the Jews.

But why it would be Romans executing him then is beyond me.

I see what you mean.

Dunno, Rome persecuting Christianity seems really....contradictory from what I know of other religions citizens followed

christianity was adopted by rome 300 or so years after jesus's death

a fire in rome was supposedly blamed on christians

christians refused roman religious traditions such as sacrifice

To my knowledge, Christians blamed Nero for "fiddling" while Rome burned (he was a few miles away from Rome when the fire even happened IIRC), so the feeling was mutual if anything

Fucking Christians burning shit; should've left architectural and cultural destruction to the Muslims.

Doing a bit of research into it, the persecution of Christians is a tad overblown

https://theconversation.com/mythbusting-ancient-rome-throwing-christians-to-the-lions-67365

oh no question that it gets exaggerated. much of history does

Quite a bit, in fact

Throwing Christians to the Lions either:
A) Didn't happen
B) Wasn't unique to Christians

I'm gonna go with the latter just to be sure, though I vaguely remember somebody making a case for the former in a book I read

the only Imperial persecution of Christians seemed to have occurred over the span of approximately....63 years, from 250 AD (when Decius administered an Edict because he was a superstitious fuck who wanted to beat the Goths) to about 313 AD (the Edict of Milan, which overruled Decius' edict and mandated that citizens treat Christians nicely)

though the case could be made that that period of solely persecuting Christians was far shorter, from 303 to 306, during the reign of Diocletian

Regardless, if Jesus were a figment of the imagination of a Roman Emperor who decided to make sure the Jews couldn't get TOO out of hand, then it's not TOO far out of the question to assume that other Emperors simply didn't know (since there were a few emperors after the alleged life of Jesus that simply waltzed into Rome with an army, this seems the most likely reason why some later Emperors didn't know)

I'd think that if you're trying to subversively disseminate a new religion, it would require a network large enough that even if someone did a complete and fresh takeover, it'd be nigh impossible to do so without learning of the plan

Dunno, the truth is sometimes stranger than fiction

agreed

and a lot of the stuff we actually know about Jesus is from like the 2nd century AD iirc

to my knowledge, we don't have mention of a 'Jesus' from records of that time period

isn't Tacitus one of the first Roman accounts of Christianity?

I think so?
