It’s not really that relevant as a detail

Why mute the atheist? Youre giving him less reason to be convinced by you

I used to be a hardcore atheist myself

Even antitheist

Im interested in the lesser known Jesus stories

Me too, but only reasonable people listen to reason @Deleted User

Yes, but he didnt show any signs of being unreasonable @Simmons ☧

Well he came right out the gate with “religious people are brainwashed”

So?

Tell me obscure Jesus facts

It’s impossible to have good faith conversations with people who think you have no critical thinking

@Suit Dog Sure let me think of one

He fasted for 40 days and nights in the wilderness, while being tempted by Satan the whole time.

And conversed with him

He ate hemp seeds @Suit Dog

I know of the desert one just not the details. I have not hears of the hemp seeds one

Lynch satanists

CHRIST GANG

I know about when he punished that tree for nothing

And it died

Well a little bit of expansion on it then - Satan offered Him all the kingdoms on earth in return for worshiping him.

@Suit Dog Oh, that’s a parable, meant as a lesson for His apostles

Correction: he used hemp oil to heal people.

He wiped His spit in a blind man’s eyes to heal them.

He used this method because ancient Israelites believed spit had some healing properties they’d spit (their *own* spit) into their wounds following this superstition.

I’d find it offensive for someone to spit in my eyes personally but if I was blind at I could suddenly see after it I would be buzzing

I wish Jesus would heal my astigmatism

Here’s another, Jesus didn’t have a surname and neither did most Israelites. “Christ” is a title derived from a Greek phrase meaning *”the anointed One”* - equivalent to *Messiah*

Now that's something I didn't know

I did not know they did not have surnames

Most cultures didn’t have surnames for a while, we only started adopting them en masse later on.

That's why their names are always like "Steve of xyz" because they used where they're from to identify themselves right

Exactly

That or patronymics, where they’d be distinguished by their fathers name. So “Robert John’s son”

Which became “Johnson”

In Wales we did the same, if your name was Dafydd and your father was called Gruffydd your full name would be ‘Dafydd ap Gruffydd’

Welsh is amazing

Its got quite the reputation

I speak it, one of 500,000 that can.

Wooow

I guess its probably rarer than being able to speak Sanskrit or the like
