• It was the Nazi’s very own flavour of Christianity, now with 100% less reference to Jews~!

        Under Hitler’s regime, in the Reich Protestant churches the New Testament was also altered; by removing the genealogies of Jesus that showed his Davidic descent, Jewish names and places were removed, quotations from the Old Testament were removed unless they showed Jews in a bad light, references to fulfilled Old Testament prophecies were removed, and Jesus was reworked into a militaristic, heroic figure fighting the Jews using Nazified language.

            • You don’t need to tell me! I was born into a Christian cult, which made me an “apolitical” extremist-right winger, LGBTQphobe, sexist, and whatnot. And me being capable to change, made me in the completest opposite of that, or at least I aim to be. I’m no longer an LGBTQ phobic sexist asshole, of course.

          I’m completely devastated right now. Everyone should know Jesus was a Pole? Right? RIGHT?

          Except maybe some heretics saying he was a Russian and was named Jesus Ipanienko (according to polish christmas carol).

            • Which is super funny, that they portray it so mythical when it was allegedly during his time on Earth as a living man lmao.

              I think people don’t get the Ieus Rex part lol

                • Iueus*, sorry. “Jewish” in Latin.

                  Yet the character was described as “son of man”, and… Oh, sorry, I forgot the many contradictions in the Evangelions.

                  • Yet the character was described as “son of man”, and…

                    I wasn’t really implying that he might’ve had supernatural powers. I was more so referring to the times when he did deeds like putting rich people in their place and feeding the hungry; despite just being a carpenter.

                    How many people do you think in his time was capable of doing that?

              But surely… he was not… a Jew? And even if he was a Jew, the jewish god is also not… jewish???

              Just what our continent did in the last two millenia?

                Well, at the very least we can’t deny that Jesus is of Middle Eastern origin. He could’ve been Jewish, I can’t say; as Bethelhem (where he was born) is part of Palestine; and I honestly don’t know if Historical Palestine had Jews in it.

                CW: Personal Criticism of Christianity and the Abrahimic God's Origins

                As for the Abrahimic God, well, it turns out that he was just one of the deities of a Pagan Religion. The God of War, in fact. (No, it’s not Kratos unfortunately; it’s Yahweh). And this was before Judaism was a thing, too, so, I guess technically he’s not Jewish???

                Though honestly all this has probably happened simply because Mary Magdalene had secretly cheated on Joseph; and then - in order to avoid execution, lied when she gave birth to Jesus; claiming that she didn’t fuck anyone and that it was simply a miracle birth. And people just bought it.

                The three guys that showed up at her doorstep to give her gifts were probably people that she fucked dated at some point in her life; or at the very least, were her simps.

                  Yeah newer archeology finds strongly suggest that exodus never happened, ancient Hebrews were just one of the canaanite tribes that gained domination over their region and per usual for that time and place, placed their own tribal deity over all others. Notably the most popular local god of harvest, and natural cycle Baal (all the vilification of Baal in bible was certainly scrap of that propaganda left). Yahweh even stole Baal name, meaning only “Lord”. Yahweh being god of war also fits by all accounts. Judaism was formed after ancient state of Israel fell so that’s how the victorious god of war gets to hate his people, they just lost lmao. And most texts were compliled at their lowest point as independent culture, in Babylon, which also explains some peculiarities - city rabbis living in richest city in the world were depicting the past they couldn’t really imagine.

                  About Mary and Joseph it starts to click if you would assume she was not just a poor girl but daughter of a local notable - she get pregnant (Pantera? lol maybe, he did existed, his tombstone was found) in a tender age of 13 or 14, scandal is brewing, but her family found her an older and respected guy to marry, Joseph, who would take the child for his own. Some hand polishing later the Holy Family is created (now that is sheer assumption by me without single proof but probably better than the official version).

                  The three guys that showed up at her doorstep to give her gifts were probably people that she fucked dated at some point in her life; or at the very least, were her simps.

                  XD local pedo convention, how did this turned to 3 kings.

                    Unbelievable. Imagine demonizing a deity of something as harmless and peaceful as harvest and natural cycle.

                    Judaism was formed after ancient state of Israel fell so that’s how the victorious god of war gets to hate his people, they just lost lmao

                    There’s nothing more pathetic than a so-called deity hating their own worshippers. Couldn’t he help his worshippers out? Being a god of war and all.

                    Also, if Mary indeed was the daughter of a local noble, wouldn’t her parents be able to just use their connections/power/money to just get her out of trouble? But then again I suppose not, as this was from the times where women were barely considered human for whatever reason.

                    XD local pedo convention, how did this turned to 3 kings.

                    They were kings? o.o

                  • I think Yahweh and Jesus were two different figures (as to my knowledge I don’t recall Jesus preaching about war that much), but I didn’t know he was a god of Metallurgy. All I knew about him was that he was a God of War.
