...wait a minute. wtf I thought he persecuted Jews? Somin don't add up here guys
Also first king of Israel was Saul...
Saul effectively jump starts and founds Christianity...
Seems kinda sus
Also on the subject of names
Jesus comes from Hebrew Yeshua. Which comes from Yehoshua which means "Yahweh is salvation". Seems like a funny name for the hero of the NT that was supposed to superceed the OT. Idk seems kinda sus bros
12 tribes...idk guys seems kinda sus considering that the 12 divisions of the zodiac were all the rage after 500BCE. Almost like they were trying to ride on top of an already preexisting religion...
Wait a minute...Ishmael had 12 sons also? 12 apostles even though the NT seems confused on this in various places. seems sus
Wait a minute...you mean to tell me that modern scholarship shows that the gospels were all written in the 80-120CE time frame, suspiciously right after the first roman-jewish war were they get their shit pushes in, the 2nd temple and Jerusalem destroyed, and there's considerable evidence that hints that they just backdated various scriptures and prophesies to give themselves an aura of legitimacy???
What a minute...so your telling me that Christianity was effectively a weapon against the martial spirit of the Romans and it ultimately just convinced everyone to admire and respect the Jews as being gods special chosen magical people who just want to do good and we should all let our guard down???
Wait a minute...so if Christianity was really the true religion then why did Rome falls 30 years after Christianity was declared the official state religion, what about god having their back???
Wait a minute...so your telling me that the Jews controlled the western end of the silk road and played middle man between the far east and Europe/middle east/Mediterranean???
I'm getting a little off track here but I'm on a roll. I'ma keep going
Wait a minute...your telling me Napoleon had already drawn up a decree granting the Jews a state in Palistine if he won his middle east adventure but it fell through at the last minute???
Hey wait minute... you're telling me the Latins claimed Saturn was the original ruler of their land and presided over a mythical golden age very similar to the garden of eden myth? And that the Romans had an alter dedicated to Saturn which predates the city as well as his temple at the head of the forum?
Wait a minute...your telling me that all the Catholic monarchs of pre Europe used Jews to handle their finances because their own religion forbade interest on loans thus allowing them to effectively make money from nothing
>>17845832Wait a minute...that would explain saturnalia
Wait a sec...so you guys are saying Edessa was somehow pivotal to all this but you haven't figured it out yet???
I'm getting the feeling that OP wants us to know the crucifixion of Jesus was just a rebranding of the scapegoat/sin transference ritual that you see at yom kippur. Blood sacrifice, how nice
>>17845832I don't know about no Saturn temple that predates Rome. Can I get sauce with that? But I do know Rome had a sun cult since it's founding. Long before Sol Invictus was a thing.
>>17845792there are plenty of Englishmen named William (or Alfred, for that matter)
founding a kingdom means people name their kids after you

>>17845816>it ultimately just convinced everyone to admire and respect the Jews as being gods special chosen magical peopleJews are the traitors in rebellion against God, they do not pay homage to their proper Lord, and so are damned. Supporting jews in any way is anti-christ, treason against God.
Time for your medication anon.
>>17845799Yeshua was a common name at the time.
"Yeshua bar Joseph" would be like "Michael Miller" today
>>17845788 (OP)There is no proof he actually persecuted christians on the orders of the sanhedrin
>>17845799"YHWH is salvation" is fitting for Jesus since according to Christianity, he is YHWH, and brings salvation to humans
