Don't apologize, you're spot on.

To put it simply, the don't like the teachings of Jesus. What they want is a metaphysical justification for oppressing other people. It's a tool of the privileged and the powerful - the very ones Jesus spoke out against. :)

Yeah I recently got into reading my bible more and so far I love what I'm reading about Jesus and his teachings. I think he'd be very upset if he had to meet most of his "followers", though.

Jesus-from-Matthew (you know, the one written closest to the alleged events) is definitely my least-disliked NT main character.

Too bad Jesus-from-John (and fucking Paul) are who actually gets worshipped.

The bit where Matthew-Jesus says that preachers are like whitewashed tombs, shining on the outside and crawling with the most disgusting filth on the inside... 🧑🏼‍🍳🤌🏼

Mark is the generally-recognized first Gospel to be written, from which Matthew and Luke get some of their material

Ah thank you for the correction.

Sorry Chaplain Lent, I made you look bad in front of Lemmy.
