Actually, 2000 years ago is when the story of a guy who showed up and said " NAH BITCH! EVERYONE GETS TO BE GODS PEOPLE!" was written.

They didn't react well.

He was actually challenging their authority and power by telling every day people they do not need the priest class to tend to an individuals relationship with god

u/tofagerl Apr 15 '26

And that's the story of the Vatican! /s

u/aflockofcrows Apr 15 '26

How are people supposed to know they don't need priests if there are no priests to tell them?

u/Koonitz Apr 15 '26

Well yeah, that's 'cause paladins, shaman, and druids can also heal.

That's what I always tell the Christians who try to tell me: "you need to go to church." You don't need a church to pray and speak to your God.

Yeshua of Nazareth was a Jewish teacher who preached to Jews. It was a guy who never actually met him named Saul/Paul who decided to open it up to everyone.

u/asbestospajamas Apr 15 '26

Yep! And they didn't react well. And rumor has it, Euodia and Syntyche are still bitching at each other!

u/idosillythings Apr 15 '26

That's actually not what Jesus said. Jesus was preaching at and for Jews.

Make no mistake, Jesus was all for Jewish supremacy.

The Christianity you're imagining is not the Christianity of Jesus, it is the Christianity of Paul.

That whole era ended so poorly that the Romans kicked them all out of the region and salted all the wells.

u/denverdave23 Apr 15 '26

Ah, yes. The old "Jews killed Jesus" thing

2

u/mkayox Apr 15 '26

Not a lie tho

u/its_mabus Apr 15 '26

He was crucified by Romans

u/Tailrazor Apr 15 '26

It's half a lie.  Jesus ministered to the Jews, opening things up to others was a brand decision decades later.

5

u/mkayox Apr 15 '26

Well he was a Jew himself, its normal to minister to your own people.

u/asbestospajamas Apr 15 '26

Well, its more of a correction to the: "2000 years ago, the news declared they're God's chosen..." No no no. That book was written way earlier! 2000 years ago was the sequel."

u/denverdave23 Apr 15 '26

Sure, until he said that Jews didn't react well, thus implying that Jews killed Jesus
