    honestly i think he did pretty good

    i guess it’d be nice to try to explicitly say communism is cool constantly but idk if it would matter much in the end

      At which point? I’m guessing the crucifixion but it’d be a sick way to end the sermon on the mount or wrecking the temple.

      34 “Do not suppose that I [Jesus] have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. (Matthew 10:34)

      36 [Jesus] said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. (Luke 22:36)

      In the story he tried, didn’t work unfortunately

    I wouldn’t have sieged Leningrad, just surge rushed it and took it immediately.

    More seriously I would have done the thing Mohammed did and insisted upon not translating my word, so that it would be harder to corrupt (still allows for shit like including a bunch of discussion about my words, but at least the words are still there untouched). Also I’d hire a scribe or something to write things down in my time, so it would be definitive. And I’d talk a lot more about how being rich doomed you to hell, like he did in that book that’s no longer part of the main canon

      Luke-Acts is in general pretty clear about being rich carrying a distinct smell of sulphur.

      Guy who killed a bunch of christians until they became too popular: “g-guys! Trust me! I will invent catholicism and be the true successor of Jesus!”

        The Roman empire basically adopted Christianity in the same way the FBI tweeted a celebratory tweet on MLK day.

        Thinking about what would have happened to Catholicism if the Johannine Middle Platonists and mystics hadn’t mostly supplanted Pauline Christology in the late 2nd century and it’s not a good feeling.
