If you believe that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute, then I think Jesus would have been cool with a porn star. That said, adultery and embezzlement/theft were things he was definitely not cool with.
PS: There is a Christian conspiracy theory that postulates that Mary Magdalene was Jesus' lover or a very important figure in the fight against the establishment, but because that lessened the mythology of Jesus and empowered women, she was edited to be a removed that Jesus rescues rather than a woman he admired.
It's not a conspiracy theory. It's based off the lost gospels that were found in the Nag Hammadi Library [The Gnostics]. This theory might be from the Gospel of Mary but it might be another one.

Comparing Trump to Jesus... imagine being that delusional.

It’s a nested cult within one or more cults depending on the individual.

Or we could skip the crucifixion and bury him hoping he'd revive after 3 days.

To bury him again, I hope?

Doesn't their book say something about false idols?

Yeah, something about gold plated ribeye steaks if I remember correctly.

Did Jesus also commit adultery with a porn star, use campaign funds to hush it up and then lie about it?
Or does the analogy not carry that far?

It’s from the Gospel of St. Thomas.

Right you are! Only drop the Saint. The Gnostics believed in self-actualization not in divine intervention.

Yes but he’s typically referring to as St. Thomas or Doubting Thomas.

By Catholics. The reformers don't believe in Sainthood.
dpkonofa@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
What does that have to do with anything? It’s meant as a clarification. Catholics don’t believe that the book was actually written by him either.

I read “embezzlement” in your comment and for some reason, my brain shouted “enshizzlement” instead. Not sure what it’s trying to tell me.

And cannibalism RP
JoMiran@lemmy.ml · 6 pts · 2y
You are assuming that when Jesus asked his followers to eat his flesh, he meant cannibalism.

If I recall correctly, Jesus accepted the sentence without profuse whining.
