gritty jesus story reboot, or maybe an apostle, its not very important tbh

same schlock as normal, pale jesus, middle east color filter over everything, but we have a big war and revisionist history where say, the new christians aid the Bar Kokhba revolt (just like israel :so-true:) and lots and lots of excessive persecution scenes of christians getting crucified and fed to lions and shit

itd be really great because it could fabricate parrallels between modern 'persecution' christian chuds like to pretend they're suffering under 'historical' pretenses. it could narratively support israel from a christian imperial view. it could be klansman racist and have it excused through 'history'. and finally, western libs uncritically support pro christian narratives even when they nominally identify as not. jesus is not political

e: omg and have the syrians (brown folks helping the romans against the revolt) doing the stabbing terrorist warfare the Kokhba rebels did, but against the rebels and christians
