I don’t have the energy to go through it. Buts the someone else can see what he’s saying? And dunk on it?

    Christianity as a term and as a concept was literally invented by Constantine to describe the state ideology of Rome. Jesus H. Christ himself never used the terms Christian or Christianity. That was Constantine. The gnostic cults around Christ were co-opted by Constantine to legitimize his own rule. Why would anyone use such a term to describe himself? If you are not a fucking lunatic Constantinist, that is? Which is what most of these ppl are, apparently. Checkmate Christians.

    whoops this one is actually a better argument now that I've completely recontextualized it and added a spicy dash of my own historical revisionism, but in all seriousness what the fuck kinda quarter-baked points are these?

        I changed the words around in the same quote you were responding to from the top-level comment, so it's a heavily-edited version of a youtube comment on a V*ush video
