lol indeed. I know, the irony, right?
The irony is that you live in a time where the ruling class has almost fully switched from using Christianity to Science as the preferred population control technique, and yet believe that Rome did not co-opt Christianity
I think you're compressing the history here, like it was a flipping of a switch, to go from the persecutions, to Constantine's Edit of Milan (making Christianity legal, but not the state religion) to Julian the Apostate trying to bring pagan worship back, to the empire split down the middle with the Arian Heresy (including the church hierarchy) to the final victory of Christianity over pagan Rome with Theodosius towards the end of the empire in the west. A metric fuck-ton of history. Not to mention the fact that the barbarians that came in basically required missionaries, primarily Irish ones, to reconvert the remnants of the Western Empire.
You can make comparisons to today, but frankly, they're not very apt.
How is anything I said compressing history? Do you know what co-opt means?
Because your ignorance on the subject is so profound, that you think what was an existential cultural struggle that took centuries was a "co-opt" job.
The romans hired josephus the jew to write some bible.
Fast forward the britking did a rewrite with 3 teams at cambridge, oxford and westminster, and a few of those editors died young.
Josephus was a jew historian. None of his work bears any resemblance to the Bible. Moreover, the Bible wasn't codified until well after Christianity was already the major religion of the empire in the mid-late 300s, so if the Romans were paying Josephus to do the work, they sure did it kinda late.
So, you're making shit up, and making yourself look silly in the process.
The gospels were written by their names as authors. Luke also wrote Acts of the Apostles. John, while exiled on the island of Patmos, wrote the Book of Revelation. Paul wrote, or dictated almost all of his letters; based on writing style perhaps some notes or other letters of his got amalgamated in a couple instances.
The gnostic gospels, like the one supposedly written by Thomas, have vintage that couldn't be trusted, and were thus excluded.
Jesus christ.
This is a conspiracy website.
Not repeating "accepted doctrine".

Im not gonna post a book's worth of blah blah.
Josephus Flavius as a co-opted jew writing a cynical new testament for his roman patrons is a well researched theory.

And for the record. Jesus as the good guy...yeah. Real or tulpa... He's a nice guy. I like Him. I'm voting for Him if he runs against Castreau.
alltheleavesarebrown, while this is a conspiracy site, there has been more research into New Testament bible authorship than virtually any topic on earth. Secularists wish to undermine, and theologians look for holes to plug. Turns out, the accepted wisdom is largely correct. You drop some links here, like that's going to undermine centuries of research. It's funny, really it is.
