I got the idea from putting two and two together of the practical implications of and historical ramifications of the Edict of Thessalonica. It's common sense.
So you're saying that the people who lived and interacted with Jesus totally f'd up everything about him, who he was, what he taught and etc, while those who never met him or interacted with him knew him best? If that's the case, then Jesus really screwed them over since he knew their thoughts and all and didn't bother to help them.
And you're not capable of a rational discussion. I put the Gentiles were too pagan to understand who and what Jesus was. You claimed I had that exactly backwards. I'm assuming from that you mean it went that the Jews were too Jewish to understand Jesus.
I think that common argument coming from Christians is ridiculous because Jesus is supposed to have known people's thoughts, and if all the people that lived around him and talked with him just did a complete 180 and bastardized everything he stood for and taught, and had no clue who he was. Then Jesus would've really screwed up.
Prove it wrong then. If it sound like I have 0 common sense, then it shouldn't be hard for you to provide something of substance against what I say right?
Absolutely false. You got that idea from The DaVinci Code, not history.
You have this exactly backwards. You fail at theology, too.

You have no idea about any of this. It also sounds like you have absolutely 0 common sense.

Assume and you make an ass out of both you and me.
I did not say what you only assume, nor would I ever be that stupid.
Try actually reading what's written, without assuming anything. You'll never gain any understanding of the Bible without that skill.
