Coronation

Wow. The coronation of King Charles III on Saturday will feature a processional cross containing what are said to be two pieces of the cross on which Jesus was crucified. Pope Francis recently gave the pieces to the new British monarch.
That is the real purpose of Christianity - to legitimatize monarchs. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/05/05/...ists-cross
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Mark Twain once reckoned that if all the pieces of the True Cross in Christian shrines were legit, Jesus must have been nailed to a plank about 60 feet high. Boru

If all the holy nails were legit, Jesus would have had more holes in him than a sponge.

Who has watched the coronation?
I'd be more interested if the royal men were more attractive.
