Watch Reza Aslan Pick and Choose Which "Facts" He Thinks Are Real

Well...he makes a buck out of selling this stuff to the gullible. Pretty much makes him the same as the pope or any of those asshole xtian preachers.

Its like no shit hj was a zealot that is what got hj killed.
Also the bible is not good for telling his story anyways because people at that time didn't know how to read or write.
So the whole bible and its stories are pretty much just made up about jesus being magic when he was some ordinary dude
questioning the Roman powers at be that got him killed and pretty much the only reason.

Except the only story we have is one of the miracle-working godboy. Aslan - and frankly all the others - pick what they like out of the mess and try to write their own story.

The only good thing that can be said about that is that it makes more sense than the silly shit that the fundies believe but that does not mean there is any evidence for it.

Xtianity is like a rock rolling downhill in a pasture...gathering bullshit as it goes.

This is actually more further to the truth about HJ than him being some god boy.
Like magical man jesus makes any sense at all imo. Well the irony of it all the Roman empire
had a thing against christians and also it was one of the many reasons why it feel.
