ThyCorndog 04/22/23 1:11:08 AM #53:	I just think it'd be nice if there was more education in history in general. the black cleopatra thing (despite her being greek) isn't the egregious thing in itself, it's more what people say along with it. like I've seen otherwise well-meaning people defend it by saying egypt is in africa, as in being on a land mass makes you a skin color you could say the same about how nazis think all civlizations were started by white people, how republicans think santa and jesus were white, and so on. historical illiteracy is a big issue but I guess it's not really a pressing one --- https://i.imgur.com/6cPXvLN.jpg https://i.imgur.com/hVC4i6j.jpg <cite>ThyCorndog posted [p:972999877] in What Bothe...

The only non biblical records I've ever seen are just people mentioning that people believe he existed. Basically just Romans commenting that Christianity is a thing.

BurmesePenguin 04/22/23 4:19:50 AM #69:	VampireCoyote posted... there is general agreement but there is actually zero historical evidence that Jesus existed The fact that it isn't some legend that sprung up hundreds to thousands of years later is evidence, as the story of a Jewish man named Jesus who was crucified in Jerusalem on behest of the Roman authority of the city could simply be contradicted by everyone who lived there at the time. I know we're supposed to think ancient peoples were morons, but really. It's a preposterous occam's razor reversion to doubt the existence of a dudebro religious nutter who got so bothersome to the authorities of the time that they got rid of him. rather people at the time invented a contemporary story that that totes did happen, for reals, and decided to believe in it as world-view shaping religious doctrine. <cite>BurmesePenguin posted [p:973001414] in What Bothe...
