Next time, leave the garbage on Reddit where it belongs.
He was a carpenter?? So more like: his mistake was being an artisan in a society that only wants mass-produced cheap shit.
Or possibly a stone mason, weirdly.
Huh? I haven't heard of that before.
Where in the bible does it explicitly say Jesus was a virgin.
I'm not even sure I get the point this comic is trying to make.
It sounds vaguely like an impossible standards kind of thing, except, well, having a job, any job, is kind of a reasonable expectation. And if it's specifically a commentary about standards held by women, since the only context clue we have on who these are is "Ladies"... it sounds like incel-ish complaining.
I believe you've hit the nail on the head
Jesus was the original nepo baby
I will never understand why people talk of what's akin to a Harry Potter character as if it was a real person.
There is no reliable historical evidence that Jesus ever existed.
Considering the alleged feats of the character, that would be very unlikely, and even a minor figure like John the baptist, has better actual historical evidence than Jesus.
Occam's razor suggest that Jesus was simply made up as an idea, and never really existed.
Much the same as the Greek demigods.
There is actually evidence that Jesus existed in Paul's Letters 50-60 AD although he did not have direct contact with him but he met his followers and wrote about him.
Evidence for him being God is completely different question and can probably neither be proven or disproven.
"Paul" is an anonymous author, and therefore has no credentials.
By your own account it was written decades after the fact, and based only on 3rd party account, which in itself is similar to hearsay in a court, which for good reason is inadmissible as evidence.
That does not count as reliable historical evidence. It's actually 3 steps removed from it, as there are 3 obvious sources of error.
I think more likely "Paul" or whatever his actual name was, was one of the original authors of the story of Jesus Christ, similar to being the author of Harry Potter.
As in the whole thing was completely and totally made up, and there is no rational reason to believe otherwise.
There was a guy named Jesus, born in Nazareth and crucified by the romans. There's no mystery about that and it's historically accurate
The rest, however...
Because he is, real or not, a very important and influential cultural figure and has been a very large and dominant part of Western culture since late antiquity, and billions of people believe him to be real, unlike Draco Malfoy who has only been around for a few decades and hasn't caused a massive political, economical, cultural, linguistic, and religious impact across continents.
I think that was a part of the joke: some people are so picky that even a made up personage who was intended to be good all around is not good enough for them.
I think you are right.
Jesus? The guy who was famously a carpenter?
Being a carpenter and being an employed carpenter are very different situations.
Jesus was a king first, carpenter second!
His dad was a carpenter so it was just his last name. Jesus Christ Carpenter. Like John Carpenter makes movies not shelves.
