early christianity was so insane because its main adherents were middle easterners and the religion didn't gain any level of sanity until europeans took control of itthat's all i have to say, thanks
>>18105942>early christianity was so insane because its main adherents were middle easterners/pol/tranny cope. Ancient MENA religions were much more coherent than rewriting the Bible every week because some inbred king said so and the top "holy man" of European Christendom just lets it happen because all they care about at the end of the day is money and power. Christianity before euros was a religion. Now it's just a grift.
>>18105942Christianity is still insane. People rolling on the floor, tongues, people saying God predestined them to sin, people claiming Jesus told them something, people claiming the world is flat because of the Bible, snake handling ect
>>18105970No, before Euros it was similar. Many people claiming the world was gonna end and people forming cults telling people to leave their famiilies. Original Christianity was super apocalyptic and waiting for the end of the world
>>18105989>OG Christians thought that things were absolute and the world would end without stepping on any brakesHow is that any more "insane" that adding a bunch of fine print about buying your way into heaven or avoiding death entirely?
>>18105989Batshit insane cults were kinda part and parcel of Roman spirituality at times of Jesus and his disciples. There were pagan cults in Rome that took chastity so seriously they shunned even marital sex, and there are theories of them somewhat influencing some early Christians (such as Paul) just begrudgingly approving of getting married and having sex before Jesus returns.
