If they casted lore accurate actors for Passion of the Christ, portraying Jews as they really looked like, a number of Christians would drop significantly.Instead they casted Greek looking Jesus and out of all people, fucking Monica Bellucci. Ridiculous.
>>217788236>jewsbut they didnt call themselves jews but people of judaea. Early Christians were considered as Samaritans rather than Israelites
>>217788236>they cast mediterranean people in mediterranean rolesThere are greeks and italians that look as swarthy and semitic as the worst caricatire you can imagine and there are levantine people that look like the people in opIt's a movie, they cast beautiful people to play the main characters
Has there been literally any movie about Jesus with an actual middle eastern cast?
>>217788236It's hard to cast a jewish man as Jesus when you're an antisemite. And the christian audience wouldn't like it either.
>>217788343>>217788236>is he/she jewish or italian? is a long running established joke because they often share some characteristicsOP your post ain't it
>>217788274Judeans were Semitic and were in fact Jews. No amount of mental gymnastics and schizophrenia will change that.
>>217788236But this is what Jesus looked like.
>>217788604i wanted to start going to church on sundays but its overwhelming the amount of churchs in the area, some are like rock concerts where they want you to hold your hands in the air, some are dutch and the services are dry and slow with extremely formal attire. Are these two things really what churches are?
>>217788236Jesus looked pretty good, not sure what you are complaining about.>>217788665 It shouldn't take more than an hour for your standard service: Hymns, Liturgy, Sermon, Creed, Confession, Communion.I wouldn't choose either one of those, but you can test out a few. You don't have to stick to one unless you like it.
>>217788665>the services are dry and slow with extremely formal attire. Are these two things really what churches are?Yes. It's ceremony, it's not meant to be entertainment. You put on your sunday best, you attend and you get something out of it or you don't. If you don't, no one's forcing you to go.
>>217788236Simon of Cyrene was also black.
>>217788894Shroud isn't real.
>>217788665Who gives a fuck? Why is it so important to you that church be the very specific form of social gathering and prayer that you're comfortable with? No one ever said church was supposed to be comfortable. Put your pants on, go to church, and shut the fuck up.
>>217788236If your theory's true, which it isn't because your a gaytheist, how were there so many Christians before movies existed? If the visual media is the only thing upholding their numbers, as your claiming, how were they so strong before the screen was invented? I'll wait.
>>217789509It was forced by sword and faggot Roman Emperors, by extension Europeans later on.
>>217788236>castedFuck off jeet
>>217789524Majority of the world is ESL including Americans.
>>217788524Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure Jesus was Christian.
>>217788274Giga cope. The Samaritans were israelites too.
>>217789517Nope
>>217790676Well he was mormon technically, but the term didn't exist yet back then
>>217790937Are you fucking retarded or illiterate?
>>217790676He was jewish. A Christian is a follower of Christ, Christ doesn't follow Himself, does He?
>>217790971He was jewish. Mormonism is made up American nonsense.
>>21778950998% of Christians that have ever existed were basically just heretics. Some faggot would enforce Christianity onto a populace for ideological or political reasons and they would just go "yeah okay whatever bro, just leave me alone" while continuing to practice their own folk religion and beliefs now shrouded in Christian imagery.During a period like the Italian renaissance or Elizabethan England a lot of intellectuals were just straight up syncretic, neoplatonic pagans that couched their beliefs in Christian imagery. Never mind the fact, there's about a 1000 sects of Christianity believing their own flavor of retarded nonsense.
>>217791188Mormonism is the final evolution of the Abrahamic faith, the logical conclusion of judaismHe may have not known it yet, but he was mormon as judaism was just the larval form of MormonismYou can call a baby chicken a chick, but it's ultimately still a chicken
>>217788236These retarded threads really found their meaning once it was proven that Epstein founded and astroturfed this shithole.The jig is up nigger, we know what you are, you have no more power here.
>>217791177He believed in himself
>>217791261He was jewish, though.
>>217791230Then why do the teachings of Mormonism contradict the Bible?
>>217791378In what way?
>>217791390The Book of Mormon claims the Three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are three separate being, while the Bible teaches They are three Persons in One God.The Book of Mormon claims God was once a man who progressed to godhood, while the Bible teaches that God is, always was, and always will be God.
>>217791243Jesus was a Jewish pedophile himself. So what the fuck are you talking about to dumb golem?
>>217791449I guess people weren't ready for the truth yet, so many people weren't ready to admit Jesus was the messiah either, still aren'tSeparates the chaff, you know
>>217788236>lore accuratebrainrot detected
>>217788665True answer: you check what the church does BESIDES the service.Do they have a cacerole day for poor people? Do they have free space for AA meetings or shit like that? Do they have teen envolvement giving out flyers, for season feativals they make? Do they invite you to a kermes or charity donation festival? All or some of them?That is a great church.If you find a church that helps it's community, then their style of service is secondary and something you endure, if you don't really really like it.Like a price you pay for the good they make.Otherwise, you are just going to church to be comfy, if there's a church that you can play videogames in pajama during service, and they give you free chips, that would be awesome and comfy. But that's not "going to church" tho, that's just a material dopamine hit
>>217788236>Every one of Jesus’ apostles besides Peter was underage (neaniskos is the Greek word used)>When a woman questions why he hangs out with kids he says “don’t scandalize me”>Tells these boys he will make them “fishers of men”>Goes into upper rooms and washes their feet while naked>Tells them to “eat his flesh and drink his haima” (if you think this means “blood” here, see Ezekiel 23:20)>Is arrested in a public park at 4am with a naked boy (see Mark 14:51-52)>When the cops show up he says “why do you come for me with swords and clubs like I’m some kind of leistes”>The word leistes, which gets translated as “thief” is actually “pirate” and was used in contemporary texts (many examples such as Lucian’s Alexander) to refer to sex traffickers>Sex trafficking was a big problem in the Mediterranean and one of the big things the Romans did was crack down on the pedo pirates. Julius Caesar himself was kidnapped by them as a kid and afterwards had them all crucified>Jesus Christ was in fact crucified between two other leistesThere's a reason Jesus's "Most Beloved Disciple" is always depicted as a beardless boy whereas the rest of his followers had beards. Dude liked em young.Mark 14:51-52 There Goes Your Whole Religion, dumb golems.
>>217791510The Bible is the inspired word of God. it doesn't contain untruths.
>>217791537This is why common people shouldn't interpret the Bible for themselves.You are wrong.
>>217791584Not an argument. And there is nothing for interpretation here anyway.
Reminder that you are *literally* pushing Israeli propaganda by claiming that Jesus was of the same ethnicity as modern jews. Israelis are the ones who invented that narrative and used it as justification for their occupation. No matter what you think about Christianity, do not be a shill for one of the most important myths to modern jews.
>>217791602You're fucking retarded.
>>217791543Same for the Book of Mormon
>>217791632Says who? Joseph Smith? What gives him the right? Also, you can't claim that two books which contradict are both the inspired Word of God. It doesn't make sense.
>>217791598I don't know what you mean.
>>217791660I didn't expect anything else from a christcuck cattle.
>>217791648Says God who inspired the ancient prophets to write the golden tablets revealed to Joseph Smith by an angel of GodAlso, God is almighty, there is nothing that is impossible to Him, He can in fact create a boulder that is too heavy for Him to lift and then lift it, doesn't need to make sense to your mundane senses
>>217791677Did God lie in the Bible then, did He?
>>217791669Well, you're wrong.
>>217791696Not my place to say
>>217791772Sorry, but the Bible is the truth and that's that.
>>217791838Yes and so is the Book of Mormon, glad we agree
