    Hmm… Christian theologians have spent centuries debating whether the components of the Trinity have the same essence, substance, nature, personality, etc.—but have they considered whether they share the same ideology? What if Jesus is a socialist but the Holy Ghost is a fascist?

      What if Jesus is a socialist

      Everything in the bible about Jesus makes him sound like a socialist…

      But that doesn’t keep church leaders in funny hats and gold. So the stories changed over the last couple thousand years

        To be fair, it’s mainly the Catholic church that has the “funny hats and gold” thing going on. Protestants are all about the expensive suits and private jets.

          And oddly, the funny hats and gold guys have been relatively progressive lately. Definitely a shit history, but certainly better than their modern suits and jets competition

            Francis has been okay, as Popes go. I’m not sure I would say anything so generous about the rest of the RCC.
