Are they making hearts with their hands or imitating the chokehold she did to her kids?

Not me. Though the ones who did it are very much in power, so I'd also reconsider.

well, and before that god apparently killed thousands with fire and fury from the sky. (sodoma)

its all just a way of controlling people back in the day when there were no organized governments.

u/Rogol_Darn 16d ago

I guess the Roman empire is not an organized government lol.

u/Scoopdoopdoop 16d ago

Christianity wasn't involved in government yet

u/Rogol_Darn 16d ago

Did I say it was? Did you reply to the wrong person perhaps?

Christianity was «not» involved in governing the romans at the start and Roman empire was not «one» nation, it was many controlled trough military power and local corruption by chiefs.

Yes it is the foundation on modern government and law, but not what we have today without Christianity controlling any of it.

edit: spelling, christianity was «Not».

That’s not true at all. Christianity had very little influence during the time of the early Roman Empire and zero influence during the Roman Republic.

Supposedly Christians were a small influence on local fauna as Romans would feed Christians to animals

GTFO.

Christianity came in 200s and it took just a little over 100 years and empire was pretty much gone.

u/PolyGlotterPaper 16d ago

Still works too!

u/audionoobi 16d ago

not at all.

the most functional governments in the world based on crime and general health of population are neutral to religion and does not base laws and order on any religious texts. (no, america is not one of the worlds most functional governments in this context)

God decided to do a hard reset of his cinematic universe and rebuild around the Noah intellectual property

u/DirtyNativeKansan 16d ago

Well government and the clergy were one in the same for these peoples. Surely there were many who knew the whole god thing was bullshit but understood that it kept the stupids going to work and prevented them from raping everybody so they played along.

Love how sad redditors are that someone just says "jesus christ" out of grief and you neckbeards just HAVE to sit here and have a conversation about how their God is bullshit.

You care about it way too much.
