That is why they basically had to invent their own Jesus.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow They had to "basically" invent their own, or did they actually invent their own?
PicturesOfABetterTomorrow · 41-45, M
@Therealsteve I said basically because their Jesus is based on a previous version and not a completely new invention like their new orange Messiah.
Therealsteve · 31-35, M
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow But the Messiah is Jesus. No one believes that Trump rose from the dead after three days.

@Therealsteve No but they have appointed him as effectively a new Messiah with some nonsense tying him to King Cyrus. Never really bothered trying to understand this new cult's theology.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow OKay, so if no one has claimed that Trump has done the central thing to the Jesus story making him the Messiah, how is anyone making him Jesus? It is quite clear that you don't have an understanding of this, yes.

@Therealsteve It is arguable whether he is a direct analog for Jesus. For example Jesus doesn't fit the messiah in the Jewish tradition so there is no reason some new figure coming from what was Christianity should be a 1 to 1 either.
But he is the central figure of this new cult much like the Christian version of Jesus was 2000ish years ago.

Why pix, are ye having an evagelistic come-to-Jesus revival experience yourself? I'm shocked! There may be hope for you yet!

@PatKirby The exact opposite, but then again you do have a long standing reading comprehension problem.

@PatKirby I get it. For a Trumplet, English is a struggle for you.
Let me know how the GED exam goes.
