    I mean, if you wanna talk about the multiple books that I’ve read about Judaism and early christianity this year, I’m down.

    One was about Jesus as a messianic Jewish preacher. Another was about how he went from messiah to God after his death. Another was about how he ingeniously social-engineered his way to the cross because he believed he was the messiah because he was so clever that he was able to make it happen. Another is about the author’s thesis that he was never intended to be seen as a historical person and that he always existed in heaven but was crucified in the firmament between heaven and earth but then the new idea developed. That’s half so far.
