    That’s honestly he most disturbing picture of Jesus I’ve ever seen. Visceral disgust kinda reaction.

    Like a poor, scrawny carpenter was some ripped American meatball. Fuck me, I’m an atheist and this is gross.

          And in what world is that? Everyone needs chairs, houses(of some sort), tools, utensils … ect. I can’t imagine a world or a time period where people who made the stuff everyone else needs didn’t just survive but thrive.

      He probably was jacked. Being a carpenter back then meant going into a forest, cutting down a tree, and hauling it out of there.

        Except he wasn’t a “carpenter” in the sense that we think of it. He wasn’t a woodworker building tall tables and chairs. The translation would be more accurate as “builder” or “construction worker”. Would still be in good shape, but nothing out of the ordinary.

          You know construction workers are jacked compared to desk workers right? Like if you take a random construction worker and a random office worker, neither of which lift, the construction worker is going to tend towards both more mass overall (as it helps prevent injuries) and more muscle mass (because working out as your work tends to do a lot for your body)

            They’re either built like trucks or real wiry. Though the wiry guys tend to do more climbing which might explain the difference.

          Damn straight. I’ll only accept a Jesus into my heart who can bench press a camel.

          Edit: and then karate kick it through the eye of a needle. (Also, my instance is having problems and I don’t know how that was posted extra times.)

      That’s because he’s wearing an American flag and as a nation founded under God like it says in the pledge of allegiance and on our money, and you godless atheists are sickened by the true meaning of our nation. /s

        My favorite part about that nonsense is that until 1954-55 God didn’t appear either in the pledge of allegiance or on our money. You can bet your bottom dollar if you took that line out of the pledge though conservatives would have a fit over “Woke revisionism” even though it itself is a revision.
