i think religion does play a huge part of this.
as well as all of its variants – the og books of the bible are centuries old and prone to a lot of interpretations.
apart from that, i believe it is the special interests, the money and their invitations of “pilgrimage” to israel.
when did jesus become a christian?
in a world where dictionary meanings are peak: didn’t happen if you consider Jesus as “christ”
a “christ” cannot be a “christ-like”.
however, a lot of people have their own meaning of “christian” and could be a point of confusion. e.g., Paula White’s “christian” is an oldie-timey version of customs when Jesus wasn’t even born yet.
not sure why but when I looked at the lower right panel, I was like “hey dwight [schrute]!”
cold calling.
also robo-calls.
