Invented a few hundred years earlier according to whom? Additionally, it would be pretty ironic that the Roman empire created a religion, collapsed as an empire, but lived on as the most powerful and richest state in the world. |
Archaleogical evidence. Well, i guess that's not whom. Arcaelogists?
Also.. historical writings...?
Also Joseph Atwill funny enough. More on this later.
Constantine became emperor in 306 AD.
Christian Art has been identified and dated as existing 2 centuries before that.
Let alone Nero's recorded prosecution of Christianity
Tacitus writings on Jesus (116 AD)
and archaelogical finds that date possibly as far back as 70 AD.
Which is why,... if you had read your own source... (or i guess have an ancillary knowledge on roman history) you would of noted he doesn't claim Constantine created it.
Though he still suggests that invention of Christanity postdates Nero. Which is just weird.
His website is hilarious though.
Join us for a one-day symposium that will provide a unique insight into how the ruling classes, from the Caesars of the past to the public relations firms working for governments and high finance today,*cough jews cough* have maintained power and an unending stealth class war by weaponising our own imagination against us.
If I had to guess I imagine his theory will be that Vespian, Josephus and Trajan concocted the idea after Josephus' betrayel and pushed it on people via ancient alien esque arguements.
How he gets around the whole Nero thing will be intersting though... considering the Great Fire of Rome predates the First Roman-Jewish war by 2 years.
Should be some interesting hand waving there.
As well as explaining why the Romans would create Christianity, and then prosecute it worse then Judiasm for a couple hundred years even though it was supposed to be the repalcement of Judism.
