Not as readily recognizable; but on the other hand, if you recognize Jesus then you already know this is incorrect.
Where’s that painting of Moses with the tablets? That’s probably better
Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules

Wrong dude. That was Abraham in Genesis.

Yes, this dude got his dick cut off as well.

If Jesus is God and God told Abraham then i guess it’s technically the right dude.

only jesus said there is a new covenant with him, which nearly all denominations interpret to mean the rite of circumcision is a thing of the past

… Unless you’re in Protestant dominated USAmerica, where male genital mutilation remains a widespread a common practice.
Roughly 80% of American boys/men are circumcized.
I can provide either statistics or pics as proof, your choice.

no i know. i’m part of that statistic. my parents weren’t consulted ahead of time. it was simply done “for health reasons”

None of that is for (directly) religious reasons though; Americans circumcise their sons because a cereal company founder thought it would prevent masturbation, and Americans are removed apparently

Tell that to the doctors recommending it then, not to us. As far as I’m concerned this obsession over it is a mental disease and not one I’m pleased to see making the jump from Reddit.

Supposedly, Jesus was the new covenant. All these sunworshiping cults can’t get along. But yet they think they’re the ones that should be in charge. They’re all a bunch of idolaters.

Jesus hadn’t been created yet. God is eternal, but Jesus was God made mortal.

is generally interpreted to mean that Jesus was there from the beginning. Or, to quote the Nicene Creed,

Didn’t Jesus deny being god though, the son of god and god are not the same entity, it’s like saying I’m my mother because I was born out of her, but two different entities

This is technical correct and I love it.
