Comment on Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed?
Baahb@lemmy.world 4 months agoThat feels a lot like your personal interpretation. You do not get to decide how people who call themselves Christian define themselves.

I’m going to start calling myself “muslim” then, as “muslim” means “one who submits to God”

You go ahead and do that. Worth noting that Islam doesn’t have a protestant reformation thats come in to say “f this the rules are whatever I want them to be personally,” so it’s basically still in its Catholic hegemony phase.

The protestant reformation didn’t do that. In fact, it was the opposite. It was based on the Bible over everything and shedding the idea of a pope who can claim “the rules are whatever I want them to be personally”

But that’s literally the second thing to happen in the protestant reformation. King Henry saw that Martin Luther guy and said “shit if he doesn’t have to listen to the Pope, I don’t either. Let’s strait up rewrite the Bible motherfucker!” So that the parts he didn’t like didn’t apply. Are you gonna say anglicans aren’t Christian?
