“They” are supposed to do and be many things, which they usually do or are the opposite of. But covertly.

The people making this are almost always cynical, amoral, business-religion tech bros.

How is it blasphemy to text with Jesus? It’d be an honor.
Dingleberrydipndots@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah we aren’t living in old testament days anymore. We live more by convictions now than “the law”.
Seems like a great app that could be used very positively by the smart sincere person. And, it could be used as a joke by the cynical, insincere and insecure.

Who are these “they” you speak of? Do you mean the small handful of christians that actually adhere to their own religious texts?

25“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?g 28And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
34“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
You’d think a JesusGPT would remember the Gospels better than the letters Paul wrote decades after he died having never met him.

This just makes me want to try to get it to hallucinate a Bible verse that doesn’t exist… but it’s not worth giving them the traffic to try.
Aneb@lemmy.world 2 months ago
So umm “make no idols before me” really took a 180⁰ turn in this capitalist hellscape. Its almost like Jesus was hippie commie who wanted peace in the middle east and not generations of war and bloodshed against the native inhabitants of Jerusalem and the west bank

Why would Jesus quote Paul, a pharisee who hijacked Christ’s words to turn anarchistic personal salvation back into controllable religion?

I have a neighbor down the street named Jesus I gab with sometimes but he hasn’t been out much because the government is trying to human traffick him into torture.

Afaik these things are not approved of by any churches or religious organizations.
If you ask them if Jesus would suck a dick to save a soul none of them give the correct answer.

No, it’s not. It’s texting with an Ai bot pretending to be Jesus.

To be fair, AI is considerably more real than Jesus ever was.
TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
No it’s not. Jesus dit live at some point in history, although he was just a normal bloke. AI doesn’t exist, even AGI doesn’t even exist yet. We just have LLM’s. It has not artificial intelligence or artificial general intelligence.

Jesus wouldn’t quote the Bible. It was written hundreds of years after his death.

He might quote himself, which was then put in the Bible, tho.
BenVimes@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
Let’s be correct here: the Christian Bible was canonized centuries after Jesus’s death. That’s not the same thing as being written.
I still appreciate the point you’re making, though.
turdas@suppo.fi 2 months ago
The New Testament was written after his death too, some parts of it earlier than others. I think it’s also a pretty safe bet that there was a lot of editorializing over the centuries, since AFAIK the earliest surviving copies of anything are from the 2nd or 3rd centuries CE.
icelimit@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
‘this fan fiction is now mainstream’.
Fedizen@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Some parts of the bible are largely shown to have been written about 400 years later
Mr_Fish@lemmy.world 2 months ago
He would and did quote the old testament. The prophets books were written at least a few hundred years before he lived, and those were the latest of the old testament to be written.
The new testament was written about 100 years after he lived, and canonized a few hundred years later.
SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The old testament did exist, and Jesus misquoted and misunderstood the fuck out of it.
Matthew 22:41-45
Jesus asks the pharisees how the messiah can be the son of David when David calls the holy spirit “lord,” referring to psalm 110 whish starts “the lord said to my lord.” It’s a ridiculous claim to start with, but it’s not even the correct understanding. The narrator is not David, they’re recounting what happened to David. The lord (God) said to my lord (king David). At no time does David even speak in psalm 110.
