  7 Apophis - once an extremely powerful Goa’uld System Lord. Arch enemy of the Tau’ri, he impersonated the ancient Egyptian deity of chaos, darkness and fire. Image

    Apophis is a false god. Say it with me, it’s what you really believe.

    what about the Ori? or Sokar? or Setesh? or even Bal?

    • emotional_soup_88@programming.dev ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I shall deal with the Ori after I have conquered the System Lords.

  2 Manly P. Hall – known for writings on esoteric philosophy.

  That picture is actually of Gerald Gardner, the guy who founded (kind of? Its complicated) the religion of Wicca.

  To answer the question though, white Jesus easily has the most toxic fan club, by sheer volume of followers.

  Anton LaVey was an edgy fuck though, so he probably gets 2nd place for just being kinda cringe ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  Jesus, by far. The people who have been murdered in his name is probably close to or over a good billion, right?

  He’s not really a “foundational figure of Christianity” though, his image was just co-opted by the Roman empire which then created the religion also co-opting the actual “Jewish revival” Jesus was at the core of (bringing the fundamentals of monotheism back into mind and expanding the teachings to everyone, not just a small select community).

  source

  • bestboyfriendintheworld@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Jesus never asked for wars in his name though. It’s not part of his teachings.

    Christianity changed a lot once it became the dominant religion of the Roman Empire.

    However Christianity also brought a lot of positive social changes with the focus on forgiveness and helping the unfortunate for example.

    It was spread by conquest, but also peaceful friendly missionaries. These missionaries often invented a writing system for the illiterate people they visited.

    Not disputing you but I’d be interested in how you arrived at this count.

    source

    • ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Completely eyeballed it but I included every Western imperialist project that was done with Bible in hand and chanting variations of “Deus Vult”, so that’s large chunks of Asia, most of Africa, all of Latin America, and every Western incursion on West Asia from the Crusades to Iran today. And let’s not forget the pagan persecution in the West itself by the Romans. That’s a shit ton of people through the ages, right?

  I feel the inclusion of Jesus does this list a disservice, could have been like a Buddha, Mohamed, Jesus… List and I think that would have been better because of the league Jesus is playing in. Basically skews the list.

  But the first 5 in the list is an awesome list to choose from. I would say Rasputin due to the shit show Russia was going to be put through that I feel he was the straw that broke the camel’s back and led to cascading events I feel still persists

      Except when christians pull us all into their baggage it’s purging the various impure people or a oil war to try and kick off their stupid little apocalypse.

      When LaVeyans are being their most toxic it looks this:
