  Another good piece of evidence I just thought of is the oldest known depiction of Jesus: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexamenos_graffito

  It seems the claim might originate with Jehovah’s Witnesses in modern times.

  Do you have any sources on the claim that it wasn’t a cross and was changed later for pagans? The scripture references “coming down” from the cross which to me would imply the one we typically think of.

  Also from en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impalement,

  "I see crosses there, not just of one kind but made differently by different [fabricators]; some individuals suspended their victims with heads inverted toward the ground; some drove a stake (stipes) through their excretory organs/genitals; others stretched out their [victims’] arms on a patibulum [cross bar]; I see racks, I see lashes … "

  Sounds like Seneca, a figure from exactly this time period confirms the type of cross we think of.

  This is in my top ten list for certain, I’m glad they’re remastering it so a new generation can enjoy it! I would like to see more new content with this same style though.

  I think a lot of the negative energy comes from folks that lack experience, and maybe are stuck in an office wanting to work from home. It definitely has its upsides, but it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows!

  I feel the exact same way after working from home for the last five years. The disconnection and pointlessness along with the reduced physical activity and terrible company corporate culture have actually resulted in me seeking out a job in an office again.

  I think it may be better for mental health and physical health, depending on the company and their culture.

  Yes, they were. The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission regularly compensates losses due to predation that have been verified.

  This is a common misconception, if you dig into it you’ll see that God is basically the same in both old and new testaments. Nobody talked about hell more than Jesus.
