Americans are completely retarded now.
You know that you live in the Twilight Zone when Americans look you in the eye and say tyranny is wonderful.
You know Americans have lost their minds when Americans say no Germans died during WWII.

Like I said about narcissism... 2,000 years of genocidal superstition, and they still think their shit doesn't stink.

All truth is God’s Truth. I’d be more surprised if there *weren’t* any parallels with pre-Christian views.

Keep telling yourself that.
>...literally every tradition incorporates elements from other traditions
You're doing a good job of arguing my point for me. The Gnostics (eg. Ophites, Sethians, etc) were explicit about how Jesus was equivalent with Adonis, Osiris, Attis, Dionysus, etc, etc. For starters, how many of the Nag Hammadi texts revolve around Pagan deities? The Pistis Sophia even goes so far as to say that Jesus is the son of Sophia (not Mary), and that Yahweh is a demon (aka: Yaldaboath, the demiurge). Even the Nicene theology (ie. Catholic) was ripped wholesale from NeoPlatonism (eg. the Trinity) and Hermeticism. Most of the early church fathers were NeoPlatonists and/or Hermeticists (eg. Bishop Syanecius of Cyrene, who was all 3 simultaneously). The cult of the virgin Mary is just a thin veneer of Christinanity overlaid on top of the cult of Artemis of Ephesus. That's besides that the oldest version of the OT was written in Greek and based on linguistic analysis predates the Hebrew translation. Jews in that region (ie. Alexandria Egypt) barely even spoke Hebrew at that point, because they were entirely Hellenised and steeped in Greek myths and culture. Everything they claim as their own is just a bad imitation and a lot of narcissistic victim Olympics fantasies, which later Christfags dutifully copied. The only way you can claim otherwise is if you're historically illiterate.

Americans think that Nazis are opposed to government control.
Real patriots wish that they could stay awake 24 hours a day spreading freedom.

Yes, but making him a martyr probably would have just accelerated the schism.
