"This evidence might be taken as supporting the 'Caesar's Messiah' theory of Jesus Christ.
The story goes like this: The Roman were repeatedly having problems with the rebellious jewish tribes. Slaughtering them didn't seem to stem the rebellions. The Romans learned
from Josephus that the core of the Jewish beliefs were holy scriptures. The Romans set about updating these texts with new scriptures that would be pro-Roman, and provide rules of personal
conduct that would be more conducive to Roman rule: turn the other cheek, love thy neighbour, forgiveness, walk the extra mile etc. In other words, don't spend your time rebelling.The new testament contains the line, from the mouth of Jesus,
"render unto Caesar what is Caesar's". In other words, pay your taxes.
That's a very bizarre thing for the saviour of mankind to be sayingIt all adds up to:
(1) don't fight back
(2) pay your taxesWhy is the catholic church head quartered in Rome ?
Why were the first bishops and saints related to Caesar ?A very interesting theory... in my humble opinion... very plausible.
For those of you interested in this theory see here:
https://www.youtube.com/user/cae…Of-course, none of this is suggesting there isn't a god, it's just
suggesting that an account of Jesus's life was fabricated in order
to create a religion... for the purposes of social control.... originally
of the Jewish people... and later the Roman people.. and later European people and later ... much of the rest of the world."- thanks for sharingmonospaced
