I love how they handle Jesus in American Gods. Every deity is real and when asked about Jesus, a character responds with "Sure, There's middle eastern Jesus, black Jesus, asian Jesus, there's even white, Hollywood Jesus. It all depends on whose doing the believing"
Even if you ain't a Christian, you gotta admit, biblically accurate Jesus, a kind, noble, respectable and loving man is awesome. A man who would be disgusted by the homophobic, transphobic, and antisemitic people who try to use his name as justification for there vile actions.
Not only did he protect outcasts and minorities, but he was also an anti-imperialist revolutionary and drove out all businesses from the temple with a handmade whip. Jesus was metal
My favorite image of Jesus if the one where he is carrying a sheep with the trans flag colors it's wool, and the herd he is carrying it so saying "WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! Hold it right there! He wasn't lost, we kicked him out!" and Jesus responds "I know, and I found her."
Oh also he’s implied to have resurrected a dead child by saying his name to the Roman Guards (implied), resurrects every dead person in a several mile radius with his resurrection (this was somehow the least important event), can predict the near future, can turn off the sun (both seen when he dies) and can respawn (though by all accounts he seems to need to generate a new skin to do so, alongside a cool-down of 7 days). There’s probably others too, especially when considering the Trinity/Godhead as a whole (such as fire birds)
Oh also there is an actual magic dual in one of the Non Canonical gospels, but it’s with Peter and some obscure one off character in the actual bible (this is where the idea of Peter dying on an upside down cross comes from, having being executed for killing the guy instantly by praying to God to summon lightning instead of playing fair), Non canonical gospels will often give even more weird stuff (Like the Judas one where Jesus reveals that the God of the Old Testament is a being (iirc called “Fool” created by the Even cooler entity(?) called the Monad (which is some concept from Greek Philosophy), almost as if it’s a Shonen anime prepping up the new villain or power up for the Arc
@@smashbrandiscootch719 yeah that’s something. It’s why so many weird cult leader guys talk about how they have messed up hands. Looking it up it is apparently called Stigmata. Also to correct a thing, resurrecting people by saying his name isn’t a Jesus exclusive power, anyone saying God’s name properly allows them excessive power. Now only Jesus has the power to…
Fun fact! The name "Jesus" comes from the same etymological root as the name "Joshua". Combine that with "Messiah" meaning "the anointed one", and you get the fact that a perfectly valid translation of "Jesus Christ" would be "Moist Josh"
Have you guys ever heard of the manga/anime Record Of Ragnarok? It's about 13 humans from throughout history vs 13 gods from different pantheons in a tournament to decide the fate of humanity. I mention this because I really, really want to see how you guys would decide your fighters.
Miracles are real; I just realized RUclips unsubbed me from fact fiend for some reason and now when I come back I realize you've split this into it's own channel. Cheers on you for keeping the round green screen. Never change lel
17:45 This could be debatable. In one story, a woman sneaks a little touch of his robe when he isn't looking, and is healed somehow. It describes that Jesus "felt power go out from him" and he started asking who touched his robe and commended her on her faith. Also most of his healings do involve physical touch and "spell components". Certain accounts tell of him spitting in mud and creating some kinda magic salve to heal the blind.
As a Catholic I absolutely love this. I wholeheartedly believe that you don’t need to possess any sort of interest or belief in religion to enjoy The Bible, or any other form of religious text for that matter. Treat it like you would any other book and you’re going to have a good time.
I had a similar upbringing to Karl and Lucas. I went to a Christian Primary School and Secondary School, but around 13 I became an arheist and still am today. I'm grateful that I live in a country where, while you may be encouraged to sing hymns as a kid, you won't suffer repurcussions for saying you don't believe it later in life.
If memory serves me correctly, the reason he's born in B.C. is because some ancient people got the dates wrong, so the calendar system we use has him born early. Also apparently someone forgot there should be a zero between 1BC and 1AD.
I think it was more like trying to date it based on information given in the Bible and later finding out that other this dating was off? Aside from the fact that the gospels give contradictory data (like who ruled where or what happened) so dating when this is supposed to have been happening is difficult.
Adding onto this that the date given is based on Matthew positioning him as born not too long before Herod the Great's death, which took place in 4 BCE.
Just popping in to say that, in the opinion if this Christian viewer, y'all said absolutely nothing worth taking offense at in this. Keep up the good work, as always!
So his power set is word magic and divine auras that purifies, repels evil, and cures/heals, as well as liquid transmutation, and water walking. The majority of the miracles are preempted by him saying what he wants. However if you want to further shorten it, reality manipulation with a tendency for flair by declaring his deeds before they occur.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see you edit in "bibleman" scenes hahahaha omg I'd 1 million percent love it if you did a wikiweekend about bibleman, more so the entire production, don't care about lore.... like dude the star of the show played Buddy (the best friend) on Charles in Charge.. for the record, proud atheist, raised in a Christian home so seeing stuff like this excites me in ways you could not understand. You guys rock! I'm stoked for this new channel!
My favorite depiction of Jesus is from Record of Ragnarok, where he's one of the 4 Sages alongside Buddha, Confucius and Socrates. And when Buddha gets in a fight, Jesus is raising his fists in hype!! XD
10k subs? Congrats guys, you deserve it. And you have my thanks. I Found the factfiend Chanel at the start of the 2020 lockdown and heck, it saved my sanity 😉
I had the same thing at my primary school, wasn't a religious school. We had to sing hymns and pray in assembly, and I being from an atheist family I refused and got detention on a regular basis. My fav Jesus is the Buddy Christ from Dogma
The sad thing is; when you have established they are a reality warper; no other classifications matter. Any other ability is already covered by reality warping.
Also. Jm agnostic too Karl. I like to talk to the lord and I just cant look out in the universe and not believe in a creator. Its just to beautiful and fine tuned and yet destructive, but in a way that plants dust for new stars and new planets to form. So I dont really ascribe to a religion. Humans are just too flawed and history can be like a game of Phone sometimes. Just thought Id share lol. Keep up the good vids and be yalls selfs. Thats the best thing about this channel in my opinion, the openness and transparency
Bro my youth group had a painting of black Jesus we once found and it stayed up for 6 years till the youth pastor left. It made several older church members mad 😂
The fuck Graham text is reassuring for me, it’s nice being reminded when some of my favourite creators are against bigotry and support the rights of people like me to just bloody exist.
3:51 bro as Christian and 90’s as I am, I never experienced religion shoved down my throat as a kid. You guys went to some interesting public schools. I totally understand, though, why people who grew up in oppressive “Christian” homes would be repelled by it later. I appreciate your guys’ perspective even if I don’t agree with it 100%
13:13 Seed of the woman, Christ redeemer, Lord of lord, king of kings, the prince of peace lord of all and eternal. Great vicar of my heart and bishop of my soul. The light the lamb the deliverer. The way the truth the life and glory. (A prayer my grandmother used to say. I have no idea where she got it exactly.)
My favorite contradictory distributor of god is "God made you in his image" so..... that mean in your mind and world God looks just like you. It's your world we just live in it.... "so you think it, so shall it be"
I think that the reason Jesus was born a few years BC could be related to the fact that the wise men that visited him were a sort of confirmation of his identity as Christ and therefore starting that timeline. He was about 2 or 3 when they came to visit him if I remember right. Not sure if that’s the reason the timeline is weird but it could be a contributing factor
Since we're on this topic, just want to announce that there's a game called "I am Jesus Christ" being released later this year. It's apparently an RPG, and the cover is Jesus T-posing as the I on the title. That is all.
18:02 When christ in the bible speaks, and his words are enacted, it's to mirror the power of God "his will be done"... Which karl basicslly says. But it's dine intentionally by the author.
I’d say Jesus’ ultimate power set would include transmutation, negation (the ability to just say no to something and have it be so), and total dominion over nature
Jesus: King of the Earth sounds like a comic book where aliens want to come to earth but Jesus keeps showing up to the council meetings telling them we're not ready...
I'm all for you guys telling more people about Jesus, even if joking. And Jesus made the group of guards who arrested him fall back by standing up. He didn't need better sandals to escape.
the Bibleman title card hit me out of nowhere. And, judging by what I heard, I think Jesus DOES have reality warping powers, it's like he had Power Word Heal and Power Word Kill...or rather Power Word, period, what he says IS.
Well, if he's God's avatar in this reality and God is the programmer, he can basically make any changes to the system and make it appear in our world, Jesus is just the Avatar God is controlling on this game called life.
people with a pop culture understanding of jesus and most christians think that jesus main attribute is love but all of jesus preachings to the public were about justice and the reason jesus never wanted any of his followers to judge others is because jesus does not consider any of us to be just or at least as just as him
so, jezus knows alchemy, can create automatons, has healing touch/aura and can control the weather and is also a necromancer, what can't this man do and where can i find comics about him being a superhero
hey bruv, love your vids, just wanted to offer some food for thought, white peeps are called caucasian cuz they came from the caucous mountains, which are in turkey, which is in the middle east, so he could have been white, not saying he was, but its a possibility

He would flip tables in a lot of churches in the current day if he was around. Historically he did it once and I’m sure he’d do it again.
I reckon Jesus is the sort of guy whom would say I don't give a shit your gay wanna grab a beer
@@benionsings6840He'd say "drinks on me" and order everyone free water

thank you for commenting this. searching up this picture made my day
For anyone interested, the cartoonist in question is David Hayward, aka The Naked Pastor. He has a lot of good material like this.
the trans movement is demonic, complete opposite of Jesus Christ, completely Blasphemous for Christians

This also means that jesus is joshua son of Joseph aka jojo.

This episode was so goooood, I need a shonen where Jesus just shows up with all of his powers
But can he beat Beerus?
I’d watch Karl read the entirety of the bible
Yes, but with added banter
And then rank each story
Yeah, no shit

God, seeing that Bibleman unlocked so many memories I had forgotten. I haven't thought about that show in like 17-18 years
You should do an episode on Brock Samson from Venture Brothers, the dude is insane

Never thought of Jesus having been the son of a polycule before, nice!
I'm surprised Karl that you didn't make a John Cena joke with the entire word of Life thing lol
Jesus is a cool guy, turns water into wine and gives everyone loaves of bread and fish.
B.C, the acronym actually being B.C.E, stands for before the common era.

That fig tree though..
And the ability to instakill people
There are similarities in Jesus and Darth Vader's attitudes I'd never noticed

Jesus of Nazareth is in the Marvel comic universe (so far only Earth-616). He is *implied* to be a mutant.
The first body was a rental
if we're all children of god then we've been left in a hot car and someone should call cps
The reason why Jesus was born in 3bc, is due to an error in how the gregorian calendar was calculated I believe

Half the time I forgot it was Jesus. It sounded more like Chuck Norris.
Lmao Jesus wili 😮
About growing a new ear for the guy.

so, jezus knows alchemy, can create automatons, has healing touch/aura and can control the weather and is also a necromancer, what can't this man do and where can i find comics about him being a superhero
so jesus has a philosophers stone from FMA
nice guy, shame about the fan club.
XD
there are definitely worse figures to take inspiration from as long as you actually look at what he does
Just look at the D&D clerical spells; about half of them were based on Jesus' miracles.
Lets goooooo 😂🫡
In the infancy he also cured a man's erectile dysfunction
hey bruv, love your vids, just wanted to offer some food for thought, white peeps are called caucasian cuz they came from the caucous mountains, which are in turkey, which is in the middle east, so he could have been white, not saying he was, but its a possibility
Only issue is jesus is supposed to have been born in Israel mate 😅
So if he can just instantly heal people and himself, the torture of his crucifixion kind of loses l its edge when he just wolverine heals
If jesus stood on a river, would he go downstream like a conveyor belt?
Can we get part 2?
I know it the moment you guy made this channel I sead your gonna do jesus are you
So what you're telling me is Jesus is Greenbull from One Piece with a reality warping power
