This really isn't a hot take this take more true than assumption.My hot take.
It's the Roman empire.
These Niggaz ran the world. Literally. The took the ancient Greek Gods and reshaped them into their image.... And when Christianity became too popular, the reshaped that shit too. Most Christian art comes from the Italian Renaissance or some shit.... The Roman Catholic Church can give a fuck less what Christ looked like before they adopted it... They set the standard for what it is afterwards.
That's why the Pope is still so popular. Once the Romans got a hold of it.... They made it there's.
That last supper shit is just some Italian revisionist Mt Olympus shit.
Also, I don't give a shit about any of this being historically accurate.... I'm just giving my opinion from my observations. I didn't really pay a whole lotta attention to detail on all of this. But I kinda feel I'm right. And that's what most these Niggaz on Tiktok do anyway

A lot of stories of Jesus line up with the stories of Dionysus (sp). He changed water to wine at a wedding born from a virgin. A lot of other things that him and Jesus story line up.
The Catholic Church took the book of Enoch out of the Bible because it spoke of higher beings showing humans that the power god is in us.
If I was to ever follow a religion again it would more than likely be Islam because unlike the Torah the Koran speaks highly of Jesus. He's an actual major player in the Islam meanwhile in the Torah /Talmud Jesus is burning in hell and bowling in his own shit.
You Leo's and ya false pride.I guess l figured out a long time ago I'm never gonna be recognized for how smart I am, so I just casually throw out gems and leave it to the observant to pick up on them..... Or not.... It never benefited me. Understanding is more of a curse, cuz most people too slow to follow.
Bruh you know I'm brilliant.You Leo's and ya false pride.
Dont flatter yaself.
You and Cain aint said nuffin
Next!
Bruh you know I'm brilliant.
White people going to the Vatican like that shit the holy mecca.... And you know it. So stop acting like that ain't what you had in mind when you made the thread.
If I ever start my own church, I'll let you record the services. Make sure you witness up front and center.

OversimplificationMisinformation at it's finest whooooo!
First off there is no Christianity first AD do you mean first century?
No evidence of Christianity reaching Africa in the first century while in the end of the second century you could make an argument in Egypt, while it definitely was there in 3rd century AD.
Modern Ethiopia or called Abyssinia was a Christian nation during the 4th century bce by Frumentius who lived in the 4th century AD.
Christian text is written in koine Greek of the time not in Hebrew, Aramaic nor any African language but koine Greek and later adapted into Latin. So it wouldn't be until the 5th and 6th century that it is first written in an African script aka Ge'ez.
Now she is correct that Muslims were the first to subjugate Africans into slavery, but they pretty much enslaved everybody, while Western Christians imposed race based slave code.
While, it may not be the Christian way, but Western Christianity has done a ton of atrocities to African people and even Abyssinia has destroyed the Kingdom of Meroe the last ancient Kingdom of the Nubians in the name of Christianity and for Rome power to spread.
West Africans primarily African Americans were brought Christianity through conquest and colonialization not through free will unless you are talking about the Kongo Kingdom while they were still having kidnapped victims during the trade.
Christianity is rightfully deserved to having a real critique on it's history and let's not talk about the murder and rape of Hypatia who was also friends of Christians and who were her students murdered by Christian powers due to her beliefs, knowledge, facts, and her scientific viewpoint.
Simon of Cyrene is from North East AfricaThe whole new testament was written before Rome adopted Christianity and hell considered it a problematic issue within the Empire. So, yes early Christian writers compared Jesus to Dionysus so it was in the beginning when they have done that. Remember Christianity grew within Southern Europe not in Africa.
