I’m not sure how else you’d describe the strict orthodox religious sect that ratted him out or the oligarch governor of a continent spanning empire overseeing a conquered province who rubber stamped a state-managed torture and execution.
If Jesus were alive today, he’d be living in Guantanamo Bay.
The literal definition of conservatives fits the Pharisees to a T.
You understand they killed him because they were conservatives and didn’t want his “new progressive” ideas from spreading further to the people, correct?
You’re not even trying here. Or you’re really, really clueless as to what conservatism is in politics throughout history.
TL;DR;
Jesus was a progressive.
The people who killed him were conservatives.
If Jesus were alive today he’d 100% be a progressive/liberal. His ideas fit neatly within the progressive and liberal ideals, even 2,000 years later.
And just like 2,000 years ago, conservatives today would claim he’s the anti-christ and try and murder him to kill his “progressive” ideas.
We don’t even have to create hypotheticals. We see this with people who actually represent Jesus Christ’s teachings from the book (love everyone equally, don’t judge, don’t horde money, render unto ceasar, help the poor, give up your money to help, don’t build giant churches and temples, don’t be racist, don’t do war, don’t do genocide, etc. etc.), get attacked and death threats from modern day conservatives. Just like the conservatives from B.C.
Nothing has changed. Because that’s what being a conservative means.
You understand that right? It’s literally right there in the name.
I mean, the conservative law makers did execute Jesus…
the idea conservatives killed jesus - it’s a fun take.
Edit: Not saying its a wrong take, lol, just never thought about it that way

I’m pretty sure he’d be in a government lab

Are you trying to make a serious argument that the Pharisees were progressives?
So you think progressives killed Jesus?
