I feel like people should make more left-wing christianity propaganda.
Like maybe a shirt with that quote about “a camel being able to pass through a needle before a rich guy goes to heaven.” Then like a picture of a camel looking at a needle and then underneath some rich bro in a fancy car burning in hell. I’m talking shitty boomer/christian/“AI” cartoon style.
There is hella material in the gospels for this kind of propaganda. The sermon on the mount could make a whole series. Sadly I never see it.

As an atheist I’m considering it. Jesus doesn’t need to be real to have a thing or two to say about the practice of religion, morals, or even ethics. There’s a lot of bad takes in the bible, but some good parables too. Also, there’s a fair amount in the new testament that has nothing to do with god for that matter. If it meets people where their heads are, speaking their language is worth considering.
Even better: he’s anti-colonialism too. Israel in his time was an occupied territory, and was executed by that invading force: The Romans. I have a hard time imagining anyone mid-crucifixion thinking “eh, these guys ain’t so bad.”

are there still people that think it’s camel?
I remember a meme I saw once that said something like
Jesus was an anarchist
His followers are statist bootlickers
I may not be rembering correctly but it was funny
