You can believe what you want, but you would be dead wrong. Christianity is very Jewish in origin. Whatever the Romans added is false teaching. So they would be wrong and you would be wrong for thinking they represent true Christianity.
The Jewish War[edit]
Main article: The Jewish War
His first work in Rome was an account of the Jewish War, addressed to certain "upper barbarians"—usually thought to be the Jewish community in Mesopotamia—in his "paternal tongue" (War I.3), arguably the Western Aramaic language. In 78 CE he finished a seven-volume account in Greek known as the Jewish War (Latin Bellum Judaicum or De Bello Judaico). It starts with the period of the Maccabees and concludes with accounts of the fall of Jerusalem, and the subsequent fall of the fortresses of Herodion, Macharont and Masada and the Roman victory celebrations in Rome, the mopping-up operations, Roman military operations elsewhere in the empire and the uprising in Cyrene. Together with the account in his Life of some of the same events, it also provides the reader with an overview of Josephus's own part in the events since his return to Jerusalem from a brief visit to Rome in the early 60s (Life 13–17).

In the wake of the suppression of the Jewish revolt, Josephus would have witnessed the marches of Titus's triumphant legions leading their Jewish captives, and carrying treasures from the despoiled Temple in Jerusalem. It was against this background that Josephus wrote his War, claiming to be countering anti-Judean accounts. He disputes the claim[citation needed] that the Jews served a defeated God and were naturally hostile to Roman civilization. Rather, he blames the Jewish War on what he calls "unrepresentative and over-zealous fanatics" among the Jews, who led the masses away from their traditional aristocratic leaders (like himself), with disastrous results. Josephus also blames some of the Roman governors of Judea, representing them as corrupt and incompetent administrators. According to Josephus, the traditional Jew was, should be, and can be a loyal and peace-loving citizen. Jews can, and historically have, accepted Rome's hegemony precisely because their faith declares that God himself gives empires their power.[68]

The Gospel of John 19:6-15
6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

There's plenty of contradictory things that aren't a matter of context. The different books have different deaths for judas for example
consider this

who wrote the bible: man or God? :jbhmm: why shouldn't there be contradictions?

Well i know a bunch of men wrote it. But the claim is they were "inspired" by god. So which is it. You cant have your cake and eat it too. Its either the truth or bullshyt. No in-between


My question would be, how do you know these texts were truly inspired by god and are his word? You dont, you cant and wont prove that. Because its bullshyt

thats your own viewpoint to take

the "its either the truth or bullshyt line"...is a false thought process from my perspective :ehh:

dualism is a choice

Haven't even spent a minute looking at it and already found item of stupidity in that chart. Under Scientific Absurdities and Historical Inaccuracies was the following,

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
Revelation 12:3


Anybody with common sense can tell you this was a vision and what is in Revelation is figurative and illustrative. It's not meant to be taken scientifically or historical. On top of that it's explainable if you do any research on Rome and it's landscape.

I've never seen "black folks" in real life hate the bible and God so much
You really going to compare what people say online without a face attached to these posts , to those in real life? Even black atheist don't dare to talk against
religion amongst their closest friends. Even if you are right, just because you're going against "God" you get side-eyed.

There's a fundamental flaw in people that argue against the bible. They think they are right and God is wrong.

There's no point in arguing with someone that has that mental flaw.
