He never put himself forth as the almighty savior of the whole human race and it was never his intention to have people worshipping him as a god, he was just another 1st century jew warning people about the approaching end of times and that they needed to repent to God to enter his kingdom which was going to arrive soon. The ressurection thing and the atonement doctrine that followed from it was complete and utter post hoc rationalization, people claimed they saw him after he died and created an entire narrative to fit that, he never said he was god, he never said he was going to ressurect and people had to come to him as the one true god to be saved, this was never attested to in the first three gospels and anything of this nature only comes up in the gospel of John which is the last one and where a shit ton of embellishment was included post hoc, it's the most theologically loaded one with nothing to do with how Jesus actually presented himself according to all credible and unbiased biblical scholars.
Just felt the need to say this because it's painful to watch all Christians on here yapping on about their tale while they're completely oblivious to history. You just follow the post hoc word of Paul, if Jesus were to come back to earth today he'd be in complete befuddlement as to why there are so many people worshipping and devoting their lives to him. You worship an average apocalyptic preaching jew from 1st century Palestine who was just interacting with his contemporary religious and political culture and wanted the Jewish people to be free from Roman oppression, thinking he's your God who's going to save you. Fucking cringe, imagine what he would think if he found out there are people devoting their whole lives to him 2000 year later because of what the grieving of his followers brought about. You're a complete joke for being so credulous and historically illiterate.
