Well, I’m sourcing from The Inquisitor Cycle, an alternate retelling where Jesus did what the evangelicals wanted him to do.
You see, in this retelling, Jesus told the Romans nearby that he’s going to butcher them all if they don’t let him down this instant. They laughed him off. Jesus made good on his threat, and kept going until he conquered the Roman Empire.
In this other reality, Jesus didn’t die to remove original sin, and instead decided to only save those who prove themselves worthy. This is done by showing no mercy to anyone or anything that may oppose him. In fact, mercy is considered a very serious mortal sin, since that’s what got Jesus killed in our world. The cross in the other reality has the ends bent to show how determined Jesus was to fight the injustice brought upon him (by breaking the cross, and I think he started killing people with it iirc).
It’s a great fit for Christianity in America these days. Rather than “love your neighbor”, it’s “shoot your neighbor in the fucking head if you have any suspicion that he’s a spy for the Devil”.
And the second command is like the first: ‘Love your neighbor as you love yourself.’
oh and
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
that second one being the path to breaking the cycle and escaping the material prison we’re currently trapped in, vengeance is a cycle without end.
mind you i’m pretty fucking hurt right now, and my heart is really struggling with the way a lot of people are acting, so i’m no saint.
just saying though, there’s a reason those things were said
