The Roman imperial mindset is that which is best typified by the Tories. It's how they are educated.
It's no accident that Judaism, Christianity, Islam and many other belief systems arose in the territorially-significant lands of modern Israel which controlled the vast wealth of the silk and spice trades. Rome was exposed to the social-engineering weapon of monotheism when they put down the Jewish rebellion and perfected the method in a slave religion which has endured millenia.
Blessed are the meek. We'll look after things in the meantime.
the greeks controlled that region before rome
the Phoenicians (the crafty devil worshippers and semites btw) controlled it before them and the Egyptians had intermittent ownership
all of them loved the sun god and were partial to a bit of moloch sacrificial style rites.
still no sure why you think Jesus was made up by these peoples in order to control them if they were mostly all into sun worship prior to christ.
at no point did the jews or even Israelites ever control the trade routes of these big empires
the jewish rebellion was after christianity was born
the modern version of rabbi (no temple) jews comes after the rebellion and temple destruction which was 35+ years after Christs ascension
Rome killed christians as atheists
if you didn't worship the Gods and thought a bloke from Israel was god to them that was atheism
and they tortured anyone who refused to worship emperor as god.
so I cant see why you think Jesus was made up as a roman joke?
And tbh
I suspect you are reading zeitgeist gash
which has been debunked
so would it be foolish to believe people who tell lies
or the one bloke that no-one can find anything where he told a lie
in fact nearly every time. he spoke in New Testament
he begun amen amen
which means truly truly
and despite people thinking his words are lies they can never identify a single lie in what he said
all the blokes wo did the devil worship and child sacrificial hedonistic party thing speak lies as commonly as they can
for they are not of the truth
and want no part in the truth
but chose a lie to suit their ego instead
