The protagonist beats bankers with a belt whip and chills with sex workers on the reg. Plus he always brings the booze.

Yeah the way Jesus is presented is pretty dope actually, judge not, and just be excellent to each other. The rest of the Bible is the opposite of his "teachings".

Gran of salt and all, but ever heard of the "Caesar's Messiah" theory? Won't say it's a 100% but interesting nonetheless, and explains why new testament so starkly different from old.

I can't say I've ever heard of it. I'll look into it though, thanks!

E- looked it up, I mean at the end of the day there is no super natural person/God thing, but it does appear that Jesus was a real person, who certainly would not have risen from the dead. It's all a farce at the end of the day though....
