I hate the 'hate' part (pardon the pun) of the question.

I'd rather go back in time and get Jesus and bring him back here so that he can go all 'temple money changers' on today's MAGA Christians asses, give them a proper yelling to.

You think they'd listen to a random brown dude who couldn't speak English?

If there's a jesus with powers in the first place, he could do the holy spirit thing that happened after his death where the apostles proselytized by speaking in languages they (previously) couldn't to people who couldn't understand the native tongue.

Something tells me that if Jesus was 'Jesussy' enough, that they'd listen to him, regardless of skin color.

I genuinely doubt it. And if he was proven to be truly Jesus and kept saying that then US Christians would either say "He doesn't understand the modern world" or reject him for some other contrived reason (i.e. he was corrupted by modernity, the machine caused him to lose his connection to God, etc...)

Christians are full of hate because they love hate.

Jesus-y? Or Jesussy? Those seem different.

I'd say whichever one seems more like an adverb than a pronoun.

I'm sure he'd be deported and ignored if not put into an asylum.

[–] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world -1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Nah, when he uses his Jesussy powers he'd stare them down quick like, and they'd beg for forgiveness.

All hail…the Jesussy

Well, for what it's worth, it's meant as an adverb, and not a pronoun.

But I don't think Jesus would mind, either way.

I want to watch this series.

Jesus the time traveler tells off assholes.

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 4 points 21 hours ago

The comedy series "Black Jesus" has some of that vibe, if I recall.

And yeah, it's great.

I'm not religious by nature, but yeah, definitely would sub for that series, for sure.
