I adore this comic for some reason

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

This just made me think about Shin Megami Tensei. I think Messiah (the closest equivalent to Jesus) would probably win 1 on 1, but the whole Hindu pantheon would probably wear him down eventuality.

Edit for non-smt fans: SMT is Pokemon for religious and folk mythology. Lol

Since 2008 Ganesha only lost two times. I guess Jesus is past his prime. And the first loss wasn’t really a loss, since it was 8 first place winners with 7 kids of South Asian descent.

I mean look at him! Jesus doesn't seem like he has much of a shot against that beast of a deity.

why jesus cakes hanging out

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 10 points 2 hours ago

Dude forgot to gird. Rookie mistake.

If we consider the Sistine Chapel's depiction of the realm of heaven to be divine inspiration, the clothes were added later after some complaints.

The whole concept of original sin is such that pure beings such as Adam and Eve did not even realize that they were naked until they ate the fruit of carnal knowledge.

Therefor it is canon that God likes to hang out with his wang out. Freeballin.

Also Jesus was a bottom

Do you think he was topping 12 dudes a night? They started a religion after him because he was nice not because he was a multiple cummer

So it totally makes sense for him to be flying cakes in a fight with a Hindu god

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what your religion is but I regret to inform you that you're not going to the good place.

Based on having had to read that comment I would say we're already in the bad place

I'm a slut for cum fill me Judas

~Jesus Christ, probably

Yes it looks like an iron axe, and God has a problem with Iron:
https://biblehub.com/judges/1-19.htm

Judges 1:19

The LORD was with the men of Judah. They took possession of the hill country, but they were unable to drive the people from the plains, because they had chariots fitted with iron.

So the idea that God is almighty is pretty ridiculous, according to the Bible that is.

[–] tourist@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I never actually read much of the thing

I just assert that the burning bush was absolutely cannabis sativa, despite any solid evidence to the contrary. I don't care that it's not native to the region or whatever.

Anyways, why the fuck was he driving people out of the plains? Homies were just chilling in their iron chariots.

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 1 points 1 hour ago

I can't claim to have much experience in the matter, but I don't think people who just chill generally have chariots fitted with iron. Like if your neighbor happened to have a tank and a bunker, would you say they're just chilling?

No pants for serious mode

Also relevant, two people of the same religion praying for the same thing. The god fights themselves. Or flips a coin, free will remember.

[–] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 19 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Jim Carrey comes to mind in Bruce Almighty, when he starts to say yes to every prayer and thousands win the lottery.

[–] superduperpirate@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Don’t they each win like ten cents or something?

[–] einkorn@feddit.org 7 points 3 hours ago

Yes and it starts a riot.

[–] BanjoShepard@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

I thought the god chose the person who had suffered more of the gods torture.

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 4 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

There's no fucking way a human zombie pacifist Jew would be able to take on a 2-ton humanoid elephant god with six arms and wields weapons 1 v 1.

I legit have Pro- and Anti-SKUB shirts on the way

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 hours ago

I'd buy that Street Fighter DLC pack.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I would love for Marvel to make this movie.

I mean, the MCU is pretty clearly burnt out, and I wouldn't trust DC to make a movie worth watching.

[–] Indivisability9559@lemm.ee 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

I am someone who hasn't seen a DC movie since Dark Knight Returns, and who has only seen the Sam Reimi Trilogy and Amazing Spider-man 1 and 2. Is the MCU really as good as people say it is? The trailers I've seen just make them seem like mindless action films.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 2 points 13 minutes ago

They aren't uniformly good, but the median quality is higher than DC.

To be clear, I'm only talking about the Infinity arc storyline, which terminates at End-Game. Nothing worthwhile after that.
