    I’ve said this before, you cannot combat a lie with a lie.

    Jesus and all the things said about him are made up stories. Pretending to discuss the “real” Jesus, who we want to be nice and accepting, is a losing battle.

    It’s like arguing which Saiyan is the most powerful, when they are all not real.

    Making better Christians means ridding them of nonsensical beliefs not trying to replace the lies in their head, with the nicer lies you would like them to believe.

      Here “real” refers to “the character that’s really in the Bible”. It doesn’t matter if it’s fictional. Same as criticizing a bad fan fiction with “real Harry Potter wouldn’t have done that”, with “real” meaning “in the actual source material”.
