Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, but early the next morning he logged back on the forum. A crowd soon gathered in IRC and he started posting with them. As he was typing, the moderators of the forum and the ban brigade brought a woman who had been caught in the act of trolling. They put her in front of the forum.

"Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of trolling. The site's Terms of Service says to ban her. What do you say?”

They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and started playing Candy Crush on his phone. They kept demanding an answer, so he posted again and said, “All right, but let the one who is without infraction cast the first death point!" Then he stooped down again and played some more Candy Crush.

When the accusers read this, they started logging off one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was on the forum with the woman. Then Jesus started posting again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”

“No, Lord,” she said.

And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and troll no more.”

While BRTD claims that krazen is the forum's equivalent of the money changers in the temple, I think this man looks just as much like a money changer:


So Jesus obviously would have punched him in the face.  (Too soon?)

We have no source as to what Jesus thought of homosexuality per se. The two relevant parts in NT are by his associate Paul - one condemn the purchase of boy prostitutes the other homosexuality during orgies. We have no way of knowing what Paul would have thought of monogamous love based gay couples (they didn't exist in his time). Generally Jesus cared about love not sex. We know he considered prostitution sinful, but not much else about his views on sexuality. As an established religion Christianity became sex-negative, but it is a reasonable assumption that Jesus would view homosexuality as the physical expression of the love between two people as something inherently good. While he would likely have considered the sort of orgies Libertas participated in sinful, we also know that Jesus was the non-judgmental and forgiving type, so it is very unlikely Jesus would have banned Libertas.

BRTD, you're such a great human. All you do is recycle. You don't even care what everyone else thinks. What a great guy!

The two preceding posts are very apt and if BRTD had any sense he'd listen to them.

This thread reveals the extent to which BRTD's faith is a mere extension of his subculture; this is apparent whenever he brags about how church for him merely serves to affirm a "progressive and SJW" outlook. There's very little faith in it and lots of superficiality and socio-political affirmation.

In other words, what kind of meaningfully religious person would feel comfortable posting such frivolous nonsense?

I fail to see how applying what Jesus would do in a modern context is blasphemous or anything. I mean I went to a church where the final Advent service was based around a girl reading the thoughts of Mary in a style as if Mary posted on Tumblr. Also even Pope Francis seems to have no problem quoting on the relevance of the teachings of Jesus to the modern day.

Jesus would treat him like He treats all degenerates.
He sure would: with love and mercy.

Like I've said before, I don't care about what some guy who dies almost 2000 years ago would do in regards to an internet forum.

Jesus would have better things to do than post on Atlas if he existed in bodily form today.

Also this

Nah, but he would go and tell Libertas to go and sin no more.
