And before you try to rob me of my precious reddit gold, here's a hint: I'll approach this in about as much good faith as you will. "skydaddy huehuhue" doesn't cut it, because I literally used to think this way... when I was 14.
What if I told you that we are shaped by things that are beyond empirical examination, that have a memetic blueprint that shapes a body of context that extends well into the epigenetics of a population and how we are collectively shaped? That the common thread is within what you might consider a myth in the same way that the story of Icarus manifested in flight? That the practice of traditions are like the organs of the body on a meta-memetic level? That the shaper is both seen and unseen, rational and irrational, that the soul in and of itself is compartmentalized and metabolized context - that the context, and manifest destiny of biology are shaped by something entirely ethereal and that neither are emergent of the other, but a whole in and of itself? Eternal recurrence but much, much broader.
Therein lies the significance of Christ; though you would have to read both old and new testament to really understand the what and the why.
Yet tradition maintained for 2000+ years and the world was shaped by it. We wouldn't likely be on speaking terms if it were not for this "magical god man", nor would we have the same faculties for examining "whimsical bullshit" without the institutions of education and law that emanated from Christendom as a body.
Jesus himself is like the FOXP2 gene, which gave us the ability to transcend break the code of biological dogma, chronicle, and create our own meta-machinations for observing ourselves; we were given manifest destiny in this regard. This was the main goal of biology, and this is the goal of that larger unseen meta-organism that seems to follow its own rules, from bottom to top. A single activated gene can alter an organism entirely, and for our larger body of context that was Jesus - placing us on speaking terms with something much higher than our two dimensional and worldly understandings and we spoke with our moral constitutions a living language instead of shapelessness and broken sentences constructed in spiritual infancy. A spiritual literacy, curriculum, and legacy.
You completely missed my point and I am not entirely surprised, given your mindset. That said, there is a lot going on with Chris Chan - he is a slave to overindulgence, he is a creature. Would he have been better with Christ? Maybe. I think he is the manifestation of other malignant developments.
I was 14 once too.
