You read that post & took it as an attack? Where did you learn to read , interpret others ideas & reason , try reading it over, it was far from that ..

That post was pointing out the conditions from which certain base fundamental changes happen in an evolutionary way culturally. If one thing that you might have taken as insulting to Christianity was that Jesus was not the first martyr in history, which is just a fact. But the cases of Felicity & Perpetua were very noted Christian martyrs at a time when the Roman "divine rulers" were gambling then to sway public opinion & retain control but backfired on them. These two women's martyrdom was a changing pivotal event & had great impact drawing people too the church (much like stock reversals )

This was long rolling movement in human changing religious motif & ritual dating back to the Pharoahs of Egypt, the running belief then was only the Pharoahs were candidates to be "heaven sent" and people believed it. We see a slow churning rethink of thought process (philosophy) where this acceptance of only a few divine rulers being challenged , first by the Noble classes wanting into heaven , then later by everyone , tradesman down to slaves wanted access too.. In this was Christianities greatest appeal, everyone equal in the eyes of God according to deeds of course, etc etc.

If you going to respond, please take the time to think first other wise go waste other people's time ,
thank you, your response was absolutely childish. (and insulting)

"they died 200-years after Jesus died and rose."

There was no Gospel Jesus. Primitive stories are exposed as primitive as soon as you read history. Sorry, Fella! There are THOUSANDS of tribal stories. Primitive people invented primitive explanations. Read.
