"Was Jesus a Jew? Of course, Jesus was a Jew. He was born of a Jewish mother, in Galilee, a Jewish part of the world. All of his friends, associates, colleagues, disciples, all of them were Jews. He regularly worshipped in Jewish communal worship, what we call synagogues. He preached from Jewish text, from the Bible. He celebrated the Jewish festivals. He went on pilgrimage to the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem where he was under the authority of priests... He lived, was born, lived, died, taught as a Jew."

"Christian" Family Values

Many seem to be under the impression that European family values arose from Christianity—despite verses such as Matthew 10:35-38. However, this is easily disproven. For example, referring to the Germanic tribes, highly noted Roman historian Tacitus stated in Germania (c.a. 98 CE):

Of learning and of any secret intercourse by letters, they are all equally ignorant, men and women. Amongst a people so numerous, adultery is exceeding rare; a crime instantly punished. In truth, nobody turns vices into mirth there, nor is the practice of corrupting and of yielding to corruption, called the custom of the Age.

Better still do those communities, in which none but virgins marry, and where to a single marriage all their views and inclinations are at once confined. To restrain generation and the increase of children, is esteemed an abominable sin, as also to kill infants newly born. And more powerful with them are good manners, than with other people are good laws.

The Gospels are not history; they are religious propaganda, contradictory, exaggerated, and mythical. The earliest Christian writings, the letters of Paul, are silent about the man Jesus: Paul, who never met Jesus, fails to mention a single deed or saying of Jesus (except for the ritualistic Last Supper formula), and sometimes contradicts what Jesus supposedly said. To Paul, Jesus was a heavenly disembodied Christ figure, not a man of flesh and blood.

The Crusaders Did Not Save Europe

The Crusades were far more devastating to Europe than to the Middle East. People seem to be under the impression that they played a significant role in the Arab-Byzantine Wars (7th-11th century), but those had already largely concluded when the First Crusade (1096-1099) was launched to "retake" the "Holy Land."

After gaining and losing territory repeatedly, the Crusaders shifted their focus in the 13th century and started to Christianize the Baltic Old Prussians (during which those who refused to be baptized were subjugated, killed, or exiled), sack Constantinople (after slaughtering its Roman Catholic inhabitants), massacre Cathars at Béziers (killing nearly every man, woman, and child in the town)—and the list goes on.

While the Crusaders were annihilating their fellow Europeans—destroying European cities and ancient works—the Mongols ended the Islamic Golden Age by sieging Baghdad in 1258.

Your Faith Is Futile

Paul said that "if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile" (1 Cor 15:17)—underscoring the significance of the resurrection within Christian theology and serving as a reminder of the pivotal role this event plays in the foundation of Christianity. Unfortunately for Christians, the resurrection never happened.

There are no contemporaneous accounts of the event in non-Christian sources, nor is there any physical evidence—no remains, no artifacts, nothing. The (anonymous and inconsistent) Gospels—which are the primary sources of the resurrection story—were written several decades later and, just like Paul, never even met Jesus.

All we have are mere Chinese whispers attributed to Jesus' alleged disciples who—even if they had ever existed—would've had obvious theological motivations to propagate the story, which no discerning mind should even consider to be substantial evidence for such an extraordinary claim.

"I regard Christianity as the most fatal and seductive lie that has ever yet existed—as the greatest and most impious lie... I decline to enter into any compromise or false position in reference to it—I urge people to declare open war with it."

— Friedrich Nietzsche (The Will to Power)

Well said. I just can't be bothered with all the pretending anymore.

Los orígenes Históricos de la Fanta (Fanta Soda Drink)

Fanta se originó en Alemania durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, en 1940. En ese momento, la sucursal alemana de la Coca-Cola Company estaba aislada de su sede estadounidense debido a los embargos comerciales de los Aliados, lo que hizo imposible importar jarabe de Coca-Cola. Para mantener en funcionamiento las instalaciones de producción, Max Keith, jefe de Coca-Cola GmbH en Alemania, desarrolló una nueva bebida usando ingredientes disponibles en condiciones de guerra, como la fibra de manzana y el suero. La bebida fue llamada "Fanta" derivada de la palabra alemana Fantasie, que significa imaginación.
Durante la guerra, Fanta se consumió ampliamente dentro de Alemania, incluso por los civiles que se enfrentan a escasez. Después de la guerra, la receta original desapareció, y la marca permaneció en gran medida latente. En los años 1950 y 1960, The Coca-Cola Company reintrodujo Fanta internacionalmente con nuevas fórmulas basadas en frutas. Hoy en día, Fanta es una marca global de refrescos, producida en muchos sabores en todo el mundo, en gran medida desconectada de sus orígenes de tiempos de guerra.
