Piso and the Flavian Myth
The Joseph Atwill's Piso/Flavian theory falls apart as soon as you find out what the character and mission of men like Moses, Jesus really was. They agreed with each other but the Pharisees did not agree with Jesus because they did not know him.
The makers of the film Zeitgeist try to make comparisons with many other characters of ancient history to prove Jesus was a fictional character but the sources and information they present as fact is more often incorrect or entirely fiction.
Atwill and his followers mix facts and ignore others. They fail to explain the well documented activities of early Christians who were well known Historical characters and what they were doing. They mislead people about the persecutions of Christians and seem ignorant of the court issue that got peaceful people executed by the tens of thousands.
Many people are quick to jump on board their thesis for a variety of reasons but the whole truth reveals they are confused and dependent upon speculation and leaps of logic.
They are right that pagan ideas crept into what began posing as Christianity after Flavius Salerus Constantinus' First Council of Nicaea that attracted only a small number of Bishops who convened in Nicaea in Bithynia by Flavius Salerus Constantinus.
The people advocating that the Flavians created Christianity are mixing the creation of the Church of Flavius Salerus Constantinus with real Christians.
A thousand years later the created Church Constantinus would murder millions of real Christians during centuries of inquisitions that were a living Church practicing Pure Religion. If people had been taught the truth about the Gospel of the Kingdom and the reason for the Christian conflict Atwill's suggestion that rebellious and violent Christians were persecuted would be seen as patently false.
Joseph Atwill's claim that there are dozens of parallels between the Gospels and the history of Titus and his military require a huge stretch of imagination. They prove nothing but the desperate hope of selling more books.
Rome was had become a Welfare State. That had not only made the Caesar's gods but made the people subject to the Imperial Cult of Rome in much the same way as the modern image of Rome.
Modern Christians do not know why they called these men gods and who is there actual gods today. Early Christians were practicing Private welfare instead of Public religion. It was the Public religion which involves the Covetous Practices that made men Merchandise and curses their children with debt.
