Stop spreading blasphemy. Everyone knows Jesus uses Vim.

You say that as if we don't continually discover right wingers, fascists, religious bigots, and conspiracy theorists within the community.

All Open Source / Free Software is building the commons. Strong copyleft is using the weapons of the state to help the commons stay under collective ownership.

Technically it was the Free Software movement that was a form of Leftism, and Open Source was Capitalism's attempt to subsume it once it became apparent that it was capable of producing better software.

I'm pretty sure that he would use KolibriOS.

Maybe a mechanic. It was a humble, low-education kind of job, but still a step up from working the fields. Actually, I guess it could still be construction.

(And FWIW, the original Aramaic word applies to both stone and wood workers, and there weren't a lot of trees in the Nazareth area)

Sorry for taking your comment way more seriously than of needs to be:

I'd expect Modern Jesus' dad would be a welder, which is a well paid and respected field in our time that builds things while still being very blue collar.

What's a more interesting thought is about Mary's uncle. There's conspiracy theories about Jesus that stem from the potential relationship between Jesus and his granduncle. You see, Mary's uncle was a Trader, primarily bringing tin from Britannia (modern day Great Britain) to the heart of Rome - he also founded the first Christian church outside of Palestine (coincidentally in the British Isles). Its thought that Jesus apprenticed under this uncle for a long period of time and through that saw much of the "known world". It also appears to be the origin of the myth that Jesus didn't actually ascend to heaven after resurrection, but instead dipped to Britain (leading to my favorite line from A Knight's Tale: "The Pope may be French, but Jesus Christ was English").

Most of that last part is besides the point. Chances are, that guy would equate to a tech billionaire, and has a result be the main proselytizer one behalf of a modern Jesus figure.

Still a rich, kind of pervy Arab guy.

So, if we're talking OSs, pirated Windows with a billion viruses.

This is my first time seeing that term, and that's pretty great.

I'm a priest (Episcopal Church) and one of the things that I frequently remind my parishioners is that Christianity is intended to be a practice, not a belief. What's happened is that the term "Christian" has been severed from any concrete form of practice (by utilizing the whole "faith, not works" thing and misconstruing it). When Jesus says "I am the way, the truth, and the life" He's using active language (a way can only be walked, truth sought, life lived). But so many Christians have turned that saying into something about precepts.

Getting all my apostles together to test middle-out compression. It's just coincidence that we're all men!

"Y'all aren't ready for this, but your great-great-great-great..."

Christ was a leader in a workers rebellion against colonial rule, who imbued it with a spiritual angle so profound that it very arguably destroyed or completely reformed the colonizer centuries after his execution.

Eh.... Tbh Jesus wasn't much of a political revolutionary, more of a cultural one. He did condemn the tyranny of gentiles, but also urged his followers to pay their taxes to rome and to obey their demands. Saying if a Roman asks you to carry something one mile, carry it for two instead.

It seems like he was just trying to keep under the Roman radar and worked more to change the culture of local Jewish communities.

Jesus would have probably digged FOSS

Probably wouldn't really care about technology very much unless it was being used to feed the poor. He'd probably be horrified how far we have progressed with technology, but are still failing to provide basic care for the needy.

I swear that’s some “Hook (film)” bangerang storytelling.

I don’t think Jesus would be generally pro FOSS, because it’s primarily funded by and taken advantage of by corporations.

Geez, Picard Maneuver's comment was bad enough, but you just had to go and twist the knife!

At least copyleft-licensed (e.g. GPL), as opposed to permissively-licensed (e.g. BSD), Open Source software is about as anti-corporate as it's possible to get. That's why Apple switched from bash to zsh, for example: they wanted to get rid of the copyleft. It's also why stuff like Alpine Linux is a dangerous trend.

I think Jesus would be very fond of copyleft licensing, as it is specifically designed to withhold control from those who would exploit it and thus keep users ungovernable.

He said to stop using money

"Render unto Caesar" seems to be the opposite. He said to stop owning shit.

Jesus was a failed prophet who kept saying heaven will arrive on earth imminently ("this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened"—that generation passed and none of those things he predicted would happen did) and it never did and trashed a temple because of his beliefs and that got him killed by the state. He literally trashed the temple because that was a prophecy he proclaimed and tried to fulfill it. He also said to get into heaven when the world ended was to be good and not to be rich so he was quite the populist in that respect.

If he were alive today he'd be a youtuber talking about UFOs and aliens coming to save humanity because they hate nukes and saying that all we have to do is be good people to have the aliens save us. And he probably uses open source software too.

Learning about the bible made me the agnostic I am today haha, but I wont go as far to say that there is nothing beyond death. I have no idea where humans get consciousness from and why Im not living my life as an ant and am instead living as a human being in the 2026th year of our lord

Many US Christians have no idea what the Bible says and rely entirely on what their pastor/priest tells them. They're shitty hateful people who wear Christianity as an identity instead of actually living by its teachings, and just assume their deity is just like them.

No no, that's because he's omniscient (all-knowing).

Omnipotence (all-powerful) is why he wins every lawsuit despite having a legal disadvantage due to the omniscience you brought up originally.

But maybe he's into open source and just wants people to treat the authors better rather than port all their projects to a more memory-safe platform.

you forgot the "btw"
