Thanks to the wonders of using AI to generate art, I bring to you depictions of Andrew Tate as Yeshua Ibn Mariam (Yeshua, son of Mariam), more commonly known as Jesus Christ. Sadly, some of the results make him look a bit like Thom Yorke, but without the lazy eye. They were a bit disconcerting and have been deleted, but what has been seen cannot be unseen.

I don't know about you, but I think Paul Kidby could have painted this.

Andrew Tate as Jeshua Ibn Mariam AKA Jesus Christ on a Saint Andrew's Cross (for all you folks with religious paraphilias)

The one that's closest to what I imagined, although the manga version isn't bad either

"People always make such a fuss about the second coming of Christ, perhaps because he said he was tired, rolled over and died for a couple of days. Whores can have that effect on you."
 — Former boss and abusive, megalomaniac misogynistic Abrahamist with a delusion that he is god

Piers Morgan asks Tate about the "women are the property of men" thing and gets his arse handed to him, a classic example of why I don't believe most people claiming to be Christian are. Tate, however, does seem to genuinely believe it, because it's in the Christian bible (which it is) and seems surprised Piers Morgan doesn't, despite claiming to be Christian. You can't both be Christian and not believe what's in the scripture, "the innerant word of God" that governs your religion. Which one is it? Then again, Abrahamists are known liars, but Morgan gets caught out (and called out) on his.

“In truth, there was only one christian and he died on the cross.”
 — Friedrich Nietzsche; The Antichrist

Having actually read some of the Christian bible (which most Christians don't, because doing so is extremely unsettling and undermines their faith), I was pretty firmly with Nietzsche on that one until I encountered Andrew Tate's content (specifically seeing him interviewed by Piers Morgan, whom somehow manages to look like more of an arsehole than Tate). Since what they claim to believe and about what their religion is ... is so clearly at odds with what it actually is according to scripture, I had a hard time believing people claiming to be Christian are genuinely anything other than willfully ignorant and pathological liars. Tate, however, seems sincere in his belief (and he doesn't shy away from the fact the Christian bible is full of horrifically misogynistic content that underpins what he said/taught to impressionable young boys, much like religious leaders have for thousands of years). Plus, he is horrifically deluded (if not criminally insane) and in jail, so I guess Dan Barker (born again Atheist and author of a number of books on why Abrahamic religion is pernicious bullshit) is right about "if you genuinely believed in the teachings of Christianity in the bible, you'd be in jail" (although I'm paraphrasing here).

“When I hear that a man is religious, I conclude he is a rascal!”
 — David Hume; Philosopher

That's putting it mildly, but yes, spot on. If you say "Christian", I think "Andrew Tate": Someone with one of the most vile (bloodthirsty, homophobic, misogynistic, racist, warmongering, vengeful ...) philosophies/world views on Earth and yet, paradoxically, one of the most honest and genuine as far as I can tell (although the latter applies exclusively to Tate). I reckon he'd do well as the next pope.

Why, for the "love" of a non-existent god?

"God is love", Christians claim. My left foot!

“I do understand what love is, and that is one of the reasons I can never again be a Christian. Love is not self denial. Love is not blood and suffering. Love is not murdering your son [or your prophet's son] to appease your own vanity. Love is not hatred or wrath, consigning billions of people to eternal torture because they have offended your ego or disobeyed your rules [or do not believe in you]. Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being.”
 — Dan Barker, Losing Faith in Faith: From Preacher to Atheist

“You can cite a hundred references to show that the biblical God is a bloodthirsty tyrant, but if they can dig up two or three verses that say 'God is love', they will claim that you are taking things out of context!”
 — Ibid

Given all the god-awful crap that is in the definitely not "good" book (far, far more than content that justifies it being considered so), I still don't understand why anyone whom doesn't genuinely believe — just shows up for the ceremony, pageantry and ritual of religion — would claim to believe something so abhorrently vile. Just be honest about it, yeah? Then again, I do understand why someone whom has been indoctrinated to lie in order to gain the approval of some capricious, fickle, insecure, jealous and vindictive (among many other things) imaginary and invisible supposedly omnipresent, omnipotent and ever-watchful sky wizard might have difficulty with that. I know full well that abusive relationships with uneven power dynamics are incredibly difficult to leave, but believe me; you can do so much better than some bronze-age Patriarch named Yahweh/Yehowah. You can learn to be your own person and not have to be a slave to someone whom treats you atrociously (if he even notices your existence in the first place, which he doesn't, because he isn't real).
