      No no. Jesus was born on 0AD. This kid was born on 2AD. Jesus would have been 2 years old, so he hadn’t yet died.

      Whats more concerning, is this is being posted by one of the kids parents. Which means THEY were born sometime in BCE. Which means they were alive and old enough to have kids when Jesus was born.

      WHY ARE THEY NOT REVEALING THEIR TRICKS OF IMMORTALITY???

      And also, why are they threatening their kids life?

        I thought Jesus was born a few years after his official birth year though?

          About 34 years later, yeah. But it was also 40 days after his death. Making Jesus a zombie. Or, alternatively, it makes religion as a whole self admitted bullshit. Your call, christians.

            There are other options besides those two, like not having accurate historical records to know the actual date of birth and death, so that there are lots of conflicting accounts.

            I agree that religion in general is a crock used by charlatans to control people.
            But I suspect that this isn’t the gotcha you think it is, especially because I don’t think that the precise dates really matter to the religion.

        A small correction and „fun fact“: there is no year zero. 1 BC is followed by 1 AD. Consequently things like the turn of the millennium happen a year after we celebrate them. But people found that weird.

          Sounds like that just means 0 AD = 1 BC rather than there not being a 0 AD. Could have -1000 AD, too.

            that’s ISO. if you’re putting the AD, 0 is not valid. the BC is specifically there because -AD isn’t a thing.

        The disturbing answer to both of your questions is drinking blood of children keeps you young. It’s all about adrenochrome and you can but shouldn’t google it

          adrenochrome

          Several small-scale studies (involving 15 or fewer test subjects) conducted in the 1950s and 1960s reported that adrenochrome triggered psychotic reactions such as thought disorder and derealization

          Interesting. This is probably what makes people, who would normally not kill or do other horrible acts, to do so in conditions of extreme distress and then later have a feeling of it never have actually happened, making them still be able to live life with about the same personality as before.
