    Here’s another one: if crucifixion was considered an established way of brutally killing one, why is his suffering considered so profound, when presumably several others had gone through the same? I know it’s about the return, but he could have done that after falling into a ravine or something mundane like that.

      I think it’s obvious looking at it this way Jesus is either

      a) an amalgamation of various characters smooshed together to tell a more clear story, sort of like king Arthur…

      b) a real specific story that just got a lot of attention like George Floyd or Eric Garner.
