minus-squareZozano@lemy.lollinkfedilinkarrow-up22·edit-28 months agoThe metaphors are also hilarious. Jesus is “the lamb”, but he also guides his own flock as a shepherd. Sheep have a habit of mindlessly following the group (lol). But… You know what the shepherd does, with the sheep, right? He’s not taking care of his flock because they’re pets. If you have spent any time with goats you’ll know they’re much cooler than sheep. Goats are so much fun.

Ia! 🐙🌊🌠). Late stage Jesus was Apollonian rather than Dionysian so Satan, now a proper antagonist, inherited all the chthonic stuff. It’s also why (Paulonian) Jesus is about asceticism where Satan is about indulgence.
