I love this take. I encourage you to read the Bible, especially starting with the New Testament.
The parallels with your comment about ‘faith, believe’ and the corrupt institution of religion (the Pharisee) against Jesus is incredible.
The Bible is a timeless book of well documented history. Whether you choose to “believe” it is the inherent word of God is up to you. I happen to have read it and do believe that.
I have read the bible, that is why I believe that Jesus is a good example and that he was a revolutionary and if he woke up he would destroy everything that has been built around him to enrich a few.
If I believe in the existence of Jesus, obviously it is undeniable given all the historical data we have and his influence, another thing is to think that he was God, but nevertheless he was a very brave man who fought against nothing less than against Rome.

I don’t disagree to a large extend. Everything is susceptible to cooption including Bitcoin. When Jesus returns he will tear down the mega churches that take advantage of the poor and ignorant for money and power, while teaching false messages. (Much like he drove out the money changers in the temple) That was also one of the few instances in the Bible where Jesus demonstrates actionable physical anger.
Actually Jesus ended up being more against the Jewish institution of region.
I encourage you to listen to this recent message from my church about the deity of Jesus. He was in complete control the whole time. The actually message is from 25 minutes to about 1 hour.
