I don’t think there is any relationship between the primitive Christianity of Rome and the Greek New Testament, nor is there any relationship between the Roman primitive Christianity and Paul.
Throughout history, there were many Christs and several messiahs, and according to the rosacrucians it was the belief that “salvation” was going to come through the Egyptians instead of the Hebrews

This book unearths many false historical narratives and mythologies of the bible incuding the Exodus, which never took place. and there are not any evidences about the existence of Moses and other biblical figures
The concept of apocalyptic has been twisted because it was a type of literature that existed in ancient history, and instead of bringing justice, it was a literary style of hope
The rumours that Trump and his family have made a fortune or inside trading or krypton curryency. They are not speculation, there is solid evidences and the New York Times just published an article detailing everything, they have earned in a few months more than 4 billion dollars

The Protestant Reformation in England and Ireland
The New Testament has been arranged in the wrong order; the letter of Paul should be first, and then the gospel
While the most widely documented “martyrs of Latin America” in recent history are Roman Catholic, particularly during the 20th-century conflicts, Anglican martyrs and missionary casualties in the region include, most notably, the five American missionaries killed in Ecuador in 1956. The Anglican Church in the region has also seen deaths related to political violence and social justice work.
Key Anglican and Related Missionary Martyrs in Latin America:
The Ecuador Five (1956): Missionaries Jim Elliot, Pete Fleming, Ed McCully, Nate Saint, and Roger Youderian were killed by the Waodani tribe in Ecuador. Their story is often cited as a profound example of missionary sacrifice in the region.Anglican Episcopal Church of Bolivia (2026): The church announced the passing of Diocesan Bishop Walter Toro Martínez, the first Bolivian national to become bishop, who was honoured for his dedication and witness to the gospel.
Wider Context of Martyrs in Latin America: While thousands of Christian workers—predominantly Catholic priests, nuns, and laypeople—were killed in Latin America between 1962 and the 1990s due to their commitment to marginalised communities, Anglican and protestant missionaries and pastors often worked alongside these efforts in indigenous regions.The 20th century saw massive violence against religious figures across Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Central America) by authoritarian governments. While many Catholic martyrs are canonised, many more anonymous martyrs from various denominations, including Anglicans, died due to their involvement in social justice and pastoral care
Priests in Argentina play a significant role in social and religious life, most notably through the curas villeros (slum priests) who work in impoverished neighbourhoods. The Catholic Church in Argentina has a complex history, marked by the influential role of priests in social justice and the “Movement of Priests for the Third World”. Pope Francis, formerly Jorge Bergoglio, is the first Argentine pope.
Curas Villeros (Slum Priests): These priests live and work in Buenos Aires’ villas miseria (slums), aiming to bring hope, education, and social aid, such as Padre Pepe, a prominent figure in these communities.
Historical Context (1967-1976): The Movement of Priests for the Third World (MSTM) blended Catholic reform with social activism, aligned with left-wing Peronism, and worked actively in slum areas.The Dirty War (1976-1983): During Argentina’s military dictatorship, while some church members were aligned with the government, others were persecuted and killed, including those in the Martyrs of La Rioja.
Pope Francis’ Role: Before becoming Pope, Jorge Bergoglio served as the Archbishop of Buenos Aires (1998-2013) and was known for supporting the curas villeros and encouraging a humble approach to ministry, often travelling by bus and visiting soup kitchens.
Trump and several members of his cabinet and the US Congress are getting richer with inside trading.
His younger son is already a multimilionare and he does not work in a factory; he is a college student, and they also have a military contract with the Pentagon, the white house is a cash register
They are members of the parasite class, and millions of workers are saying that rich people are not corrupt because they have money; therefore, the corrupt ones are themselves
In my dictionry it is called alienation, brainwashing and class conciliation. This is a bizarre world. In clinical/medical psychology, they have a class on bizarre personality.
Someone said that the world was going to experience a great ideological regression, and it is already taking place; people do not even care if they are electing crooks, criminals, mafiosos, and thieves

CDM – ‘I think that the SPGB pamphlet, Socialism and Religion, is more than enough for the working class.’
Fortunately you and the SPGB don’t get to decide what is ‘more than enough for the working class’. Such arrogance is not helpful.———————————————————
You have your own opinion, and I have my own opinion, stick yurselves to your opinions. The SPGB has said that without Marx and Engels, they would have created their own version of socialism. Is that arrogance?
I think that the SPGB pamphlet, Socialism and Religion, is more than enough for the working class. The book How the Gods Were Created, based on historical materialism, is enough for the working class. Engels and Kautsky on Christianity is enough for the working class

Iran Says It Won’t Negotiate With ‘Erratic’ Trump After Genocidal Threat to ‘Blow Up’ Whole Country
“Our assessment is that Trump effectively lacks both a coherent plan and the capacity to secure even a temporary agreement,” an Iranian official said.I do not think that Trump is as crazy and stupid as they are saying; he knows what he is doing, and he is making a lot of profits, and his fortune has increased. With the Venezuelan oil, he is also making a lot of profits.
Trump is not a politician; he is a businessman. He has failed in several business ventures, but through those failures, he has also made profits. The leftists only concentrate on his mental health, but they do not hit the bottom of the real situation. He is a member of the US ruling class, and he is making profits like any member of the capitalist class
Israel is not dominating the USA; it is the opposite way. The pigeons can not shoot back at the shotgun. Sometimes, the USA lets them do their own actions for the benefit of the US capitalist class; without the US aid, Israel could have become a third-world country.
The Russians and the Chinese are also part of the same game, and they are making profits too, and they are selling parts and rockets to the Iranian and they are providing logistic informations to the Iranians, and the Chinese are obtaining cheap oil from the Iranian. It is capitalism as usual
The Ukrainians can launch thousands of drones and missiles, but they are already defeated, and the Russians are already holding the best part of Ukraine, and they have what they wanted, and they have access to the seas for their navy fleet. There is already a world war with hundreds of conflicts around the world; the time of WW2 is gone forever. Big warships and tanks are not needed anymore ( even more, Obama said it too when he was president ).
The only way to win a war is when both sides confront each other in the ground, and the US is not ready and prepared for that type of confrontation, it can become a suicidal mission, in Venezuela it was easier because they were able to buy some government officials and militaries and peoples did not support Maduro anymore, but the situation in Iran is totally different

PS, can I unify all your thoughts, turn them into a single article and translate it for the internet?
https://medium.com/@s-blog/how-protestant-ethics-shaped-modern-capitalism-5e8c600d8956. How protestants shaped modern capitalism
Max Weber’s work “The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism” (1905) presents a causal mechanism that connects religious beliefs, particularly the Protestant Reformation, with the emergence and development of modern capitalism. To understand how Weber’s mechanism can be explained using the Macro-Micro-Macro model, we must analyse the relationship between social structures (macro), individual behaviour (micro), and the resulting societal consequences (macro). Overall, Weber challenges the Marxist materialist analysis and instead highlights how ideas, viewed through a sociological perspective on religion, contribute to the development towards modern capitalism.
“The European Reformation, where the protestant cause became the ideology of the revolutionary bourgeoisie” Max Weber also wrote about that, tooThe point is that socialists oppose the death penalty and violence. Left and right are against the killing of their own, but support the killing of others. Class struggle and political struggle are the real struggles of the world’s working class. The so called anti fascists are also violent, like the fascists
https://www.marxists.org/archive/martov/1918/07/death-penalty.htm. Down with the death penalty, Martov
Julius Martov’s 1918 article, “Down with the Death Penalty!”, was a principled, defiant condemnation of the Bolshevik regime’s use of capital punishment during the Red Terror. Martov argued that the death penalty was “savage barbarism” and a tool of political terror employed by leaders who had lost the trust of the people.
In our time, the killing of a corporation’s CEO and political leaders is useless. Capitalism continues as usual
Leon Trotsky was assassinated by the same political machinery that he supported, and he was part of the killing of the Bolsheviks and the workers who opposed the soviet state
