"Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class --->hated for their abominations, called Christians<---"

What did he mean by this?
>>
He misunderstood Transubstantiation and thought they were cannibals
>>
They were the Jews of his day
>>
>>1386404
>>1386407

But what were they doing? It is clear that if you do the things currently written down in the bible, you don't come off as an abomination to people, which should be the commandments given by the saviour.
>>
>>1386414
They were being problematic to Roman culture and religion

(and Nero needed a scapegoat)
>>
>>1386360
He meant Chrestians
>>
>>1386548

Oh I heard that one.

Chrestus, the leader of a rebellion through which you attained salvation through faith.
>>
>>1386558
Not actually specified in the passage.
At least avoid dishonesty by not automatically assuming that Christians/Christus is the only correct rendering of the demonstrably edited work even if it might just be a typo.

>>1386615
>demonstrably edited work

Meaning that we are to completely ignore it then and not assume what you want us to assume? Because that sure as fuck is the only honest approach when it comes to shit like this.
>>
>>1386414
morality is subjective, and to Romans Christians were morally outrageous
