“What a bloody radical idea that was. It was ridiculous. Some of the earliest critiques of Christianity very very early were sort of the figure of the crucified Jesus with a donkey head on. It was just ridiculous that this was the most humiliating punishment and what this is supposed to be God.

You know, another thing, the first shall be last, the last shall be first. And I don't know, sometimes with Christianity at the moment in the US, it seems like this is a little bit forgotten, but I mean, Holland talks about what an impact it had on the Roman Empire”
