Prepare to be inquisitioned for heresy. Not for insulting Christianity, but for calling Jesus a demigod.
Did someone say... heresy?
Isn't he both god and man, supposedly? Is that not the definition of a demigod?
A demigod is (roughly) 50% man 50% god. Jesus is supposed to be 100% man and 100% god. That's less of a demigod and more of a contradiction.
That's not a contradiction if they aren't related. Is god a species? I don't think so. It's like saying a cat is 100% cat and 100% cute. They're different things. He's not a human-god hybrid. He's a god who also happens to be human (at that time).
(Before people go assuming I'm arguing on the validity of all this, it's stupid. I'm an atheist. The whole thing doesn't really make sense. I'm just correcting a logical mistake.)
Yeah, but then we get into "what is human?" Last time I checked, humans can't walk on water, raise the dead, or resurrect themselves.
A miserable little pile of secrets!
I don't think those are part of the definition of human. If we develop the ability to walk on water, for example, does that make us not human? I don't think it would. Human is being of the species homo sapiens and nothing else. That does not definitionally preclude being a god.
It's not a contradiction, it just depends on what the meaning of the word "is" is.

Found Bill Clinton's Lemmy acct.
Even if Jesus is 100% man and 100% god simultaneously cause reasons, that still means his composition is 50% god and 50% man, which still fits the Demi god definition.
Except that he's also 100% the Holy Spirit (which is also 100% God and 100% Jesus), so he's like...67% God/ethereal being?
IDK, maybe Jesus had DID/was a system the whole time.
if i was an omnipotent god, i would try to break logic at least once too
Ever heard of the satanic temple? An atheist religion. Heres their 7 tenets
One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.
One's body is inviolable, subject to one's own will alone.
The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.
Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.
People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.
Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
Why aren't they all vegan?
wow, the tenets are incredibly based, the rules are... less so
What rules are you referring to?
Oh nvm I guess they edited them out of their comment
search out eleven-rules-of-earth
They're not necessarily horrible; a number of them are good advice, some are a little strange
There's one about magic.
Honestly, the 7 Tenets are so based, I think the entirety of humanity would do well to use them as their default.
That's because they're from two different sects. The Rules of the Earth come from the Church of Satan, and the 7 Tenets come from The Satanic Temple.
ah crap, my bad. I'm going to edit that.. sorry.
that wasn't a command :) more like ordering at the bar :) I kinda love the Tenets :)
i'll take one temple please...
So that means that jesus total is 200%, which can be still correctly rappresented as 100%, so he is still a demigod
So they're just bad at math. Got it
