7 Apophis - once an extremely powerful Goa'uld System Lord. Arch enemy of the Tau'ri, he impersonated the ancient Egyptian deity of chaos, darkness and fire.

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Apophis is a false god. Say it with me, it’s what you really believe.

[–] emotional_soup_88@programming.dev 16 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You will pay for your insolence. With your life.

[–] Zanshi@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Jaffa, kree!

...why aren't you kreeing?!

We're past such formalities.

[–] TransNeko@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

what about the Ori? or Sokar? or Setesh? or even Bal?

I shall deal with the Ori after I have conquered the System Lords.

5 has the best quote. I don't agree with the sentiment (most days), but it is absolutely hilarious: " [...] democracy basically means government by the people, of the people, for the people... but the people are... retarded."

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 38 points 6 days ago

Taken per capita, probably LaVey. Taken as "Total harm done" it's Jesus, no contest

[–] humminglady@feddit.online 20 points 6 days ago

I would honestly agree. The fanfiction is getting out of hand.

Trick question, the answer is always Beyonce

You take that back or so help me I will end you

if we're talking about lemmy, it's Stalin

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 25 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Jesus while he lived or modern? cause that's two completely different groups of people.

[–] WR5@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Well sure, otherwise the first group would be really old right now.

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

I mean most of these people's followers aren't around anymore.

[–] wer2@lemmy.zip 8 points 5 days ago

Marie Curie's fans are practically radioactive.

(explanation: satanists are generally chill, and he looks like Kane 🤣)

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago (4 children)

Jesus, by far. The people who have been murdered in his name is probably close to or over a good billion, right?

He's not really a "foundational figure of Christianity" though, his image was just co-opted by the Roman empire which then created the religion also co-opting the actual "Jewish revival" Jesus was at the core of (bringing the fundamentals of monotheism back into mind and expanding the teachings to everyone, not just a small select community).

[–] bestboyfriendintheworld@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Jesus never asked for wars in his name though. It’s not part of his teachings.

Christianity changed a lot once it became the dominant religion of the Roman Empire.

However Christianity also brought a lot of positive social changes with the focus on forgiveness and helping the unfortunate for example.

It was spread by conquest, but also peaceful friendly missionaries. These missionaries often invented a writing system for the illiterate people they visited.

Oh yeah the man was a prophet of peace, I'm not putting it on him. 👍

Which one has people knocking on my door again?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

That's probably those damned Rasputin's Witnesses.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Lol Anton LeVay was such an edgy loser

[–] ThirdConsul@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 days ago

A carney mentalist who became a sex pope?

What did he lose?

[–] IntriguedIceberg@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

I'd argue that by mere statistic, Jesus wins this one.

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

Jesus has trump so, jesus

[–] Devconsole@sh.itjust.works 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] mlg@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Hey at least its not Windows lol

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Agreed

I use arch btw

[–] itisileclerk@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (3 children)

For fuck sake, blond Jesus? This is (one of many) proof(s) that they are worshiping imaginary god and his son. They imagine the son with blond hair, I am guessing speaking English and talking about America.

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

Blond Jesus has a way more toxic following than Historically Accurate Jesus.

Of the top: Catholicism, evangelicalism, Mormonism, Jehovah’s witnesses,…

I mean this list goes on and on. They all have one guy in common.

[–] notaviking@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I feel the inclusion of Jesus does this list a disservice, could have been like a Buddha, Mohamed, Jesus.... List and I think that would have been better because of the league Jesus is playing in. Basically skews the list.

But the first 5 in the list is an awesome list to choose from. I would say Rasputin due to the shit show Russia was going to be put through that I feel he was the straw that broke the camel's back and led to cascading events I feel still persists

This is a terrifying post to comment on

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

[controversial reply with a healthy mix of upvotes and downvotes that’s ambiguous enough that you’re not sure if they’re serious, confused, or bad at sarcasm]

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Anton LaVey's crowd are chill as hell. Just a little cringe but whomst amogus has not had notions of doing catholic mass naked except for a mask and a cape?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That's like defending Christianity based on the charity and love. Yeah they've got some awesome bits, the problem is that they has to mix Ayn Rand bs into their ritual orgies

No people of color? WTF racist

[–] Aeao@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Colin Mockery in square one.

I recommend studying Crowley and Osho.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 5 points 6 days ago

I don't know but I find number three wildly amusing. Some parts of my former edgy 16 year old libertarian atheist refuse to die.
