 @c6275ce1 whoops, no it isn’t. Those aren’t the words of Christ but the words of Paul, written 30 years after Christ’s death. That quote has been changed to read “me” instead of “Christ”.

I’m no fan of right-wing Christianity (or, in fact, ANY Christianity) but presenting false evidence gives the fascists a nice easy straw man to hang their argument on. 
 That same argument could used against the entirety of the new testament. Especially since none of it was written by those who had first hand contact with Jesus (if he even existed at).
