"gradually" lmao the directive to convert heathens even (especially) if it kills them to save them from Hell dates to Roman times, the idea that virtuous nonbelievers could even possibly go anywhere else only got embraced in doctrine a thousand years later and then all the Protestants split off because they hated the idea of actually doing good or evil mattering so much

You don't even have to specify non-believers, Christians have a long standing history of murdering each other over minor differences in dogma. For example, a central debate in Christianity is whether Jesus was a god in a human shape, or a human with divine qualities. Seems like an insignificant difference, but people were legit tortured and killed for getting that question wrong.

It's kind of comical really, the christians are really pissed off about this song (and also the Satan Shoes)...

But they are the ones fueling the songs popularity... like the song and video would probably just faded away pretty quickly if it wasn't for the outrage... But now everyone has to see the video...

Lil Nas X will be pleased to know that he is number one in the UK. Being gay and doing crimes does pay, it's official. We were going to hell anyway, might as well make the best of it.

Edit: also number one in Ireland, apparently.

I mean, yeah. That is gradually. Roman times were several thousand years after the development of religion and myths like the punishment of Sisyphus in the afterlife (for being an especially wicked person/ruler) was already ancient by the time Rome Christianized.

While a particularly bad fellow might get a particularly bad punishment, the common view in the classical Greek world seems to have been that most people ended up in hades. For example see the Odyssey, where heroes specifically called out as being particularly good are there. Mostly the new testament uses the word "hades" where it's translated to hell and the intended audience was significantly helenized so probably had a fair understanding of the idea.

I always figured that was a selling point of Christianity in like 100 AD. Afterlife in poo poo hades or sweet heaven? The choice is easy.

there were mystery religions that predated christianity where you would go to a temple and like look at a piece of corn for 5 days and do secret stuff and then at the end of it you were given eternal life in sweet heaven in exchange for not telling anybody about the secret stuff you did during those 5 days. they were v popular. it was really when Constantine converted and being Christian meant sweet job promotions that the religion gained steam really quickly.
