Jesus vs Batman (i.imgur.com)

Batman is a Marvel comic book hero
KILL THE INFIDELS! BURN THEM!
[–]thadood 119 points120 points121 points 1 year ago
That part killed me the most, especially his follow-up correcting them and then saying he never said that Jesus was a hero of the Qur'an.
[–][deleted] 71 points72 points73 points 1 year ago
Especially cause Jesus is in the Qur'an.

As far as I understand, he does makes guest appearances, but he certainly isn't one of Qu'ran's original characters.

In the Quran, on those usually blank pages at the end of all books a young Jesus is building a table. Samuel Jackson walks up to him, tells Jesus he's starting a new religion and that he wants Jesus on the team.
[–]falor42 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Actually his is the third or fourth most mentioned prophet in the book; I can't remember if him or Abraham get more face time. Strangely Mohammed and Joseph (the technicolor'd dream coat) are the most mentioned; Joseph only because his story is a loooong book.
[–]nermid 15 points16 points17 points 1 year ago
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who saw that as the low point of the discussion.

Of the two, Batman and Jesus, Jesus has the bigger claim to being a Marvel superhero: Bible Tales for Young Folk #2 by Atlas Comics, which would later become Marvel Comics.
[–]Gobluebro 214 points215 points216 points 1 year ago*
Why do I keep laughing at "Actually Batman is FICTIONAL, unless you're a 2nd grader."?!?!?
[–]Toasterferret 80 points81 points82 points 1 year ago
I was waiting for Ronald to ask for any historical evidence that Jesus existed...
[–]ElliotNess 171 points172 points173 points 1 year ago
I think it's really great that he never took that route. Instead of challenging their beliefs and calling them silly, he just assumed that each character had equal merit to exist, and then examined who would win in a fight. That's classy.
[–]thatguyworks 26 points27 points28 points 1 year ago
Precisely. The debate isn't theological, even though many want it to be.

I was hoping Ronald would reply with Jesus is fictional unless you're a 2nd grader.
[–]rhythmguy 43 points44 points45 points 1 year ago
Sadly, he would have to reply with "Jesus is fictional unless you are a moron", which probably wouldn't have led to such a vibrant "debate".
[–]Peatore 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
So if he was a moron Jesus would be real?
[–]CaribbeanCaptain 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
So wait - Batman wasn't fictional until I graduated 2nd grade?? Holy shit! I didn't know how good I had it back then!
[–]DoctorCocktopus 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
No, Batman wasn't fictional during the time in which Ronald was in 2nd grade.
[–]JimmerUK 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
I'm so angry with Ronald for leaving 2nd grade. He should have stayed there forever for the people's benefit.
[–][deleted] 530 points531 points532 points 1 year ago
How can they even argue against this? If a Roman soldier can beat the shit out of Jesus, then Batman certainly can.
[–]LiveOnSteak 177 points178 points179 points 1 year ago
"But Jesus let himself be beat, to save us! That means he is more powerful."
[–]phld21 74 points75 points76 points 1 year ago
More powerful in a Quaker, I'm morally stronger than you sort of way. In a fist fight that argument has little value. It's all about physical power. (Unless you consider the media response. If Batman beat the crap out of Jesus I'm pretty sure he would be attacked on an epic scale by all of his followers. This would then be followed up by counter attacks by Batman's followers, and a century old war would begin with both sides blaming the other.)
[–]Funshine_bear 40 points41 points42 points 1 year ago
Not going to say i believe this (this is /r/atheism don't want to get a bunch of down votes). But I was thinking, Jesus was raised by Joseph for a good portion of his life in which he was a carpenter, a trade at the time used crude tools and brute force to build things out of wood. Would i be totally wrong to say that Jesus may have been ripped? not the humble lanky white dude we present him as? -- not to mention he was Jewish.
Also I'm almost positive that a Jesus did exist he just wasn't the son of God.
[–]Dunceparty 53 points54 points55 points 1 year ago
not the humble lanky white dude we present him as?
A bit off topic, but why is Jesus always depicted as looking like Kurt Cobain, when in fact he was Middle Eastern?

[–]Boshaft 11 points12 points13 points 1 year ago
You have power tools, but food is much more plentiful now than then. I'd guess that a carpenter would have had a very low body fat percentage- most people did- but be more muscular than the average person of his time.
[–]AsAChemicalEngineer 10 points11 points12 points 1 year ago
You can't maintain muscle without adequate food.
[–]JesusHadALittleLamb 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
You don't think he had adequate food? But the man fed 5000 people with only 5 loaves of bread! Weren't you reading?!

The part where Julie says "He has the power to take away our life at any time, any day. But it's because of His grace that we our [sic] given a chance to carry our cross and follow the lord." sounds like textbook Stockholm Syndrome... from Wikipedia: "The following are viewed as the conditions necessary for Stockholm syndrome to occur. -Hostages who develop Stockholm syndrome often view the perpetrator as giving life by simply not taking it. In this sense, the captor becomes the person in control of the captive’s basic needs for survival and the victim’s life itself."
[–]LMon 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
That's the bit that really got to me. I can't understand how people talk like that and "god is so great", "god is all powerful". It's just sycophancy.

Fact: Actually, Batman has risen from the dead before with the use of the Lazarus Pit, and the process was a lot quicker than three days.
Fact: A forfeiture due to personal philosophy qualifies as a loss on Jesus' part. So, you admit that Bruce Wayne would win?
[–]Assirrax 99 points100 points101 points 1 year ago
Very, very amusing. I love the argument and how they continued to insist the big difference was that Jesus was real.
[–]s0n- 14 points15 points16 points 1 year ago
This is always the same when this argument comes up, but he's REAL! My take on it is that Jesus of Nazareth, the man, could be real. As for Jesus Christ, ehh that's not my cup of tea.
[–]Amunium 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago

If you asked her that question, she would undoubtedly say it's because no matter how hard you try to be good, you still fall short of perfection, and even the smallest sin will taint you in God's eyes and make you deserve hell.
[–]neutronfish 55 points56 points57 points 1 year ago
Ronald was being ridiculous. There's no way that the Batmobile could travel across the world in a few hours.
[–]Jeccems 55 points56 points57 points 1 year ago
He might have meant the Batwing. It's certainly capable of incredibly fast transcontinental flight.
[–]Kimano 20 points21 points22 points 1 year ago
Don't they essentially combine as the same vehicle several times?
[–]Jeccems 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
I'm not 100% on my Batman mythos, and I would be very unsurprised to see the Batmobile and Batwing combining, but I believe they're most often shown as distinct vehicles.
For example, here (old) and here(new) they appear to be entirely separate.
[–]Garin2010 50 points51 points52 points 1 year ago
That [: after Julie's statements enrages me.
Could you imagine someone saying that with a smirk on their face? I would want to do nothing more than knee them in the mouth.

[–]WeNeedNewRepublic99 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
But perhaps it would be extra sensitive to fire.
[–]Devotia 17 points18 points19 points 1 year ago
Doubtful. Spiders would be bug/poison, which fire is 2x effective against, but a turtle is clearly water, which would lead to normal effectiveness against bug and 1/2 effectiveness against poison. A bug/water Spurdle would be weak against rock, electric and flying, while a poison/water Spurdle would be weak against Ground, electric, and psychic.
Either way, you'd be better off electrocuting it than burning it.
[–]SirShanksalot 252 points253 points254 points 1 year ago
What I don't understand is why when they claim batman is fictional, that he doesn't point out that the same could be said for Jesus, so that it was beside the point.
[–]gurgar78 338 points339 points340 points 1 year ago
He did to a lesser extent when he said that he has as much faith in Batman as they have in Jesus.
It just kinda went over their heads. Which isn't surprising.
[–]HMSChurchill 73 points74 points75 points 1 year ago
I always love how even if you were to say something alone the lines of "Well, you believe Jesus is real and Batman is fictional but I believe Batman is real and Jesus is fictional" most Christians STILL wouldn't even begin to pick up on what you're arguing or doubt for a second the reality of Jesus.
I have no problem with religion in general or people with faith, it's this kind of complete numbing of your critical thinking that really bothers me.
[–]czyivn 83 points84 points85 points 1 year ago
The bible is like 2000 years old and has been translated multiple times. Batman comics are much more recent, are available in their original and un-translated form, and even have artwork of the events taking place. It's clear to me which would be considered more reliable as a historical document.
[–]lussie 27 points28 points29 points 1 year ago
I have often wondered if, in several thousand years, scholars won't unearth remains of our culture and think that the story of Jesus was our "mythology" and stories like Batman are depictions of real events.
[–]YesImSardonic 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
Or of our gods. I think I could stand to have Batmanism being remembered as one of the great religions of the 20th and 21st centuries.
[–]lussie 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
I wonder what they would build batmanism into... I've thought about that before too, what if we've added all this significance to the mythology of the Greek and Roman cultures. Like, if a Roman came to the future, would they be shocked and laugh at the seriousness that we are attributing to what they considered "stories."
[–]Caddy666 12 points13 points14 points 1 year ago
"it's this kind of complete numbing of your critical thinking that really bothers me."
that is exactly my problem with religion.
[–]PHLAK 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago*
The problem with that statement is that I don't think this guy truly believes Batman/Bruce Wayne actually exists, whereas she obviously thinks Jesus is/was real.
[–]johndoe42 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
Right, but the original comment was "my hero beats your hero." So was he talking about living heroes or superheroes? I'm guessing its the later because if it was the former it wouldn't be very Christian-like to start telling people that their Jesus could beat their literal father who died for them during a shark attack or that Jesus could beat a firefighter who saved their life. So that leaves the fantasy heroes...
[–]Johnofthewest 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
That was my favorite part, he clearly could of said that but was playing his own game with it.
[–]SirShanksalot 19 points20 points21 points 1 year ago
I don't find it surprising at all that something went over a theist's head, but you do make a good point sir, upboat for you.
[–]swimmermango 46 points47 points48 points 1 year ago
Also, when dealing with a 'faithful' friend, which I'm sure Ronald was, you can't openly ask for proof. To keep the conversation running as it was, he had to stay on topic without drifting onto a different subject.
[–]MiggyEvans 49 points50 points51 points 1 year ago
I think he was trying to push it as far as he could while keeping them engaged in the conversation. It was more for the joke than to challenge their faith.
[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 1 year ago
.... which may actually be among the most effective ways of getting theists to challenge their faith. People tend to just shut down pretty quickly when their pet theories are efficiently dismantled, especially when there's emotion involved.
[–]felix_dro 13 points14 points15 points 1 year ago
He chose to promote his side rather than to try to mock the other side, he simply implies that batman is just as real as jesus rather than yelling JESUS ISNT REAL EITHER YOU'RE STUPID
[–]abeuscher 36 points37 points38 points 1 year ago
Classic troll move - the GOP does it all the time. If he tells them that Jesus is fictitious like Batman outright, then they have something to argue about other than who would win the fight. No, this is a man who knows how to respect his talking points.
[–]Kronos6948 13 points14 points15 points 1 year ago
This was definitely a perfect troll. Enrique was definitely looking to fight him on the existence of Jesus vs. the existence of Batman, but he wouldn't bite.
[–]UtopicVision[S] 93 points94 points95 points 1 year ago
Enrique: search up "scientific evidence for existence of bruce wayne" and for jesus, jesus will win
As much scientific as it gets.
[–]JPong 80 points81 points82 points 1 year ago
He is right though. Jesus comes up with 2,111,000 Google results while Bruce Wayne only comes up with 898,000.
However, Batman comes up with 14,100,000 thereby beating the crap out of Jesus.

[–]tridentloop 16 points17 points18 points 1 year ago
my favorite part of this interaction is that Ron does not claim baby j is fictional.. That is what enrique was hoping for. He just insists they are are both real
[–][deleted] 13 points14 points15 points 1 year ago
On the contrary, it's brilliant. Not only he strongly maintained the debate on his hilarious point (Batman vs. jesus), he also avoided the "mental clamshell closing" that happens when you tell a believer "god doesn't exists".
[–]darthdelicious 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
That was my favourite part.
[–]whoami9 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
Trying to honestly shake their beliefs would have interfered with the trolling. Also it probably wouldn't have worked.
[–]Ungefaehr 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
the whole conversation is about the combat qualities of jesus and batman, regardless if they are fictional or not. think of it like a fight between any other fictional charackters, like "lobo could stomp darkwing duck any time!" it just doesnt matter if there is scientific evidence or not. i believe in lobo
[–]nermid 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
That's a completely one-sided fight.

A master troll knows the line not to cross to keep his victims coming back. Even if it means forfeiting the most poignant comeback.
[–]rcklmbr 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
It actually made the argument much more interesting, and he proved his point better by not challenging her beliefs. The argument was about who theoretically would win, not who exists.
[–]thatguyworks 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Because that line of reasoning would devolve into the tired old religion vs. reality argument. The question is not whether or not Jesus or Bruce Wayne are/were real people. It's who would win in a fight.
Ultimately, this isn't a theoligical debate.
[–]Skibum04 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago

Why is it so hard for them to stay focused. The issue is who would beat who, the matter seems extremely straight forward.
Because theists know they would lose just about every single argument against their religion, so they change the subject and obfuscate the issue as much as possible.
[–]bigups43 8 points9 points10 points 1 year ago

[–]silverfirexz 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
Are rapers what people who catch rapees are called?
[–]Triette 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
One of the scarier aspects of that religion, yes. I could kill a thousand people but if I give myself to god and accept him as my lord and savior then he will abolish my sin and I will go to heven. That was the whole point of the cross thing, he took our sins upon himself.
And this is why regardless of how good a person is, Christians "know" all Atheists are sinners and are going to hell.
And this is one of the reasons why I'm not Christian.

Your good works can’t save you, trying to be a “good” person will never save us.
This is a part of the faith I have never understood. So if you are a good person and have never heard of Jesus Christ for some reason, you go to hell. Morality based on fear is a wretched quality.

That guy really could have ripped them a new asshole with some of the set ups they left him. He is nicer than I would've been.
[–]DemonicSpoon 25 points26 points27 points 1 year ago
er...Why?
He was making a sarcastic case for Batman vs Jesus in a fist fight. He was having a bit of fun. His goal wasn't to make a bunch of snide arguments that wouldn't change anything or seriously argue against the existence of God.
[–]KayaNow 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
I agree, you're not going to change their minds.
I just like that he had fun with it instead of trying to change their mindset.

"Search scientific research for Bruce Wayne vs Jesus"
Lol, i love that sentence so much for its stupidity alone.
[–]BlackestNight21 12 points13 points14 points 1 year ago
Man, Enrique is such a tool.
[–]ISaintI 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
I so love the fact that he didn't argue the fictionality of Christ. It made it a lot funnier to see them argue, getting so worked up on something like that.
[–]Ajdiv 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
As true as this argument may be, I'm afraid my God can beat up your super hero.
But...uhhh...yeah. I suppose being rich and good at karate is good too.
[–]Theophagist 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
One of my favorite arguments.
"Jesus WAS real. He DID live."
"Ok, prove it"
"There's TONS of proof."
"Show me."
"I don't remember off the top of my head.
"Bring it to me later."
"I WILL!"
"Cool. You're going to get a medal for doing what no one else could."
No one has ever lived up to the challenge. You would think with all the "overwhelming evidence" they would be able to come up with 1 piece of it on the fly.
[–]A7XfoREVer6661 11 points12 points13 points 1 year ago
Epic troll, I am a Christian and I laughed at it. If we lose our ability to joke around then we truly lose what makes us humans.
[–]auribus 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
Aren't you folks kind of superstitious about the whole "666" thing?
[–]DistinctQuantic 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago

[–]tyrghast 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
What about the part where Batman is Jesus? Albeit a darker Jesus than Superman (which also draws many more obvious parallels to Jesus) but Superman isn't a remotely sympathetic character anyway.
[–]kadmylos 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
Well we all know Jesus' weakness: due process of law. All batman would have to do is bring some GCPD officers with him and have Jesus arrested. Game fucking over. What's Jesus going to do? Walk on water at them?
[–]JenniferLopez 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago

[–]DeliriousZeus 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
I feel like this is something I would do. What's eerie about it is the fact that every Julie or Julia I've met has ended up arguing with me about religion...
[–]LZcurlygirl 10 points11 points12 points 1 year ago
Every julia I've ever met has been a whore!
Sorry, that just popped right out.
[–]formermormon 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
That's what she said.
[–]13lacula 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
I actually asked that guy who did an AMA who was teaching a class about Batman. I asked him if given enough time could Batman beat any living thing or superhero(Marvel included), and he plainly said yes,
[–]slimshady2002 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Hmm Wayne does have a ton of resources at his disposal. What I love about batman is that he is a plausible superhero just because he doesn't have any real superpowers. Just a regular billionaire.
[–]hokeywebb22 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
Ultimate troll victory. Nicely done sir.
[–]kabrandon 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
See, these are the kinds of posts from this subreddit I enjoy. Religious people will stick to their religion no matter what anybody says. Kind of like how no atheist would switch to becoming Christian (or any other religion) just because we were told we were wrong. But this was humorous and well played. Ronald never showed any sign of becoming more tense at the ridiculous arguments those other people slung at him. After all, it's a fact, Bruce Wayne doesn't take shit from dudes in sandals.
[–]OKImHere 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
I'd like to fill Julie's spot with my righteousness.
[–]mikerhoads 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
I upvoted this mainly because it was the first facebook conversation submission that I actually believe took place on Facebook.
[–]Pfantom 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
I loved the part "Batman is FICTIONAL"
[–]ploshy 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
Amusing, but a little hard on the eyes. Try saving as a png (assuming you're the one who actually took the picture) instead of as a jpeg. png has better compression.
[–]neopet 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
Dude, Jesus is in the Qu'ran
[–]mrbunbury 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
He wasn't the "hero", Ronald claimed
[–]FistOfFacepalm 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Jesus would never get into a fight......that he knew he couldn't win
[–]sickpharaoh 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago*
Batman, or alternatively, the Punisher with planning trumps all.
Seriously. The Punisher is just Batman if he were poor and didn't have a conscience.
[–]barbarismo 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
wtb an asshole on facebook
[–]AtheistActivist 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Once they started saying Bruce Wayne was a fictional character, I lost it
[–]velocity010 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
epic troll is epic
[–]Other_World 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
I move that Batman is just as real as Jesus. (or not real) Because there is just about the same historical evidence that they both existed, the only difference is that Jesus appeared in the bible, while Batman appeared in comic books. It's practically the same thing.
[–]gwarsh41 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Really curious, why do atheists have such blatantly religious friends on facebook?
[–]bowiebuddhababe 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
I just like that Glenn let this all happen on his wall.
[–]kaces 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
"Batman isn't real" "Neither is Jesus Christ, your point?"
[–]G4M3F4C3 15 points16 points17 points 1 year ago
The fact that everybody in the thread is using above average grammar leads me to believe that this is a fake.
[–]dMage 5 points6 points7 points 1 year ago
My friends and I use correct grammar when writing on Facebook. Saying their grammar is too good is a self serving comment. Not everyone on Facebook is grammar deficient, it's hardly proof that something is real or fake.
[–]G4M3F4C3 8 points9 points10 points 1 year ago
I said "above average" not "perfect"
[–]cloakzore 20 points21 points22 points 1 year ago

It's probably fake, but either way, this Ronald person is a god.

[–]tom90 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Trolololol
[–]deezyy 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Ugh, reading stuff like those people endlessly defending their beliefs as 'the truth' and hoping that the Batman poster 'opens his heart to the gospel' one day makes me want to stab myself.
[–]Knews2Me 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
That was thoroughly enjoyable; thank's for the lolz!
p.s. Goku would kick Batman's ass.
[–]AtheistMartyr 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I love how you stuck to the topic at hand. You never once qualified their ignorant remarks even though you could have really laid it down on them. This was my favorite FB posting. I don't think they get the irony.
[–]Endarkens 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Lol, that was hilarious! I woulda been like fb me and ill jump in! Lol. But that was great.
"Batman rose from the dead.. sacrificed himself believeing he would stay dead for the bettermen of man. Jesus died knowing he would come back, that's just a cheap palour tric, its cheating and the sacrifice is meaningless."
[–]waffleninja 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Pontius Pilate managed to kill Jesus. And there is no way Batman would lose to Pontius Pilate. No way. Batman could totally kill Jesus.
