The Martyred Messiah Maxim
(Please correct me if a law like this already exists- I browsed the list for duplicates but I didn't check every single entry.)
The Martyred Messiah Maxim
Any individual who compares criticism of his supposedly revolutionary and brilliant ideas to the persecution of Jesus must be nailed to a tree and left to die of gradual asphyxiation while onlookers mock him, gamble for his clothes, and poke him with sharp objects. The survival of his ideas beyond that point may be taken as conclusive evidence that the individual does or does not resemble Jesus.
Corollary: The Resurrection Rule
If the individual rises from the dead on the third day, all critics professing belief in the divinity of Christ Jesus must acknowledge that the individual's self-comparison to Jesus was accurate.
