My apologies for not recognizing a fellow atheist! One reason I like Maccoby is that I could never understand why Christians never questioned why Jesus, who they believe was sent by God to die for our sins, was purported to have exclaimed "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" before he died. IMO, Maccoby's theories of the historical Jesus are the only ones that explain that apparent contradiction.
Laminate that card, pin it to your shirt, get the ticket, refuse to pay, join in with others on a class action lawsuit. Be the headache they can't treat.
I am an explicit, hard, anti-ecclesiastical atheist; pretty much an antitheist except I'm sure there is no deity and hence antitheism is a meaningless distinction. I've not read Maccoby (thanks for the heads up) but his opinion of Paul seems, pretty much, to be identical to mine except I would add "grifter" to Paul's characteristics.

Brilliant!
True, but that poor bugger had a valid excuse for his own stupidity (OK, he was probably a dick before his Alzheimers kicked in.)

4 armed white cops terrifed by 7 unarmed people, many with dark skin!
Satan was, of course, God's personal assistant (see the Book of Job), so yeah.

What a shame religion is so publicly displayed at all.
We have a winner.
I mean, let them copy-pasta his bullshit everywhere. Then we can get the entertainingly stupid rant *without* worrying about giving Trump clicks.

“Dawg bless,” please.
I thought God ordered Jesus killed so that He could save mankind from Himself?
