        In that case I have good news for you: the Gospel of Matthew is not really written by an author called Matthew. It’s by an anonymous author and much later attributed to a guy called Matthew.

        Sure, there is a chance that the anonymous author was also called Matthew but I think it’s small enough for you and all the other Matthew-phobes who downvoted my comment to undo your misdeeds and seek redemption.

      Your comment has more downvotes than the post, which I think is actually primarily downvoted because people don’t think it qualifies as me_irl. So I suspect it’s just the strong (often thoughtless) antireligious sentiment around here. I guess that it’s pretty inherent to social media that people refuse to think.
