No, Constantine does NOT speak for Jesus. He lived centuries later and was a thug.

Forum atheists, clueless and I mean totally clueless.

US tortured people in Gitmo too, based only on suspicion and not law.....
ISIS tortured people too, based on their own religious fanaticism....
Constantine was a religious fanatic as well....but you should thank him, otherwise you wouldn't have a human deity to worship.

So Kunt Kunt isn't trinitarian.

Is he a Jehovah's Witless, Christadelphian  or one of the other even
weirder than loonier than usual sects and cults at the fringes of
Christianity?

When was the combination of Daddy, Sonny and Sacred Spook invented? I
know it was only adopted in 325 at Nicaea, but it  is so weird  that
it must have been around already.

Gods never seem to die.  That's where all the fairy tales imbue their
gods with invincibility attributes.

The "Lord God of Abraham"  (that really big Kahuna the others Kowtow
to) is just an amalgam of gods that went before.  But  that was then,
and this is now.  

If you have a favorite religion (today) that promises you won't die,
when in fact, "you die," you just have to say you believe their
bullshit and go on and on about how wonderful it all is.

There is no test of one's "belief."  Presumably, that comes "JUDGMENT
