    Early Christianity was nothing anyone would recognize today. It was more like if Diogenes was blissfully happy instead of being a little shit.

        I meant “little shit” as a single descriptor, which I believe is apt (in modern parlance). I concur that Diogenes was a great and wise “little shit”.
