Fuck it I’m adding some belated propaganda for both of my favorite ginger jesuses
Rand
-he’s a shepherd!!!!!!!!
-both the christ allegory AND the antichrist allegory because he’s god/the universe’s specialest guy (unfortunately for him)
-has multiple sets of stigmata and symbolic unhealing wounds
-arguably the text indicates that he is the reincarnation of actual factual Jesus of Nazareth
-knows for basically the entire series that he will have to sacrifice himself to save the world
-as his arc nears its zenith he goes around constantly causing miracles, reshaping reality around him
Gideon
-daughter of god (important: god sucks)
-the pool scene baptism where she metaphorically cleanses her closest companion of her sins
-sacrifices herself and is later resurrected by god
-her early life has the equivalent of the massacre of the innocents wherein she is the only survivor in a mass murder of children
-she’s also got some christ wounds of the kind that would get a medieval illuminated manuscript writer particularly horny
Feel free to add more propaganda for either!!!
