Biography

He was the son of the pious vicar Christian Fulda (1768-1854). He began his education in a Latin school in Halle, then in 1819-1823 he studied at Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg. Until 1827, when he was ordained, he gave a lecture in a public school at a local orphanage. From 1827 to 1880 he was a pastor in Dammendorf.[1]

As a theologian, he represented original beliefs by questioning commonly accepted views. In 1878, on the basis of his research, in his book Das Kreuz und die Kreuzigung ("Cross and Crucifixion") he expressed the view that Jesus was not executed on the cross, but on a simple execution pile without a bar.[1]

He died in Dammendorf on 24 February 1883.[1]

I wonder if you can just spoof it with user agent changer and some userscripts.
gollark: It really seems like one of those things, like DRM, which is inevitably doomed to fail because you can't shove some content at a user/computer and then somehow control what they do with it.
