A person may assert their beliefs, but those beliefs do not extend to trademark law, most especially in the context of "sue everyone else who uses the name of a historical religious figure that I have decided to take for myself".

Your argument is gibberish. As I read your comments, you say that:

1. It isn't possible to trademark the name "Jesus Christ";

because

2. This might imply that your company is endorsed by Jesus Christ.

But that is clearly false. Those grounds are illegitimate; the government cannot take a position on whether you are or aren't endorsed by Jesus Christ.

There are no "false endorsement" concerns raised by the hypothetical trademark.
