Christians, would you have saved Jesus, if you had he chance?
June 15, 2016 at 8:25 pm
This is for both theists and atheists to answer.
Imagine you travel back in time, and have the opportunity to save Jesus from being humiliated, tortured horribly, dying a slow painful death, having his body desecrated by the Roman guards, etc.
There is no question that your attempt would be successful.
Would you?
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

How many jesusises (?jesi?) do I have to kill before I get the right one? Wouldn't it be easier to kill mary?
If I agree, do I have to conform to a specific manner of death?

Absolutely. I'd save him, take him some place secluded and discretely strangle the f*cker to death. Then I'd burn the body. That way, if Jesus' death is indeed necessary for salvation of humankind - god's will would have been fulfilled and our sins - forgiven. But we'd have been spared all the christian bullsh*t...

I most certainly would have tried to save him. What kind of person stands around and watches/assists a murder?

Isn't the story that Jesus rose from the dead to live forever ?
