Alien Crucifixion Scenario

[Drich]

So, space ship lands on earth. Boss alien steps out of ship and says we are all sinners. Says he has a saving grace for us all. Proceeds to have his son brutally tortured and murdered in a theatrical manner. Would you accept his "gift" and be grateful or would you accuse the alien boss of being a sick, twisted mother fucker?

If God was not human then technically He is indeed alien and therefore what you describe is indeed what happened. So why wouldn't we accept said atonement?

Because "sick, twisted motherfucker" is a thing!

I will accept the gift of his spaceship, especially if I have to beat jahovah to death to get it.

You forgot the tentacles and the biohazard sign.

I mean the magic day in which everybody will understand that God has nothing to do with religious dogmas that have done so much damage to humanity and still do cause damage these days so when that day will come all chimps of this world will not have any more excuses to put God and religious dogmas in the same pot so to speak

Maybe this is an opportunity for us to suggest that the alien god transubstantiate different food substances than wine and wafers.

I'm thinking specifically well matured Scottish whisky, champagne, cannabis and nicely smoked salmon steaks with steamed potatoes and asparagus.

I'm sure we can all come up with some relevant symbolism if we put our minds to it.

Good point, we'd have to tell the alien that on our planet we eat our sacrifices, at which point the alien might say "... eat him?! What kind of sicko planet is this?

Of course what we'd eat after that in honour of this sacrific would depend on the make up of the alien.

Scaly skin - some type of fish
Green blood - creme de menthe?

Exoskeleton - lobster
Brown blood - coffee? Rum?

And what do we wear around our necks, depends on how he was killed, the symbol of a laser blaster? A little light saber? Alien "wine press" looking thingy?

First I would ask him what sin is in his world view. Then I'd ask him what makes him believe he has the grace to save. Then I'd ask him what good has it done for you to kill your own son and what could I even gain from that sort of action. You see chimp3 you haven't even began to cover the truth that the scriptures give, you have only managed a poor explanation to justify why you are not a Christian. It want hold water when you are before God the Father at judgement.

As long as he didn't throw me in the wood chipper and have me as his meal I wouldn't care.

Atheists ask christians that all the time and never get a convincing answer.
