twocompulsive: you probably don't care (and I don't know why you would), but I will never respond to you in a thread or even finish reading one of your posts as long as you format in such a way. That is incredibly obnoxious.

My posting style is obnoxious ? That
not a tad over the top ? Never mind you
are entitled to your opinion however. You do
seem to have broken your rule though since you
did respond in a thread albeit indirectly but even so
Welcome to the site anyway. Hope you stay around man
[ Even though you shall not bother actually reading this now ]

A stone age insurrectionist allegedly got executed via common method of the time. That's pretty much all that can be said about the allegedly historical Jesus.

Fixed that for you.

If history has taught us anything about xtians it is that these fuckheads are fairly typical of the breed. That's why they can never be allowed to exert political power.

The thing that baffles me the most is why Christians are so proud that their leader was so cruelly tormented.

Well, not only that, but it apparently goes completely over their heads that in accepting this "sacrifice" on their behalf they are actually condoning it.

This God is supposed to be timeless. And he never seems to truly give anyone any real choice in anything.

If God has simply asked me first if I would be interested in condoning having his innocent son beaten and nailed to a pole to pay for my supposed "sins" I could have saved God the bother and simply told God that I would not be willing to condone such a sacrifice on my behalf.

Just by simply asking me God could have saved Jesus from this horrible fate. I simply would not have condoned this on my behalf.

Any Christians would have had to have push me aside and said to God. "Are you kidding me? You're willing to let your son take my beating to save my pathetically worthless butt! I ACCEPT! Crucify him already! Get on with it!"

That's basically the position the Christians are taking.

They claim otherwise. They claim that it's water over the dam and that it's already a done deal, so they may as well accept it now. But that flies in the face that this God is supposed to be omniscient and timeless. If this God is truly omniscient and timeless, then I cannot condone having Jesus crucified to save my butt, because that would be basically the same as condoning it on my behalf before it's even done.

So to accept the crucifixion on my behalf from a supposedly timelessly omniscient God would truly not be anything more than condoning it even before it happened. And that I refuse to do.

So the whole Christian mythology makes absolutely no sense.

The whole religion is based on daddy issues, and not the good kind like mine where I like to chase after older guys, but the bad kind like in Greek mythology where fathers killed or ate their kids or sons supplanted fathers.

After a fashion, summer, but I'm not certain jeebus is a victim of the myth of replacement in the same way Zeus had coming before Rhea gave Kronos a paleolithic gut bomb. The judeo-xtian myth cycle is far less interesting (well, at least after Yahweh went and did the Darwin on the rest of the gods around early on) and far more retarded in its attempts to get a "based on true events" label attached to the book cover.

[thesummerqueen]

No shit.

[Epimethean]

No, shit.
