Gilligan,
Yet, again your response is horribly inept. You seem unable to recognize that multitude of well-put, sane arguments around your pitiful reply of "Yeah, he suffered." without the slightest regard for Skipper's (for whom you're clearly attached yourself to namewise--and will probably try to focus on the discussion of naming instead poorly defending your religion which is crippled with illogic.) Consider his actual words, how like anyone, he would trade a few horrible days being hung for paradise. Or, consider Minimalist, who explained how the god-man who resurrects is a common trait of religion. You're like a parrot, set on repeat, depending on others to define existence for you, constantly quoting a book handed to you, and you like a sop, constantly repeating its contents as the truth. Don't just represent of viewpoint. Be a decision maker. If every other religion is wrong, propagated by those who brought them into the religion, doesn't it make you a little suspicious that yours is made up, too? Doesn't it?

Because He suffered horribly.
