Not to mention that, as a god-man (as they allege), Jesus would have known his death wasn't permanent, and that he would arise and ascend back to heaven to [I guess fuse/conglomerate with his original self?], so really it wasn't even a big deal. A little bit of pain, perhaps.
"Jesus had a pretty bad weekend for your sins."
Seriouly, good grief... if I could know for sure that I'd arise from the dead, I'd probably volunteer to be cruficied and resurrected, just to see what it's like. YOLO! I mean, YOLT! (You Only Live Twice.)

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
