Forgiveness

[Cinjin]

"Then please explain to me how you can ask and accept forgiveness from a fictional character named Jesus?"
I can't, are you talking to yourself, playing with an imaginary friend? I see where you're at with this as an atheist/absurdist. You don't accept God's existance by default, and hopefully I've illustrated in 1 how that's not taking you to the logical conclusion that you're genuinely accepting of Christ or his forgiveness. I see personal evidence indicative that God is real, so I do accept that. However logically it doesn't make sense to me why you would claim you've accepted something you don't feel is necessary, from someone who you feel doesn't exist, and expect me to take it seriously.

You almost got it. From my point of view, you are playing with your imaginary friend and asking him to forgive you and you play act like he forgave you. So I asked forgiveness and I have been forgiven as well. I know this in my heart the same way YOU know that you are forgiven "in your heart".

Why should I ask forgiveness for doing what I was made to do? Pardon the fuck outta me for being born!
