Without the Shedding of Blood There is No Remission of Sin

RE: Without the Shedding of Blood There is No Remission of Sin
It is a bit odd. Not just the spilling of blood, but the spilling of innocent blood. Meaning you have to murder something so you can be forgiven for your wrongdoings. Talk about two wrongs making a right, somehow. What absolves you of the sin of murder, then? It makes no sense, except within a culture where blood sacrifice and scapegoating is the norm.

And yes, Jesus was following a rule imposed on him that he didn't want to follow. There's even a verse explicitely saying this, where Jesus asked Yahweh/Jehova to let this cup pass from him. Matthew 26:36.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
