What Major Intellectual Issue Most Keeps You From Accepting The Christian Narrative?

RE: What Major Intellectual Issue Most Keeps You From Accepting The Christian Narrative?
The first thing that comes to mind is it's based on an innocent person being brutally murdered for the crimes of the guilty. That's pretty much the opposite of just and fair. Of course also hell is often depicted as a place you'd never want to go, even if you were the type of person who isn't afraid to pay for your own crimes yourself.

You're convicted of crimes you're incapable of avoiding, sentenced to a place of punishment you're incapable of bearing, and the only way out is scapegoating someone else. That's christianity in a nutshell.
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.
