Jesus' death is remembered 2 days earlier on Good Friday, and it certainly is not a "celebration." It's a somber day where we are supposed to go to church, not eat meat, not party, and just have a quiet day remembering what Jesus went through.
Good point! I see it as one sick story though.
Ok.
Just so long as you don't see us as shitty people for "celebrating torture and murder", when in fact we dont.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
