The first reason Is because I realised quite early on that John 3:16 (The Gospel in a nutshell verse) could be whittled down to the following: "God sacrificed himself to himself to change a rule he made himself."
We'll basically give a rundown of the basic Christian story of the fall and redemption of man and interspersed will be my own little objections.
God created Adam and Eve and the World apparently because he wanted some creatures who would praise him. He put them into the Garden of Eden along with a tree that Adam and Eve weren't allowed to eat at the risk of dying (which they wouldn't have had any more concept of than the newborn Peter Pan). Needless to say, being curious humans, they ate it, and God decided to punish them for eating the fruit and their offspring for being descended from those who ate the forbidden fruit. LAter, forr a total of at least 4000 years, God decided to favor one particular branch of the descendants of Adam and Eve and call them his chosen people, only to habitually deprive them of their land, rights, and their freedoms whenever they stepped out of line, which was often. Eventually, after 4000 years, he decided to do something about it, and by "do something about it", I mean he decided to do bukakke (the Bible does say the "Angel of the Lord came upon Mary") on a 13-year old virgin, which got her pregnant with a boy named Jesus who would later become a prophet indistinguishable from the many prophets in the land, who would later be crucified for making an ass of himself at the Jewish Temple, only to be revived in a twist worthy of Greek Mythology and then go back to heaven. After this, a Roman Pharisee (read: member of the group that Jesus clashed so often with) named Saul changed his name to Paul and claimed to speak for Jesus, barely talking about his life, and adding a place called Hell into the mix, where people are supposed to be sent to everlasting torture for failing to accept Jesus as their lord and saviour.
What part of this is supposed to be attractive?
