Jesus, Least Fit Moral Judge

[Ryantology]

sin is not crime. sin is the condition, affliction that keeps us from spending an eternity with God.

Call it whatever you want. It is an 'affliction' God made possible.

Which makes us SLAVES to sin.

Which God did on purpose. Or do you suggest that God was incapable of making humanity invulnerable to the temptations of sin?

That means committing sin is not what free will is about. Free will is a singular choice to seek redemption from the sins we are bound to. Nothing more.

I'm not invoking the Greek idea of free will, but your own. We have the 'free will' to seek redemption from sin because God either could not or would not design us so that sin was never an issue in the first place.

If you can not help but sin then you are already a slave.

Some behaviors defined as 'sins' are behaviors which are virtually impossible to avoid committing. They are behaviors hardcoded into human brains. They are also behaviors God is guilty of committing himself, which is especially hilarious when one considers the fact that one of the worst sins is supposed to be 'hypocrisy'.

Being 'free of sin' is another way of saying 'don't be the way God designed you to be'.

Christianity is not about earning your way to Heaven though your deeds/living a life without sin. It is about seeking the attonement offered through the blood christ shed for the sins He knew you could not shake.

It is his fault we cannot shake them. He made this universe, didn't he? It's a rigged (or flawed) game, and telling us to 'atone' for it merely blames the victims of bad design.

The Command you are referring to is: You shall not Murder, God kills in the time the commandments, and His people were given orders for the deaths of entire races of people(women and children smashing babies against the rocks and so on.) This is different from Murder. Murder being the unsanctioned taking of life. (Someone killing with out God's say so)

Sometimes I can't tell whether I find your candidness about the nightmarishly psychotic nature of your faith refreshing or terrifying.
