I don't get a choice in that do I? If I could prevent it I would. Thing is though, I'm repeating the same self destructive behaviour that necessitates the sacrifice. I'm being a human being with accepted flaws.
So you accept that Jesus is being the hero here. Taking one for the troops. But the troops should be ashamed and not accept the sacrifice? Wouldn't that kinda make the sacrifice a waste? Sure they all fell over themselves trying to prevent it, but Sgt Dan insisted. Act is done. All those squaddies get liberty. Yet you say they are immoral for taking the gift? Please explain to me how. I just can't see your point.
I hereby disown all responsibility for my faults and mistakes seeing as how I accept the self-sacrificial acts of numerous unnamed persons throughout the world now and in the past.
See how illogical your pretension as a comrade and beneficiary of Jesus' alleged punishment (I mean sacrifice) sounds?
