No, everyone -would not-. Michael made his position on the matter plain. You and I would prevent it (despite the gospels comments on the matter). Why? Even though you would prevent it, you are still satisfied with profiting -from it-. Why?
It should be easy for you to answer those "ridiculous comparisons" in a way that doesn't compromise your position...being ridiculous..I'd suppose. If you don't like those....read the thread....I've offered many, many more.
Apologies R I was or and about with poor signal, and didn't intend to post that. I guess God had other plans.
I don't see you making any relevant points in this thread. I see you drawing wild examples, but I'm trying to forgive you those as I believe that you genuinely misunderstand. To an extreme level.
Who wants to hurt people? Me? Like I said, it's a great sadness that is wonderfully overshadowed by the far more powerful greater good. Easter Monday is a celebration of the liberation of mankind no less. You think no sacrifice is worth that. You'd rather billions of people go through suffering rather than God choose this method of solving the problem.
This is Gods choice. The perfect solution. As has been said, God isn't hurting himself. Jesus still exists. He took on the full pain of a human to make it real to us. You shouldn't forget that fact when you decry the violent act.
For cookies to be stolen, they would have to have been taken from someone against their will right? As Jesus pretty thoroughly explained, he was fully complicit with it. God gave this gift freely, at a cost to his human incarnation. So those cookies are on the table with a note: please take these Rhythm, for free.
So on your two points I find nothing immoral or abhorrent.
You're twisting Michaels words. Innocently I believe. Would we want the sacrifice never to have happened? The single greatest accomplishment in the history of mankind? I'd have to be incredibly selfish or evil to say no. Would anyone as a human being not have empathy and not wish to see another suffer? Of course not.
