Suffer a few hours on the cross, stay dead three days, rise and become Emperor of the universe.
But your imaginary friend just LOVES blood sacrifices, right?
Not even that much. It's a circus trick: See the Great Jesus rise from the grave!
If he's god, he's always god. Hence he cannot die and his resurrection is a given. The much bigger absurdity is the purpose of this horror show in the first place. If Jesus is god, he's virtually sacrificing himself to himself.
That's the whole thing many idiots seem to ignore: an all powerful deity has to manifest himself in mortal form to sacrifice himself to himself to change his own rules.
WTF?
Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:
"You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
