Suicide

[KevinM1]

I always chuckle at the sacrifice portion of the myth. Believers harp on it like it means anything. "God sacrificed his only son for YOU. That's how much he loves YOU." Except...

Well, as far as I know, there's no take backs with real sacrifice. The entire point of sacrifice is that it's a loss that can never be recovered. At least, not fully. Yet, three days later, Zombie Jesus arose, ready to eat the brains of the angels in heaven.

Moreover, the morality of sacrificing your only child (even though the child pulled a Jean Grey) when it was completely unnecessary (omnipotent god, after all) doesn't strike me as love. Especially when Jesus is part of god anyway. It comes across more like an unbalanced creeper cutting themselves over an unrequited love and screaming "I did it for YOU!"

Uh... no, thanks.

Ultimately, I just see little wisdom in modeling one's life and point of view based on the heavily modified stories of bronze-to-iron age Middle Eastern society.
