Rational defense of Christianity?

[abaris]

How, if that was true, would God send His son Jesus Christ to die for our sins.

Congratulations for bringing yet another version of christianity. Everyone seems to have their own rubber Jesus these days. To bend and shape, just how they like him.

Btw, Jesus dying is only valid, if there is no trinity. Otherwise Jesus is just a brainfart of god compartmentalizing itself into one of three aspects. So Jesus is god, god sacrifices Jesus's body, which he doesn't need in the first place, since he's god, to himself. And then, since god can't die anyway, pulls the resurrection trick like a cheap circus artist.

That's no sacrifice, since there was nothing to be lost in the first place. It's just a splatter show for the clapping and credulous audience.
