We could not possibly repay our debt to God for the sins we commit, so Jesus stepped in to pay it for us. We are absolved, and we are no longer under obligation.
The crucifixion means everything.
That was a shoddy attempt. What we -don't- do is torture the parent then nail them to a fucking post. Maybe we have that wrong though, you ready to string some unfortunate up as payment for my parking tickets?
The crucifixion means quite a bit, none of it good.......and you know better, despite your claims.
Your sins against God are much more serious than a broken window or a few parking tickets.
YOU cannot pay the debt you owe.
