Why does Jesus' "suffering" matter?

[Randy Carson]

No, Randy, I don't need to know, because it doesn't matter to me.  I don't fear death, or what dreams may come.  No amount of threatening me with my mortality or your hell is compelling to me.  My -conscience- compels me, and I just can't be a scapegoater, or be made to be a scapegoater.  Understand?

1. Don't care -even if it were true.
2. Don't care -even if it were true.
3. Promises promises.....lol....
4. I'm not interested in a "right relationship" to a scapegoater...unless that "right relationship" is calling said scapegoater out on their bullshit....which is exactly what I do.  What's so difficult to understand about this?

Go ahead, though, tell me more, drive me further away.........as though the gap weren't already to great to be bridged.  Have we reach the terminus of your apologetic skill yet?  Is this something for which you have no argument?  Seems a glaring omission what with the subject in question being the central tenet of your faith.

If christianity were true....I couldn't, in good conscience, be a christian.  You can respond to -that-, or continue fantasizing about my death....but don't be surprised when I call you to task on your own failures, by your own standard, pursuant to your own claims.

Oh, gosh...you mean that by telling you the truth I'm actually driving you away from God for all eternity??? Golly gee, I should never say another word about Jesus so that even more people will not be turned off.



Matthew 28
16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
