Would Jesus promote punishing the innocent instead of the guilty?
#55
RE: Would Jesus promote punishing the innocent instead of the guilty?
tackattack, Jesus had plenty of sins like calling people fools as well as "vipers," "serpents," "hypocrites," "whited sepulchres," "thieves," and "blind." While also saying to other people to love their enemies and not to be angry because "I say to you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment".
But in Mark 3:5 Jesus does that: "He looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart." Jesus failed to practice what he preached and sinned.

He not only denounced his own mother but also said to other people that they should hate their parents "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple."

Or just his lying to people: like when he was crucified he said to other crucified guy that today he will be with him in heaven, and yet Jesus was supposed to be under ground for 3 days; or when in Matt. 13:31-32 he says that "mustard seed is the smallest seed of all seed", when it's not.

And I could go on and on, but to what purpose? Because you would just think up some silly excuses for him because you believe Jesus must be sinless, so at the end it would look like when those Trump worshippers make excuses for his bad deeds.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
