Why did Jesus suffer for sinners and not victims

RE: Why did Jesus suffer for sinners and not victims
To me, it sounds like you have a deluded, idealistic idea that Christians are helping, when they are not, like this part

(June 5, 2021 at 11:30 am)John 6IX Breezy Wrote: One of my best friends is from Uganda and he has about six siblings, most of which were adopted. His parents go do missionary work over there, and they adopt an orphan whenever the opportunity presents itself.

These are all just regular people. Doing regular Christian things.

Missionary work is already a faliure because it is imposing foreign culture and religion on other people.

And Uganda missionary work is especially notorious as a failure because Christians are spreading hate as well as bigotry there forcing their primitive worldviews on Ugandans


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"
