Posted by Amanda at 12:02pm Aug 23 '12The whole moral of the crucified Jesus story is that he died for you so that anything bad you do your not to be held accountable, he is. I can't accept that. If I die and find out I'm wrong and the Christian god is real, and he says "I'll give you one last chance, do you accept Jesus's sacrifice?" I'd reply with a firm, "No."
I can not have someone punished for something I did, especially not tortured for three days before they died. If something I did while I am alive is punishable with hell then I want to go to hell and get punished myself. Because I am in the belief that I alone can be held accountable for what I do, the good and the bad, and if the bad needs to be punished by an eternity of torture then I will do that, I however will not allow another be tortured for something I did. I don't see how that can be considered moral and good.
