Christianity would be a whole lot more effective. For me at least. I mean how many people die each day? and jesus is just another. He died, and went to heaven, thats no so horrible. People a lot of times try to guilt trip you into christianity by saying "well jesus GAVE HIS LIFE for you"...but then he achieves erternal salvation right after. I think if Jesus died for me, and suffered eternally in hell for me, i would feel guilty. That would show is true love--that he would suffer eternally for our benefit. But since he died, like everyone dies, and went to heaven, i dont feel all that bad, and i dont feel it was such a sacrafice.
Not only did jesus go to heaven but god resurected him again. The whole think was a prank, god knew he was going to resurect him afterwards. I bet their both having a good fucking laugh over it as we type...
actually, according to tradition jesus spent 3 days in hell whic was acceptable penance for the sins of anyone who was willing to accept his sacrifice.
Hmmm, theres a lot of holes in the bible. When jesus was resurected he had holes in his palms where the nails went through. When you crucify someone you have to drive the nail through the wrist bone or the person will fall off the cross due to their own body weight. If jesus was in hell then how did he know he was there for 36 hours? Just knowing that 90% of the human popluation believes in a god shows how unevolved we still are as a whole. How can Allah, God and numerous other manifestations create the same planet? Maybe there all in on it together
well, he died on thursday, was dead friday, saturday an rose sunday. i'm not sure if it's exactly 36 hours. but seriously, there's a whole lotta taking people at their word going on. i can see the Creators of the Universe Committee convening, with several deities claiming to be the same guy....
what's wrong with going by different names anyways? I don't use my legal name for every day conversation, but the bank/government uses it. I have a couple different nicknames from different people, why wouldn't god/allah/creator joe have a couple different names
Are you suggesting that all the gods are really one and he's using over 100 identities that confilct with eachover for fun? If thats true then he's a total asshole
maybe just mischievous. i mean, our huge tradegies probably just look like an ant hill drowned in the rain to frank, all powerful creator.
So why would he waste his 'ultra valuable' time making crappy statues cry in Asia? It's like "Wow god, thats so amazing! Thanks for making the gay statue cry milk once a year and ignoring the starving African children!!1!!1"
