Re: Why did Jesus have to die?
Well, I haven't read all the responses. And I don't really know anything about religion.
But, I have often question that statement, "For god gave his only begotten son for our sins"... or whatever it is.
Since god supposedly created everything, including sin, why does sin have to be paid for? And who was god paying for our sins.
The whole statement seems flawed to me. But then I find many of man's dogmas to be this way. Just flowery speech that is trying to sell you something. Basically marketing speak that is trying to overcome your "objections". Come to think of it much of the current psyco-farmacological arguments sound the same way. LOL! "Sure your kid need Ritalin, he has ADD". LOL!
Right...
So it would seem preachers, psychiatrists and clergy are all the same thing. People that screw with your head to take your money.
LOL!
