Christ just became the Lamb of God to take care of that for good

if you accept that and believe in determinism anyway, well, godspeed

life still has meaning if you make it have meaning.

But you wont recognize these two FACTS because of religion's corrupting influence.

Never fear, leading science on consciousness is all pointing in this direction.

> MAKE it have meaning

you're retarded

if there's no free will, you can't make anything out of anything

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649060)

But look into implications for the fact that there is no free will... what that means for us as a species and what that means for our future.

Jesus isn't god and did not die for anyone's sins, it's just an awful idea that someone could/should/did die to cleanse you of yours. That doesn't sound like taking responsibility.

An autocrat could do the same.

if anything, he was a dood that believed so much in the value of human life that he was willing to endure horrific torture to prove his point. never recanted, despite the nails in his limbs and the spear in his ribs.

that dude believed in humanity so much. guess you could call it love. point of Christianity is to achieve a similar experience of authentic love for your fellow human beings.

jews don't seem to believe in this. theirs is an acts-based religion. go through the motions and the rituals, and heaven is yours, regardless of what's in your heart. Christianity, by contrast, rewards grace - true subjective love of fellow man. the former provides a clearer road map, but the latter promises a potentially higher heaven.

Christianity to this day demonizes Jews for rejecting this village ranter.

Similar sorts of good things can be said about Mohammad, fwiw. He had his own moral imperatives that were ahead of his time as well.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649275)

He had every opportunity to be violent, but He wasn't.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649297)

nothing nice can be appropriately said about such a man

they are not in the same category

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649307)

As for your "point" which is more a declamation of opinion, you need to study more.

Do you think people venerate Mohammad because of ... what ... ?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36651316)

They believe he was the one true prophet of God and that everything he said was divinely inspired verbatim, including the parts about murdering infidels. Shiites and Sunnis can't even agree on the line of succession and kill each other over it to this day. Their religion is toxic at its core because its founder was toxic at his core. Shitlib muzzies who try to reframe it as a "religion of peace" are fucking delusional.

read up on things more. things are less cartoon world and more nuanced that you might think.

I think those in the faith would say he didnt FUCK little kids--he married them to consolidate support among the arabic tribes

Is there any scholarship on whether Jesus had free will? Was the plan all along that he was sent/sent himself specifically to die for are sins?

Idk I wasn't raised religious and the whole thing feels very unintuitive to me.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649692)

living completely without sin would be meaningless otherwise. He was tempted frequently and resisted, most notably in the wilderness.

also, on the cross He cried out "Father, why have you forsaken me?" indicating that He didn't fully understand the implications but did it anyway.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36649811)

but Christianity is meaningless if he didn't

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4056091&forum_id=2#36650318)

Him having free will otoh would be a weird gamble by his father. What if he decided to just go buckwild, despite being fathered by God? That'd be extremely kooky and kinda embarrassing, and fail to perfect the covenant or whatever.
