Is It Humanity’s Fault That Jesus Was Crucified?
The fault belongs to God, which in some Christian sects is the same being as Jesus, while in other Christian sects he is the Father of Jesus.
Why? I mean why would God be at fault? Read the story. See it is all there in the Bible.
In the beginning, an omniscient and omnipotent being decided to create a whole universe and to take one little planet, out of the billions and billions he created, and place life on it. But not just any life, no. Besides all the various creatures he wanted to create a being that did just do as it was told but could actually think for it. He knew what this meant, what with being omniscient, and yet did it anyway.
When things started going sideways in the Garden home he created for his two people, he kicks them out. His two people were told to be fruitful and multiple and they did. One of their sons killed his brother in jealousy over his brother being favoured by this God.
God then kicks him out of the new home he had established for his two people and placed on him a protective curse that prevented anyone else from killing him. Strange that he did not put this protection on the brother and even more strange that there was a reason for placing the protection on him since the only people in existence at this time would have been his father and mother, having killed his brother. But anyway, he goes out into the world and finds a wife.
Time passes and this God is regretting having made people because they don’t listen and do what they want (which is how he created them but…). He decides to start over by flooding the whole world except for Noah and his family and some clean and unclean animals. After the waters recede, this god had another episode of regret and promised to never flood the whole world again (flooding areas of the world would be okay but not the whole world).
So, Noah and his family go back to work being fruitful and multiplying and the results are exactly the same as before. These people he created with free will just will not listen to him.
There was one who listened and was the best servant of this god so the god makes a bet with one of his sons, we don’t know the son’s name but his title was Ha-Satan, that no matter how much misery was placed upon the man he would not curse the god. He permitted his son to do whatever he wanted to the man but he could not kill him. The man’s name was Job. This is how he treated a favourite but I digress.
In a prelude to sending himself/his son down and being killed, he wants to show just what this means by challenging another another man, named Abram, to sacrifice his son to the god. Abram takes his boy and with a heavy heart lays him on an alter to kill him. The god stops him, tells him it was just a test, provides a lamb to replace the boy and then changes Abram’s name to Abraham. The lamb is slaughter to appease this god and the world keeps moving forward.
Finally, the time has come. The god has figured out that these humans are just never going to listen to him and they are going to continue to commit sins against him (like killing without his permission, stealing without his permission, eating shrimp, wearing clothing of mixed fibres) and he wants to be able to forgive them because he is so merciful and benevolent. He knows he could just say “I forgive you” but unless there is blood he won’t mean it. So he sends himself/his son down to be the Lamb and shed his blood. Now, finally, he is able to forgive these creatures he created but only if they accept the sacrifice and admit how terrible they are for being as they were created to be.
And in his mercy and benevolence he creates a place for those really stubborn humans who refuse to accept this silly sacrifice as being anything more than a horror story created by men to control men to go instead of allowing them into Heaven. This place is very hot and smells really bad and is controlled by demons and ruled by one particular demon named Satan.
And it all started “In the beginning”! This god knew the outcome of his plan and did it any way. Not just once but twice. He set it all up so he could come in and save people at the end. This is called having a Hero Complex.
He also created a neat little thing that humans eventually named Stockholm Syndrome so that some humans would give him all the credit for everything good but not only would they not place any blame on him for the bad stuff they would actually take the blame themselves. Like taking the blame for why Jesus was crucified instead of understanding that their god admits that he created “ra” to begin with.
Yup, that is the short version of a rather long story of an omniscient and omnipotent god who is also a malicious, vindictive and psychopathic god, and who created the whole situation that led to the crucifixion.
