Yeah, it doesn't make sense at all. Dude creates His own world, sin corrupts it, and because this Dude is completely Pure, Holy and Righteous, and cannot tolerate or accept sin, the blood of a sinless animal is required to remit it. Since this Dude also loved His creation SO MUCH, He sent Himself to die for all of us. To save us from sin which He hates SO MUCH. Makes no sense.
That's why I don't worry about termites eating the foundation of my house or disease eating me from within, cause I'm smarter than that.

I’m assuming your whole comment is sarcasm.
What does make sense, with regards to creation? What theory do you ascribe to?
That Jesus Christ lived a sinless, perfect life and died to make the payment for all the sins of the world. I accept this Payment on my behalf, because I am a sinner and in need of repentance.
sorry, I didn't understand your post sarc. I am with you.
From what? What do you need to change your attitude about...which is what repent means....and who told you he died to make payment for all our sins? What sins? And how can someone else pay that bill?
What a father...made everything including sin then tells his son you have to go down there an die in agony on a cross cos I can't stand sin
That's the story of Mithras or the green Man....king for a while and killed to shed his blood to make sure the sun came up after the this day and they would have crops to eat.
Or
Become the Aztecs. Their God demanded hearts cut out of bodies while alive to make the rain come
How primitive do you want to go?
How can you have a choice between good and evil if evil does not exist?
Jesus Himself told us that in John 3:16.
Jesus: (john 10) "The reason the Father loves Me is that I lay down My life in order to take it up again. 18) No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This authority I have received from My Father.”
I think you do not understand the gospel or the nature of Christ.
oh-- you are being sarcastic! :)
If God created everything...then he created sin....nothing could exist without God in god's creation.
God gave us a choice. we didn't handle it well.
Which God are you talking about. The Bible God? He is just a. Alien among 248 of them.. the Bible never talks about God other than the aliens
Hindu gods and many other pagan gods are all very real. They are demons. Demons are EVERYWHERE. Don’t know if you’ve ever experienced it, but next time you get sleep paralysis, call on the name of Jesus and watch how fast you snap out of it. Calling on the name of Mohammed or Buddha won’t have the same effect.
I was an atheist for the longest time until I encountered the supernatural. Got involved in some new age/occult practices, and let me tell you, it’s all very real. The people that rule the world aren’t just sacrificing children to blackmail each other. There is a supernatural aspect to this universe and though I don’t pretend to entirely understand how it works, blood sacrifices have real power.
I completely understand your perspective, it’s the one I had for most of my adult life. I’m shocked every day that I ACTUALLY believe in the God of the Bible now, but I’m telling you it’s all 100% real. Nothing is more important than getting right with and serving our creator.
No sauce, just a claim.
Typical fact checker
interesting theory. does it really matter whether the choice we were given (between good and evil) was by committee or by a sole entity?
I've understood it differently, sin is the absence of God. Just like dark is the absence of light and cold is the absence of heat. They are not there because they are something, they are there due to the lack of it, but it's just how I've understood it. I could be wrong lol
Are you saying the absence of warmth ?compassion.? Love? Sin in the original Greek means. Missing the mark...
..missed happiness?
God created all things, but before creation, there was darkness. So, that is what existed before creation. When there was not a creation of the sun, it was the absence of those things and it was cold and dark.
Genesis 1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.
He did not create the darkness. Similarly, I believe it's the same with sin; sin is the absence of God.
God is love...
1 John 4:8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love...
Love is...
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things...
The absence of these things are not God and I would consider hate. I believe God did not create hate, I believe it's the absence of Him.
Jesus is the way...
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me...
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life...
Jesus is God in the flesh, the absence of Jesus is eternal death. God didn't create eternal death, I believe it is the absence of Him.
The fruit of the Spirit...
Galatians 5:22-26
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another...
The Spirit is God, these things are the fruit of the Spirit which there is no law against, the absence of these things are desires if the flesh. I believe God didn't create desires of the flesh, they are the absence of Him.
Galatians 5:16-22
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
LOL, that's some suicide mission.
I wonder if he slipped the Roman soldier some coin to spear him in the side?
Pretty good chance the Roman soldier probably molested or sacrificed a child before that, considering how perfect this world is you humans have brought in for us.
/sarc
But do keep trying, all on your own.
We humans...you aren't one of us then?
Fine world your God gave us.....
Our God. Your denial does not make Him or the Bible any less true.
And unproven, divisive and primitive ways of thinking haven't played a role at all!
Your belief system only contributes to the greater good!
/s
I wouldn't say my "theory" is the majority in this world, you know what I mean?
