If Christ died on the cross for all of humanity

Paul of course, is the only reason Christianity did not fade away in its infancy. The fact that he was opposing the early Christian groups give rise to the notion that he indeed was susceptiple to imagining his adversary in a psyshotramautic vision--quest.

Whatever. Once again we are debating supernatural events. How can I disprove a vision that one person supposedly saw?

Let me ask you this: What kind of father of God would hide himself in this way?

Let me put it another way: What kind of supernatural being prefers to leave behind confusion in his wake? Who is it really that commits good deeds and bad deeds (and the God of the old testament did quite a number of them --"and so He smote them, women and children..."), just out of a kind of pleasure seeking whim?

The answer: A trickster.

Our ancients have passed on countless stories of tricksters, and Jehovah is a prime example of the trickster who does both good and evil and hides himself.

Eli...Eli...why hast Thou forsaken me?"

It is what it is.

And what I am not is an atheist--no labels (not you, but others have called me that). I do not want a black vs white "deist vs Atheist battle. I am simply expanding consciousness, if at all possible.

Almost everybody knows jolly old Santa is just a made up character while Jesus was for real. 

Santa's references will be found in the fairy tale made up fictional books while Jesus' references  will be found in the non-fictional historical books such as the Holy Bible.

You don't really know that you have free will, or whether there are conditions that are determining your existence. You cannot presume you know God's intent. Why do you give God human emotions and thought processes? I could just as easily play the 'prickly intellectiual' who snobbishly believes he knows everything, and ask YOU all of the questions about HUGE errors and omissions in the bible--but choose not to do so, because it is ultimately useless. You play your game because you are trying (or support those who do try) to evangelicize, spread the word, convert non-believers.

And ultimately (wittingly or otherwise) you are keeping man UNFREE (taking away his free will) by threatening him with damnation. So go ahead and play the 'modern Moses' game.' Whatever, man. Please lay off the rest of us--stop trying to realize your Earthly prizes--such as political power, economic power (a la Joel Osteen and his 'prosperity preaching' antics that influence millions) or territorial gains (the Catholic church is the largest landowner in the world), or influence world leaders (need I give examples throughout history of christian exploits, tortures, genocides...???).

This is leading nowhere; as it is supposed to do.

Oh, before you say "Those were non-christians..."to abdicate all the crusade soldiers and leaders (in all continents with different names, different motivations, flags, lusts), please ask yourself if it is fair to take away responsibility by Jesus' death on the cross?

I cannot think of a more dangerous hoax than this. To let everyone off the hook because God allowed his only son to be beaten, then crucified (and by the way, Jesus never died on the cross--you cannot prove it, and it is more plausible he was hustled away before the end of Jewish Passover).

To condone irresponsibility is SICK and a perversion, and is tantamount to carrying a weightes stone around us all until we slay all of these 'Thou Shalts' and uphold the best of humanity--taking care of the Earth (not being irresponsible and EGOTISTICAL).

I watched it and glad I did, I found it quite entertaining and there were other videos just as entertaining.

You can't watch it with a closed-mind...know what I mean? 

I sincerely hope this "teaparty" and "Occupy Wall Street" protesting ameliorates into some kind of "Occupy the Churches" movement. Churches have no right to enjoy a tax free status, and to avoid paying property taxes, and taking up PRIME REAL ESTATE across the country for no other purpose except to pander their religion to us, and to other countries (what a waste). They give nothing back--not even hope, only delusions.

I wish it would happen in my lifetime that this real estate were used for schools, parks, hospitals--anything but for a failed religion. Future generations will be more enlightened than we were.

OK, I'll start this right now: ELIMINATE TAX FREE STATUS for ALL RELIGIONS (and their businesses) NOW!!!! PAY OR GET OUT!!!!

It's just a matter of time son...just a matter of time.

God said, "I will even laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your dread comes" (Prov. 1:26).
