    Although..... Given that he came back to life, maybe we would worship the holy thread and knitting needles Dr Frankenstein used to sew his head back on. Wait a minute, the monster is Jesus.

    Better idea with modern tech ... Put Jesus in the electric chair... Fry the fucker... Then have God send a lightning bolt to bring him back to life right there in the chair. American Jesus smells like bacon.

    Best estimates are Jesus was born in the summer but the early church decided December 25 to squat on Saturnalia, an existing pagan celebration of the solstice. Same way Easter just happens to be on the feast day of the goddess Eostre. 🙄

    Nah Easter was based on the Jewish festival of Passover, and is about the right time of year from the events in the Bible. In Romance languages, the name for the Easter holiday is similar to passover. In Germanic languages it's based on Eostre and did have crossover of traditions.

    I was having this thought yesterday (and countless other days before that):

    Does anyone else think it’s super weird to make a method of torture and death a religious symbol?

    I remember a Bill Hicks skit that is basically: do you think when Jesus comes back he’s going to want to see another fuckin’ cross?

    parent
    2 points Flakboy78

    Well it became a symbol of remembrance for the sacrifice he gave for sin, that sacrifice being torture and death on the cross.

    It's weird when you think about it as "it's how he was tortured and killed" and not what his torture and death was for and what the cross therefore symbolizes

    parent root

    What's really weird is how many focus on his torture and death rather than his teachings and how he lived. Lots of talk about sacrifice, not a word about the Beatitudes.

    Why didn't they just nail the baby Jesus to the cross? Did they need carpenters that bad? Sounds terribly inefficient for a sacrificial economy. It's not like big G had a problem killing babies...
