No.. I don't get how you got that from me saying that god is in all of us...
This thread is about Jesus dying for our sins.
As if A Deity would require a blood letting for atonement.
All through this thread the discussion sways back and forth.
The believers want to keep their rant....
The nonbelievers are just making conversation.
And though I point it out repeatedly....
No one wants to be held responsible for their own sins.
Lay it all on the shoulders of a Carpenter that died two thousand years ago.
No one seems willing to 'fess up'....
It is the teaching of that Prophet that removes sin.
His word...His parables...are the means to remove sin.
You can't remove sin by a scapegoat.
That practice failed.
Read the Old testament to see how Moses dealt with sin....
Really?....lay hands on the sinner...then a goat....take the animal to the wilderness....leave it there to die.
Yet people believed such things.
Why do you think birds were kept at the temple?
Why do you think the Carpenter set them free?... as He also overturned the tables of the money changers....
Sin is not something tangible....though it takes manifest when performed.
Sin is of mind and heart.
So what if you cleanse the outside of the cup....and wash not the inside.
(ritual bathing and baptism don't work)
And laying your faults own someone else...and then letting him die....
is scapegoating.
It doesn't work.
