Of course, Jesus is God, but couldn't the actual God do it? Jesus also happens to be God's son, but if God really cared for us, he would've spared Jesus and done it for himself. And if Jesus had to die, why was God so butt hurt over the fact the Jesus was crucified? And yet again Jesus to the rescue, as he told God to forgive the ones who crucified him. And some thought God was divine? Well unfortunately he isn't that divine, since he gets angry at his own creations. I would prefer Jesus over God though, since I believe he's more worthy of having such divine power. You know why? Because he's more forgiving than God is. If it wasn't for him, I doubt God would even care and according to the Bible, every human would face eternal damnation, thanks to the fact that he addresses all human beings as a group and that he can't get over the fact that Adam and Eve ate from the tree of Knowledge.
I agree completely with you sharpshooter on the that point about having a wide view on all religions. I was "hypnotized" by Christianity for quite awhile. But I slowly started slipping away from it. Mainly because... Well mainly because I just felt like that wasn't where I belonged. They were WAY to strict for one thing and, unfortunately, I am still forced to go to a Christian church. But that's ok. Because most christian beliefs originate from pagan ones anyway. But now that I am pagan. I have been enlightened! I can choose what things I believe and the things that I don't! :D
you also need to know that MAN wrote the bible, not god. also the bible has been rewriten and revised so much, that we do not know the original bible said.
I totally agrree magick it's an art of people who dare to use their powers... Church was really unfair to us ever since... But everyone use magick when thinking of something they send out their will and their energy... Christians for example pray... Sending out will power and energy this is magical....
