[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a big question. [b]So, Jesus came to die for humanity. [/b]What did the humanity do that it warranted such a sacrifice?
Considering that humanity as such has not been around for much before Jesus times, if you consider that Paleolithic and Mesolithic ear was nothing to write home about from the ethical or moral perspective, then we have really very short period of time from the time of first farming and first cities to Jesus time.. those few tribes and few nations with relatively few people who did what humans always did before and after Christ..
fought each other and tried to overtake the next people's lands and goods. Nothing really changed, still the same  2000 years after Christ.
Why was it so important that Jesus had to die on the cross and what it really change? If anything? As far as the people and kingdoms are concerned everything is exactly the same if not worse.[/quote]

If you believe it.  But why would you?  It's a story, like many others.

Certainly, many people have taken it seriously through the centuries, sometimes by force, sometimes by training and family tradition, but it's still a story.

Also, through the centuries, many people have not believed it.

These days, it's easier to admit to it and the punishment has diminished greatly.  No more burning at the stake.  Just a little social ostracism, which is diminishing every day as the number of non-believers grows.[/quote]
