    Maybe he was actually crucified, but if he was, it was not for our sins. That part is as real as the Easter bunny or Old Gregg.

      Oh, 100% true. The logic behind the God of the Bible doing this to forgive our sins is asinine. Some good moral stories from the Gospels (some bad), but the story itself is the product of its time and place, not anything divine. I only didn’t insist that in the title because it wasn’t the focus of the thought.

        Oh sorry. I agree with everything you said in your reply. I was just being stupid. I quite liked your post, and I myself am not religious. Mainly just wanted to mention old Gregg.

        Great post, I had a quite sensible chuckle when I read it.
