Human sacrifice is still human sacrifice, it doesn't matter who sacrifices who

If you don't have a valid argument against Christianity, just trying to associate its basic teachings with practices from other religions to give people a negative view of it isn't going to be persuasive.

Do you have a problem with Christ being a human sacrifice?

I have a problem with ANYONE being a human sacrifice

Okay. He did it voluntarily, though. He knew what he was doing.

Why do you have a problem with him doing it (if you don't mind me asking)?

Even if he was real, why would he sacrifice himself to save us from what god (who is also Jesus) cursed us with? Speaking of which, if god is all knowing, he would've known Adam and Eve would eat from the tree. Either he knew he would do it and just wanted us to make us mortal, or he couldn't have known and isn't omnicient, OR..... he's not real

A sacrifice was necessary, because God is holy and just. If he just overlooked sin, he wouldn't be holy. And because God would not punish another creature for sin committed by humans, it had to be a human who who would mediate and bear the sin (I'm using this language because I think it's important to mark the difference between the kind of sacrifice Christ made, and the vile "human sacrifice" of pagan practices).

And yes, God knew about all of it in advance, and it all proceeded according to his plan - the test of Adam and Eve in the garden, their massive failure, and Christ's redemption.

I have no personal problem with you if you choose not to believe in Christianity, that's up to you. But if you don't believe something, just say so. You don't have to misrepresent what Christianity is. I hope you don't mind my comments.

I've got no personal beef with JayWolf17. But I'm a Christian, so Christianity is important to me and when I see statements that I feel misrepresent it, I try to put what I think is the correct understanding forward, so that other people can read that too.

But I know what you mean about arguments. It does get a little tiring seeing them on imgflip sometimes. And like I said, I've got no personal problem with Jaywolf17.

The Christians didn't sacrifice Him though, He sacrificed himself. That's a big difference. You don't know what you're talking about on this topic. :l
