In Mark 15:34, just before he dies, Jesus says, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"
Jesus is supposed to have never sinned, ever, right? He's not even capable of sin, right? Well, how is this not a sin?
God didn't forsake Jesus, did He? God loved Jesus as His Son, and only wanted Jesus to go redeem all the sinners, and then come back on up to Heaven. So when Jesus said He was forsaken, at the very least, this was a lie.
And think about the context! The Guy who has been claiming to be the Son of God saying He was forksaken by God? That will rattle your faith. So even beyond it being a lie, he could have made all those people think that God was the type to forsake you upon death.
Please don't respond just to say, "See, Christianity doesn't make any sense and Christians are all idiots." I want honest responses from Christians or people who seriously study this sort of thing.
