Ok, so heres my question for the christians, ...
why is the idea of god himself, without an incarnate form, without a sacrifice, without a perfect blood offering, without any payment, incapable, or unwilling to forgive?
so many seem so thoroughly indoctrinated with the christian ideas... that the idea of god himself, being capable of forgiving by will alone, is unimaginable.
but why is this so? I know I have my theorys as to how these views came to be taught by the church, but how people actually accept this leap of rationale.
does it see just for people to be punished for eternity from the wrongdoings of one life?
does it seem loving to have such a scenario?
if you feel "the sacrifice" was "required" ... why would it be? I mean this is GOD here. whos keeping tabs on the books making sure each debt is paid?
wouldn't it be more loving, just, and rational, to simply require each person to do their best, repent, and then be cleansed, of sin, by will? Grace?
