it was kind of red and sticky and gloppy at first, then it dried up and flaked off, and now, of course, its nonexistant, since the guy's been dead for 2000 odd years, andis nothing more than a few bones in a reliquary somewhere
what cleansing flow? menstruation, or enemas?

Almost every human culture has a form of blood sacrifice, whether it is animal or human. This "gross" custom existed on every continent including the Americas and especially in Europe and the Middle East. Judaism, from which Christianity derives, was a blood sacrifice religion. Blood was a symbol representing life and its shedding atoned for sin. This blood was animal blood and the symbolism dates back to the story of Cain and Abel in the Bible, although blood sacrifice can be found all over the world... in supposedly Druid sites such as Stonehenge, ancient Ur and the Maya and Inca cultures of Meso and South America. Native American Navajos practiced the Sun Dance which according to our sterile way of thinking was a masochistic ritual designed to shed blood and transcend spiritual limitations. So when you make fun of the shed Blood of Jesus, you make fun of your own heritage. It is a primal symbol, recognizable by the most "primitive" culture on this planet... just not our little technocrat illuminati valley boys and girls. "EEEw yick".
Yes- um, I've felt the cleansing flow.

Well, as I recall from that particular previous lifetime, I stood, rapt by the drama, as I poked the guy in the side with a sharp pointy stick, a spear, really. Blood ran down his side, but it was the stuff coming out of his ankles that really got my attention. I brushed the sweat from my brow, and pushed back that cheap, freakin' tin brush helmet all of us Centurions got back then, and watched the blood flowing down the rough wooden beam. It flowed in a stream, which formed into blobs and the blobs seemed to change as the blood ran and the blobs became little blood men marching in a single-file line singing, "HI-HO! HI-HO! IT'S IN THE GROUND WE GO!"

I noticed some of the blood from his abdominal wound flowing into this cheap, clay cup on the ground that us guys used to pass around after the vestal virgins came around with the wine, every afternoon (HA! Yea, right! Virgins!), and being that I was a pretty sick, sadistic bugger, in that avatar, I took a sip. Honest, I'm not lyin', here. I drank some of that weird hippie's blood and it tasted just like Cherry Kool-Aid! Didn't realize that it tasted like Cherry Kool-Aid, of course, since we didn't have any in ancient Judea, but I recognize it, just recently from that one time in Jonestown, last time 'round.

Without blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

We are covered by the blood of Christ.
When God looks at us He sees the blood of His son.

We are forgiven for past, present, and future sins.

We are Justified by His blood.

I have been cleansed and His blood washed away my sins,
never to be brought up again.

How in the world you Christians can consider bathing in blood "cleansing" is completely beyond me.
