Foxx’s message was in reference to a prior post, no longer found on his feed, which read, “They killed this dude named Jesus… What do you think they’ll do to you???!” He ended the post with the hashtags #fakefriends and #fakelove.

    Why do some Christians blame Jews or anyone for killing Jesus? I mean isn’t that what Jesus wanted? Wasn’t that the predefined plan? Kinda like Judas. If it was determined by god that Judas would betray Jesus, why should Judas be punished for it, and how is that free will?

    Anyways, it makes no sense.

      The Bible do not make sense. The more you read it the more you’ll be convinced that its all bull shit.

      There is a saying among atheist (paraphrased) “The road to atheism is through the bible” or “Only atheists have read the Bible cover to cover.”

      I mean, wasn’t it the Romans who killed Jesus anyway? Like, sure the Jews gave him up, but the Romans were the ones who wanted him dead.

      And it’s not like he actually died, he was resurrected 3 days later by himself.

      There was a splitter sect in early Christianity that went back to Jerusalem. At some point they were cast out of the temples and formed their own. They became bitter and angry. Gradually the other books of Christianity seeped into this community and at some point the fourth gospel (traditional called John) was written. Pilot and the Romans were recast as innocent powerless against the Pharisees. You can see for yourself the difference between Pilot’s interrogation in Mark, where Pilot is really hung up on the challenge to the throne, vs John where Pilot is working hard to prove that Jesus is innocent.

      As the Gospel with the most developed spiritual stuff, a proto-trinity, it is often the most studied and read from. Reneforcing the antisemitism.

      I guess the moral of the story is make sure to rotate your tires on every oil change.
