Well, I was bored as hell last night and I couldn't go to sleep, so I started thinking. One of the first topics that came to mind was "Jesus". Now, don't go flaming me cuz I'm an Aetheist or any of that bullshit, because I'm not!
What came to mind was the fact that he sacrificed himself for this world we live in today and will continue to live in for (probably) ever. I started to improvise on that and came to the fact that he showed us near impossible things. Through those things came lessons that he taught us, and we heed his words even today. But, the thing is, maybe we idolize HIM too much and not the stuff he did. Everyone is grateful that he died for our sins, yes, but one of the other things he did was show us that NOTHING is impossible. Even today, we believe that to be a lie. It's because we view Jesus as an individual that sacrificed himself for the better of all people and is the Lords' son, but we don't view him as a being like us.
Jesus had even stated that he was only human. Does that mean we can accomplish even more than Jesus? Maybe, but that's a topic for another time. What I'm trying to say now is that, maybe Jesus didn't want us to make him a celebrity, so to say, more than he wanted us to listen to his words and help OURSELVES to help mankind.
I see HOW it will turn into a flame war, but I don't see WHY! Why do people feel so abused when it comes to religion? Wanna know why? Cuz they're afraid. They're afraid they might be wrong! But, that's nothing to be afraid of! There is no right or wrong in religion because we don't have the FACTS to prove it.
Just something I was thinking about...
Just kiddin.
