Jesus: is crucified

Catholics: “Look at how good this Friday is”

Getting brutally tortured and crucified sounds like a pretty terrible Friday to me. An actual Good Friday would be like, Jesus getting high with his buddies and playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 on the PS1 while eating pizza.

Can someone please explain this.

EDIT: How about “Good Friday” but it’s Jesus getting high with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker.

It's good because the whole sacrifice thing is a sacrifice in the old school sense - Jesus is sacrificing himself (somehow) so everyone's naughty deeds are forgiven and they all go to heaven. So it's good for humanity. Kind of a bigger scope thing.

Ah, my favorite contradiction within christianity, which broadly lead to the great schism, the arguments around Consubstantiation. It's fun to think of the different points of view regarding the exact nature and amount of Divinity vs Mortality in Jesus and understand how important it is to the religion as a whole.

It just sounds like people arguing about homestuck, to me. Like it's occasionally interesting to look at but then I remember how silly it all is, just loops and loops of people arguing about their head cannon for their blorbo, and I quickly remember why I generally stopped being interested in it.
