How did Jesus really die?

Michael's Blog » How did Jesus really die?

You go away for a week to attend classes for 10 hours a day, finishing the day off with a free happy hour and all the beer you can drink, and look at the type of things you almost miss!

Apparently Jesus didn’t die from exsanguination, he died from a blood clot.

 Now the best part is at the end where they mention that Jesus, being from Galilee, may have been particularly at risk for clotting due to a rare blood condition Thrombophilia which is common among Jews from that region.

Blasphemy! The “Son of God” suffering from human imperfections!! What next? Sexual desire? Jealousy? How dare they!

Your motives are good but may I suggest the possibility that even you may not understand the truth of what you are saying? Are you aware that the death the He died was not the death of which we so commonly speak of, but "the wages of sin" death, and therefore He tasted of the second death? This is important, for this uplifts the love of God, and also show how odious sin is, that no other atonement could be paid to release the transgressor from his due wages.

My motives are anything but good here. This post is a ridicule of the absurd notion, that A) Jesus was anything but a man, prone to human failings and B) That anyone would waste any amount of time contemplating this crap.

Some other time I'll dedicate a post strictly the ridiculous idea you just tossed at me, that Jesus' death was somehow an atonement for a sin made by two individuals, who didn't "know" any better, over 6,000 years ago, and it's somehow suppossed to affect me?

do you really think that descions made by two people over 6,000 could not affect you? lets put it in modern day times... do you think that one single decision a president makes won't affect the people 100 years from now? 200 years? 1000? one major decsion can change things as we know it.. and affect the history to come. *and i almost finished this with a prayer.. but i didn't want to ruin your blogging experience.. if i were you, id just not go back to that muslim's convenience store.. it must suck to be constantly offended.

Umm.. Yeah, I honestly believe that the actions of two make-believe people 6,000 years ago cannot effect me.

My point in that comment was that were God a just god, he would not be punishing the child for the actions of his fathers.

But maybe that's just my own sick and twisted view of justice.

Oh and you can feel free to pray for me, I expect that sort of thing here, at least I know you're thinking about me ;)

honestly.. it hadn't crossed my mine to pray for you. you're just as capable of doing so for yourself.

and I guess its nice to think that 6,000 years from now.. people will refer to this conversation as taking place between two make-believe people. i mean we'd have to be make-believe to them because they weren't around to interact with us. so there is no possible way we ever existed.

Oh I'm sorry, when you said you almost finished with a prayer, I assumed it was for me, there goes my damned arrogance again.

And people may very well someday think that you and I were make believe. I make no claims on the intelligence of future generations, the way things have been going lately, it looks like people keep getting dumber and dumber.

The problem with Adam and Eve is that ALL current evidence suggests that we as humans have been evolving for billions of years, granted only the last few hundred thousand as something recognizably human, but that still a long way from saying we were magically poofed into existence 6,000 years ago. It's a nice fable, but that's all it is.
