Jesus doesn’t give a shit about you

Why do people pray to Jesus? He’s dead, and he doesn’t give a shit about you. If he can even give a shit in the first place, that is.

Jesus died almost two thousand years ago, supposedly. And supposedly, he died for our sins. That sounds pretty stupid to me. Jesus died by crucifixion. You know, where they drive thick nails into your hands and feet. Although, some say it was the wrists and the ankles, between the two bones of the forearm. They nailed the person to an upright pole or stake. The pole was then dropped into a hole with the person attached, so that the nails further tore into that person’s flesh. Then, with weight of body suspended in this manner, the person would eventually suffocate to death. For a time, that person would push themselves up with their legs to get each breath, but as they grew more and more exhausted, they could no longer do this, and would suffocate. If the death prolonged toward the evening, the soldiers would come along and break the legs of the victim as necessary to prevent them from continuing to support themselves by their legs, and thus sped up the process.

Sounds fun right? I’m pretty sure nobody would volunteer to be crucified. Wait, in fact I’m pretty sure it was a form of punishment…? Yeah. A lot of people were being crucified against their will during that time, not just Jesus. It was a common method of execution. The question is, did Jesus die on his own free will? If you were to confront a person who adheres to Christianity with this question, they would most likely say yes, Jesus was god’s son; a sinless man who died for our sins… god needed a sacrifice… or something nonsensical like that. Now if you were to point out one of the many ridiculous fallacies in their argument, or comeback with any logical argument or point whatsoever; they would most likely get super defensive; passive aggressively start quoting random passages from the bible; rambling; doing whatever they can to take attention away from the fact that they are incapable of providing a single shred of decent logic to their “argument.” Then would come the part where they treat you like a lost person, as if you are in need of their divine help. And would tell you that you need to read the bible or be saved, and then run away before they are found out.

Christians are incapable of providing logic. Because there is no logic behind their beliefs. Jesus lived over a thousand years ago. We don’t know who he was; what he was like; what he was thinking, or if he even existed for that matter. We are going by word of mouth. Putting our faith in a book that has been passed down and tampered with for hundreds and hundreds of years. Not only that, we look to people to interpret it for us. Jesus didn’t write the bible. You know who wrote it? People. And people lie all the time. How naive are you to be putting so much faith in what other people say? I don’t trust people. And neither should you. People lie; cheat; and manipulate, and they usually do it for their own benefit. Hm… The Bible started out as a story book, and that’s what it is. Stories. Fairy tales. It’s fun to read, but nothing to base your life off of.

This is a huge argument of a much larger scope. But some basic things can be said. We have no idea what happened to Jesus two thousand years ago; what he was thinking; or if he even existed. If he was alive in the first place, he is certainly dead now. And he probably doesn’t give a shit about you. If anything, he’s probably pissed off that you keep reveling in his worst moment. (Getting nailed to a piece of wood). Jesus is tired of your shit. That’s right, Jesus hates you, and your entire family. Quit praying to him and bothering him with your insignificant little problems. Pest.

The way I see it, Christianity is a way for scared; insecure people to make sense of this confusing world. It has no real substance. If you really believe that you can have a relationship with someone who you don’t even know, then you are an asshole. Maybe Jesus doesn’t like you; and doesn’t want a relationship with you. Did you ever think of that? Where’s his say in all this? You also don’t know if Jesus was a “god” with supernatural powers. To say you do either makes you an idiot. Or makes you naive for believing in others for no reason.

In my opinion, Jesus was a spiritually evolved human being for his time. Probably more than the average person in his time. But I doubt he was a god, with special powers. And he’s dead, and he probably wants to be left alone. So stop bothering him okay?
