Idk man I don't think I would be okay with being nailed to a cross even if i knew it meant living in heaven for eternity
there's billions of ways others have died a worse death - I'll take a crucifixion knowing I'll get eternal life in heaven any day of the week.
Well, according to the renowned astrophysicist Belinda Carlisle, heaven is a place on earth.
The earth will eventually be swallowed by the sun.
Living for an eternity means that you will be alive when the earth is swallowed by the sun, you will live in that crushing depth. Until the sun is either swallowed by a black hole, or ripped apart by the ceaseless expansion of spacetime, ultimately ripping your eternal soul with it.
Uhh. Billions of ways? Lol the mythology describes a pretty fucking gruesome way to die. Whipped, beaten, nailed to a cross, stabbed, and left to suffocate.
It happened to a huge amount of people. The Romans crucified so many people, it was so common place, that they didn't even bother to write down how they did it. All I'm saying is, it wasn't a unique form of suffering that was particularly difficult to Jesus vs thousands of other people in history. If the difficulty of the death was the measure, he didn't go that far out of his way.
Fair enough, but I also don't think that we should consider a few days of suffering for an eternity of basically being god much of a sacrifice.
I wouldn't take an eternity of existence under any circumstances for anything. Please just let me fucking die when I'm done.
I wouldn't want the worship, but not being a regular mortal, having powers and omniscience and the like? Sure, I'd like that. Maybe I could make reality suck less for others.
Under any circumstances for anything
