Turn Christianity Right-Side Up
Believing Jesus suffered on the Cross is like believing the earth is flat. You see, I feel Christianity is upside down since Christians are coerced into believing Jesus suffered on the Cross to pay a price.
I feel anything to do with suffering (experiencing pain) is anti-Christ since He saved every suffering person, or group of people, He encountered!. Also why would Jesus not, and how could He not, save himself from suffering?
Christianity claims that Jesus’ experiencing incredible pain and dying allows Almighty God to forgive His Son’s believer’s wrongdoing!? That proposition negates humanity’s free will accountability, or for one being responsible for his or her own thought and action. “Saved” Christians believe Jesus was paying the price of their sins by suffering and dying for them. And they can thereby slough off wrongdoing responsibility onto Jesus, like alcoholic Mel Gibson, who says he’s assured of getting to Heaven and his unsaved wife isn’t. Jesus suffering to pay the punishment price for the sins of those who accept Him as their personal savior is a pie in the sky fraud.
Moreover, that core upside down belief of Jesus suffering further deludes Christians into believing the backward advice of looking forward to heaven, after they die, as the greatest reward for their action in the present. But looking forward to results distracts one’s full enjoyment and effectiveness of what he or she does in the present. One thereby misses the Ralph Waldo Emerson boat, “The reward of a thing well done is having done it.” It’s ironic that when Christians finally see the righteous reality of a non-suffering Jesus demonstrating being an image of God, only then will they be able to enjoy their God-given present, the gift of today.
Like Emerson, I propose Heaven and Hell are in one’s present experience of good and bad respectively; and when we leave our body and are beyond time and space, Heaven and Hell will be the sum total of the good and bad weave that we’ve experienced as an image of God on Earth. How’s that for poetry?
Christ didn’t have modern medical science to describe the painkilling endorphin biochemistry He could produce when needed; and His mission was to demonstrate what is possible for humans being made in God’s image. Thus, like a magician performing, knowing He would resurrect and and being able to spontaneously create a physiological biochemistry hundreds of times more powerful than morphine, He enjoyed being crucified and dying.
Therefore, I proclaim that Christians truly following Jesus will use their God-given free will to choose to NOT suffer. Moreover, any atheist, agnostic, or otherwise can prove (seeing is believing) that God (omnipresent Pure Happiness/Heaven) exists by enjoying a corresponding happiness in their life on earth. The purpose of Funology Foundation, The Art and Science of Funology, and other proven programs I coach and/or show my clients, is to help people have maximum fun with Natural beauty and purpose (God) and enjoy the miracles of total health, wealth and wisdom.
