Albert Camus

"I conclude that all is well," says Oedipus, and that remark is sacred. It echoes in the wild and limited universe of man. It teaches that all is not, has not been, exhausted. It drives out of this world a god who had come into it with dissatisfaction and a preference for futile suffering. It makes of fate a human matter, which must be settled among men.“

(From "The Myth of Sisyphus", Albert Camus)

Too many are happy to welcome such a "God". Not satisfied with the suffering of this world they rejoice in an eternity of it for all who deny their creed.
Jesusainity:-

We are born in sin. God needs "payment" otherwise He can only exhibit Wrath.

"Accepting Jesus" is the causal basis of salvation.

Conundrums. What about those who were born and died before Jesus? What about those who have never heard of Jesus?

Worries. Is it "once saved, always saved" etc etc etc.

Christianity:-

We are chosen. This the causal basis of salvation. This realised in infinite ways. The Universal Christ.

No worries. Simply "thank you".

Amazing Grace. Good News.

Anyone who seriously reflects upon the differences will find so much "explained" and "understood", perhaps for the first time."

Leaving now. I might be gone for quite some time.

Thank you.
Just to add, any defenders of Jesusainity are welcome to post but will be instantly blocked.

Christians however, are welcome to post.

Thank you. Over and out.
