@IceEB Never did sit right with me that the son of God was reduced to the same role as a sacrificial goat. Not to mention the dodgyness of this sacrifice making you get a spiritual "get out of jail free" card and making you less responsible for your own actions. I feel like if you sin, ya'll should have to work to make up for it yourself. I like the whole message of forgiveness and redemption though. I hate when religion dictates absolutes when the world is not black and white but a messy grey area.
