Jesus: is crucified

Catholics: “Look at how good this Friday is”

Getting brutally tortured and crucified sounds like a pretty terrible Friday to me. An actual Good Friday would be like, Jesus getting high with his buddies and playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 on the PS1 while eating pizza.

Can someone please explain this.

EDIT: How about “Good Friday” but it’s Jesus getting high with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker.

    but instead he had to torture his own son to death for no reason.

    his own son who is also himself, if you’re not one of the factions who think the trinity are separate entities. The whole thing is a mess.

      I had a metaphysics seminar in grad school with a girl who was working on the mereology (part/whole relationship) metaphysics of the trinity. It was just pure Scholastic bullshit–literal “angels on the head of a pin” nonsense–even in the context of a class that wasn’t exactly grounded in practical concerns.
