Can you explain this apparent contradiction regarding the death of Jesus?
This question got me to thinking about something that I have always wondered, but never really investigated.
Some people say that antipathy towards the Jews is connected to their supposed responsibility for the death of Jesus.
Actually, anti-Antisemitism has roots that precedes Jesus, but having said that…
If Jesus had not been killed, he would not had the “opportunity” to be resurrected. And without the resurrection their would be no Christianity.
So it seems to me that Christians ought to thank whomever it was who killed Jesus, because otherwise, their club would not exist.
Or not?
