    Follow Jebus if you don’t want to die - is just extortion. Than again - old testament god was a bad boy himself, he would definitely approve, I mean he was really into murder.

          Following Jesus is literally free. How is a free pardon for our crimes a gift?

            I did not commit any crimes and don’t have any sins, so there is nothing to forgive - and if so only people I wronged can forgive me. Also it’s not free since it’s coupled on a ton of conditions.

              I doubt that you don’t have any sins. Because we all do. What “conditions” concern you?

                Sins is not a universal concept, it’s a christian thing to make people feel bad about themselfs. Often just basic human experiences like lust are somehow defined as bad and than moral apostles like you claim everyone is a sinner.

                What “conditions” concern you?

                Something is not free if you tie it in with conditions, I know you struggle with meanings of words an logic - but try to keep up.

                  Basically every religion has some idea of sin. It’s atheism which tries and removes that by claiming objective morality doesn’t exist, and that morality is merely just subjective and what people agree upon.

                  I asked you what conditions you were concerned about for salvation, and you didn’t mention one but tried to demean me again as if I don’t know what “conditions” mean.
