Christ the Self Sacrificial Schmoo

Take up your cross! Blessed are the persecuted! Sacrifice yourself on the altar of altruism. Don't think of yourself, think of others. Sacrifice yourself to your neighbour. Your neighbour, sacrifice yourself to your neighbour. Your neighbour's neighbour, sacrifice to you neighbour's neighbour's neighbour - yada yada.

Now we have everybody sacrificing to everybody else - doesn't that remind you of something? Communism!  That's the whole point of altruism -nobody benefits! If someone benefits its not altruism. But everybody loses,everybody is diminished. That is the essence of Christianity, that is the essence of Communism.

Sacrifice is sacrifice, it matters not a jot what your or anybody else sacrifices themselves to. It could be God, Alla (Piss be upon him), your neighbour, the Proletariat, the Fatherland, the Motherland, the Mother in law -you name it.

But back to Christ. We are told he effectively put himself up in the cross and suffered the most excruciating painful horrific slow protracted death imaginable to pay for the sins of the human race. A scapegoat in other words. This is profoundly immoral. No man can expiate the sins of another, take on himself the responsibility and consequences of another's sins -the very concept is monstrously evil. But the injunction is we should all do it too or if not that be happy that someone else is going to carry the can for our sins. Really? That's your religion? How depraved and evil is that?

But there's more! If we debase ourselves enough ,grovel and admit we are a pile of crap, miserable pathetic creatures, crawl on our knees and beg forgiveness from God for existing he will reward us in heaven when we die, with heavenly choirs singing as we praise him for all eternity! Sounds like hell to me. What if we say er, pass?! Hellfire - forever!

Ladies and gentlemen I put it to you, this is far worse and evil than communism.At least Stalin did not promise his slaves eternal slavery in the communist hereafter, at  least the misery ended in death. But with Christianity after death is when all the fun begins! The torture, the misery, the suffering, the mayhem -for all eternity!

Beside the Christian ideology Communism is positively benign! It has an end, a surcease. No, Christianity is only something that could be embraced by the mentally ill, the morally depraved, the craven. The most ingenious, man made crowd control tool ever invented. The power it has exerted over human beings over a millenia and counting is testimony to  that.
