After all, it was said that Jesus was going to be killed, not rot in jail and die of old age. Would he really have been considered to have fulfilled a prophecy by dying such an ignominious death?
Yeah I was looking at a bunch of prophesies before I posted on this thread but decided I didn't know what I was talking about and should probably keep my mouth closed.
I mostly wanted to say something about the fact that it was the resurection that was important, not so much the crucifiction itself. It's a common thing among non-christians to think us morbid because the cross is such a prominent symbol in christianity.
I had a friend once ask me why people would wear a crucifix, as it seemed morbid to him. I told him I didn't know why they would do that either, lol, I personaly would only wear an empty cross, as it is to me a symbol of the resurection, where as the crucifix with Jesus hanging on it seems to symbolize his death. Of course this is a minor thing of little importance as it is only a symbol.
