Coyote Christianity

What has been puzzling me is,

If God truly loved Jesus,

Which I am sure he did,

since Jesus seemed to be extremely pious and righteous,

then how would somebody who Truly loved somebody else,

allow that other to be Killed (on a cross)?

The only explanation that makes sense to me,

assuming God's love for Jesus is like a human's love for their own child,

is that God was Simply Not Powerful Enough

to stop those evil ones from crucifying Jesus

especially since Free Will exists

and hence Evil was overpowering Good at that time.

This to me also seems to be the only explanation

to explain

why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Fred Hampton, and Malcolm X

were also allowed to be assassinated

that the forces of Evil (led by the evil one)

were stronger than the forces of Good (led by God)

at that time.

I don't think anybody has been as good or as righteous as Martin Luther King

in a long, long time that I can see,

so it is hard to see how he was allowed to be assassinated

as righteous as he was.

If you are unsure of this,

please go listen to Martin Luther King's speeches,

especially his Final Speech,

on You Tube.

Based on this,

It seems highly likely

that Jesus did not die to absolve our sins,

rather that Jesus died because God could not stop it from happening,

or because the forces of Justice are not strong enough in this world yet.

I base this solely on the fact

that if God truly loved Jesus

or Martin Luther King,

there is absolutely no way

that he would have allowed them to be murdered.

I arrive at this conclusion

simply

by the logic of love.

Therefore, further,

It seems to me,

that those in this world

will need more than love,

but also common sense, faith, heart, intelligence, wisdom, intuition, and

good luck and good friends

and every scrap of hard work and effort they can muster

in order to get by in this world

and into the next one,

and not rely on

somebody else to save them.

It also seems to me

that this world needs more justice,

but that will not come from wishful thinking,

but out of a true understanding, respect, and love

for God our creator, and his or her successors

and maintainers,

and not out of bitter hatred for him or her or them,

but out of understanding

and willingness

to work hard

with Good Deeds

and an effort to prove

that we are worthy of saving

and at the same time

in celebration of our humanity

and recognition of what it truly means

to be human,

and to show God and his servants

that the human being

is a truly marvelous

being indeed!
