    If you care about people then you want to help the most people....question: so which would help the most people: you killing Hitler, killing "The Devil", or killing Jesus?

    Me, I'd have to say killing Jesus would help the most people, by far, since Jesus is allegedly seeing that around 70 BILLION people (that's the 70% non-Christian percentage of the world times the roughly 100 billion people who have ever lived) get brutally, savagely, forever tortured in his own personal Auschwitz ("hell"). He's allegedly all-powerful, so if he was fair and had love in his heart, he could change that barbaric scheme by snapping his all-powerful fingers. Hitler did not come remotely close to torturing, forever, even close to that many people. Six million Jews is not even 1/1000 as many as the 70 billion, so Jesus is roughly 1,100,000% more brutal than even "the worst person to have ever lived" (Hitler.) That's 1.1 MILLION percent worse than Hitler. "The Devil" (he's no more real than Harry Potter, but for argument's sake) tries to really mess people up, but he certainly won't torture, brutally, savagely, 70% of all people, forever. So compared to Jesus, "The Devil" is somewhat benign. Also, the "all-powerful" god/Jesus could allegedly have eliminated Hitler and “The Devil”, if he was a loving person who cared about people enough to do that....I would have.
    So if you want to help good people, as soon as they invent a time machine, you know what to do......

    But what are your thoughts?

    The 16 year-old Hindu girl from a village where they don't really hear much about Jesus at all, who dies and then is sent to Jesus' barbaric, sadistic, immoral lake of fire? Well, no, Jesus is too much of a prick to educate her enough for her to decide to believe in Jesus - he could snap his magic fingers, but he's too much of an SOB to do that. Terrible role model, that guy.

    But even if "Jesus gives people a way out", it would still help people a bunch if he was killed - assuming that would eliminate his after-life torture chamber - that didn't really appear like that until the NEW Testament ("Sheol" was quite tame by comparison, so Jesus and pals ramped up the torture factor as they weren't scaring people enough.) The OT didn't have enough fear for Jesus' tastes. Jesus....the fearmeister.
