Again, you have no comprehension whatsoever. There is a reason why Christ had to DIE.
God married Israel (his people) through contract, and because Israel sinned, He wanted no more part of them. So, He divorced them. However, the law states that you can only marry again, only if the other half has died. So, in order for Israel to redeemed again by God, Christ had to die, and also in turn the people would be redeemed.

Now THAT makes perfect sense. Let me try one now. The Atlanteans were God's own goldfish, and after keeping them in a bowl on his desk for a while, He put them in a pond in his backyard. That winter, the top of the goldfish pond froze but the Atlanteans were safe at the bottom. Now, it's spring, and the polar caps are melting.. Rumours are of secret power-sharing deals with the Micronesian islands, who were lucky enough to possess pyschics powerful enough to communicate with the Atlanteans.
Damn it TC! How many times do I need to tell you to stick to your talking points? Repeat after me: "Marraige is between one man and one woman." It's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, and sure as hell not Adam and TWELVE ENTIRE FUCKING TRIBES of goat herders. Lets just both keep to the script and pretend you never said anything, OK?

I was originally going to say this is one of the stupidest things I've heard but after looking at it some more I've come to the conclusion that it's no more absurd than anything else you people believe.
Covenant is not exactly what you're thinking in this context. Besides, I have yet to see that, in order to remarry, you have to kill one of your kids(the biggest equivalent I can think of, regarding the nature of Jesus as the son of God)
However, the law states that you can only marry again
Let me see if I have this straight: God invented this law that says He can't marry again until His "wife" (Israel) dies; so to allow Himself to marry again under His own self-invented law, He has to allow Himself to be killed. This somehow meant that He was now free to "remarry" Israel because His death is actually Israel's death. Except that Israel didn't actually die; He did. But this somehow satisfies the law that He invented.
I'm sorry. I have to lie down - I'm dizzy now ...
Damn. I'm going to marry a country someday. Or maybe just a city, it will probably be lower maintenence. Won't go for Las Vegas, its too much of a slut. The Vatican is too uptight. The Netherlands is just stoned all the time. Ah, where have all the good countries gone?
"... the law states that you can only marry again, only if the other half has died."
Sounds like you don't know your Bible very well...
Deuteronomy 24:1:
"When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house."
What you have described is not to be found anywhere in your Bible. It's funny how we "heathens" seem to know more about the Bible's actual contents than you guys...
What the flying fuck is this tripe?
Somewhere, sometime around the time that post was written, someone got the peculiar urge and killed a puppy because of the complete mindfuck that was unleashed
As I recall JC was arrested, charged, tried, sentenced and executed under Roman law by the Romans, then the RCC rewrote the Bubble to get the finger of accusation pointed the wrong way. Also the Romans executed 35,000 other Jews in an equally "civilised" fashion which you choose to ignore.
The bible was written by a bunch of semi-literate goat-sodomisers in the first place, and is not a basis to rule other peoples lives.

God married Israel (his people) through contract, and because Israel sinned
Romans 11:26-32.
That is why you fundies have no comprehension about the basis of your own 'Belie fs', because you have never read your Bible, as Isaac Asimov suggests: Properly.
That is why you have no choice but to cherrypick, nay, ignore certain parts of Scripture.
Because you wouldn't be fundies if you didn't.
If you didn't ignore that particular part of Scripture, you'd realise that it would contradict John 14:6: and you wouldn't have a 'Belie f' in the first place.
And don't forget: you cannot spell 'Belief' without the word LIE.
You have no choice but to continually lie to yourselves .
9th Commandment, don't forget. Meanwhile, all Jews - religious or not - will bypass your J-boy and go to Heaven regardless, making him a sad panda.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
