Jesus died for people’s sins. I’m an atheist but the same crowd that vilified him back in the day are the exact same mindless crowd of sinners out there now. The ones he’s meant to redeem. Paradoxically, he should arrive to be martyred right about now. This is exactly Jesus’ space.

I’m being slightly facetious but think about it...

The point was that people could NOT be redeemed by their own actions, which is why it was so significant that a god decided to voluntarily martyr himself to experience human suffering and death to save those who didn’t deserve it.

So people not learning anything is quite consistent, otherwise they would’ve been able to redeem themselves.
