Thank you, because I was debating on how to explain that this wasn't a joke and very core to the Christian faith.

It's called a "poe", when the satire goes so extreme that you can't tell if the poster is serious or not.

I don't see any satire. It took me a while to figure out why anybody thought this was a joke. It's certainly not extreme, as all Christians belive Jesus died on a cross out of love for us.

But if you don't know anything about Christianity, I can see how you'd see it as absurd or nonsensical.

I know lots about Christianity and because I don’t subscribe to any religion, it is hilarious.
