The appeal of Christianity...

[damned_colonial]

... according to erinptah:

Jesus (as written in canon) is an archetypal woobie. He has magical healing powers, and he is Good and Noble and Pure and Just Wants What's Best For Everyone, but he is also Misunderstood and Betrayed and put through various graphically detailed tortures and then killed, and then everyone is sad and repentant and there are many tearful scenes from people who Finally Realize How Much They Appreciated Him, until the Magical Healing Power Of Love brings him back to life to forgive them all before becoming an Ascended Being.

Really, who hasn't read and enjoyed that fic at some point?
