Please make sure to have a serious discussion in this thread and provide evidence to support your claims rather than using personal opinions in place of rebuttals

Keep it clean
That's not a rule.
Camnator please. I'm only doing this once. Read up. Spoiler 2. The Rules- Personal Attacks, Harassment, and Flaming are prohibited. This is a site-wide rule, but requires highlighting here as well. Criticizing someone's views, or stating their opinion is wrong, does not constitute a personal attack. However, calling some a "brain dead liberal sheep" or "archaic Republicunt" will result in the deployment of the gorilla and/or banana, along with possible moderation.
- Baiting will be handled with on a thread by thread, case by case basis. A thread can have a controversial title, so long as the OP establishes discussion value for the thread. However, threads blatantly calling out groups of people will not be tolerated, and will likely be locked.
- Shitposting will be moved to The Flood. What constitutes a shitpost? If you have to ask "What are we supposed to be discussing here", it likely doesn't belong in this forum.
- Reaction images and gifs are permitted, in moderation. If it gets out of hand, expect a verbal warning. Ignore that, expect more.

And also, why does knowledge of the aftermath of His death keep His death from being a sacrifice?
He still had to go through the suffering. The knowledge of what your actions do don't negate what you are doing.
Would you be more or less willing to die if you knew it was only temporary as opposed to permenant?
That's like saying: you know that if you hold off a gunman and die, the people you are with will escape and survive. So you dying is no longer a sacrifice. You do the exact same action, the only difference is you have the knowledge of the aftermath. For it to be a fair comparison, I would know that I would be resurrected after holding off the gunman. I'd say the knowledge of coming back would increase my boldness in wagering my life, it removes the consequence of death.
What determines an act as sacrifice? The lack of knowledge that what you are doing is worth it?
The "book definition" of Sacrifice is: offer or kill as a religious sacrifice. In Jesus's case, knowing you will be resurrected in a few days and in the mean time dick around in paradise sharing rule with his father. He also gained the ability to travel between heaven and earth and no longer being restricted by his human side.
The sacrifice I was looking at was:
"an act of giving up something valued for the sake of something else regarded as more important or worthy". Does sacrificing the life of a carpenter to become immortal and rule over another realm for eternity with people praising you seem like a loss? It's not like he damned himself to suffer the fate of sinners burning in hell for eternity to allow people to go to heaven.
Jesus left His Kingdom, Heaven, all of that to become a mere carpenter. A humble servant. And died an excruciating death so Humanity could have a way to be free of sin. How is that not sacrifice?

God doesn't contradict Himself by sacrificing His Son, because Jesus WAS God.
This is something that gets complex: realizing that Jesus "was with God, and WAS God."
And Christ was the "sacrificial lamb, sin offering" that cleanses the world of its sins if it accepts that gift.
And also, why does knowledge of the aftermath of His death keep His death from being a sacrifice?
He still had to go through the suffering. The knowledge of what your actions will bring don't negate what you are doing.
That's like saying: you know that if you hold off a gunman and die, the people you are with will escape and survive. So you dying is no longer a sacrifice. You do the exact same action, the only difference is you have the knowledge of the aftermath.

So yeah, Jesus meets the book definition of Sacrifice.
Why exactly would a deity need to make a son of himself to get himself killed in order to forgive us? If anything, it should piss a deity off.
A "sin offering" was necessary to cleanse people of their sins. But to negate that and have the ultimate sacrifice(or "sin offering"), that would cover ALL sins......it would take Christ's death and resurrection.

Cake can be good when the frosting ratio is correct, otherwise I'm on the same boat. I love the actual cake part of the cake, not a fan of going overboard with frosting. Way too sugary.
pretty much this Has to be the right amount of frosting..........unless it's chocolate

You actually are in the top 5 for best avatars.
Who is the Top 5?

I don't actually have a list I just know that Lemon's would be in it if there was one.
We all know I'm in the top 3 
We all know that's not true, because your avatar is pretty boring
Not your list bro. And also, I don't need gifs to look good.

So today I was headed to class, and got a call from my work saying I missed my shift.
Which is odd because they shouldn't schedule me on school days.
GUESS WHAT? I drove all the way to college, then remembered...........it's Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Classes are all cancelled. So I drove to my college for nothing, and I missed work -__________-
I'm heading to work shortly to make up for that shift, but I can't believe I forgot about today.
I'm just very forgetful....
So I guess discuss embarrassing things you've forgot, or just crazy stuff that's happened to you today!

They are mostly churchgoers who don't practice what they preach, unfortunately.
So that number is off by a VERY larger margin. I'd say 45% is more accurate.
I wouldn't even say that churchgoers are in the majority. There are tons of people who identify as Christian but reserve themselves to a 'personal faith' which neglects going to church or participating in the community.
That as well.
