The idea of original sin plus the idea of Jesus having already paid for your sins is fascinating. It’s like being born with a bad credit score, being extended credit anyway, expected to fail at paying off debts, and have those debts be discharged in a bankruptcy proceeding in 1BC
Other religions have similar logic though not codified quite as cleanly. My ‘no obligations’ tweet was basically a sort of anti religious axiom: you’re born with starter credit simply by virtue of being made of n eternal atoms.https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1073751685212692480?s=21 …
