Gnostics did some pretty crazy jumps to deal with the problem of evil. They eventually decided that the old testament God was actually the devil that Jesus was trying to save them from. A creator God that trapped souls in the hell scape of reality.
I've often joked that Jesus didn't redeem humans in the eyes of God, he redeemed the Hebrew god in the eyes of western culture.
I'm sorry the opportunity to deploy.this joke occurs "often"?
If you have it there constantly ready to go, you’d be surprised how often you can weave it into a conversation.
If you grew up as an edgy church kid you got a lot of opportunities, I'm sure.
