what the hell does that even mean anyway?
It's pretty simple there, tits.
people were bad, therefore jesus died to save our souls? or something. why would somebody have to die to save our souls.
You know, back in the days when they'd have to sacrifice like a goat or pig for their sins? Same thing, larger scale.
And because jesus died for our sins, doesn't that mean we can keep on sinning away and just proclaim that he still died for us.
Uh, yes. Anyone who is actually part of a (real) religion would know that.
this whole concept is stupid and makes no sense.
It makes perfect sense. Since you're obviously inept and can't figure out the whole sacrifice thing, let me put itnto terms you may understand: money. Everytime you sin, lets say, you have to give some dude a dollar. What Jesus did was he paid us all off for an entire life of sins. That doesn't mean you should just sin freely and without regret. You should still apologize (or thank him, in terms of the metaphor) for 'paying it off.'
