If they didn't do that you wouldn't be having so much fun here today.
Didn't Jesus basically state somewhere in the Bible that his death was predetermined and a foregone conclusion.
Haven't you told us a billion times that Christ died to save humanity? That he HAD to die? That it fulfilled a prophecy? That he KNEW it beforehand...
Thus, the Jews (or whomever else you want to blame for this, whether or not they are actually to blame) were not operating under a freedom of choice mandate here. They (or whomever actually delivered up Christ to the Romans) had no free will in the matter. Christ was going to die no matter what.
In fact, he HAD TO. Or else you wouldn't have a religion.
So in reality, you SHOULD BE THANKING THE JEWS (or whomever it was that actually "delivered Christ to the Romans.")
And by the way, how come nobody is ever pissed off at Italians or calling THEM Christ-killers?
