"Jesus is alive" is the biggest and most terrifying statement a human can understand. If Jesus truly rose from the dead, if he is truly King of the Universe with absolute say over every life that lives, then a risen, living Jesus is the scariest thing I can imagine.

Then his "sacrifice" was meaningless and unnecessary?

So, that explains the huge number of relics, then. One of them must be his phylactery, and all the others are decoys to make finding it that much harder.
Hrm. A lich must create his own phylactery, and Jesus was a carpenter. How many "pieces of the true cross" are there?
Not scary to me. Jesus was a pretty cool guy and cared about helping others.
Maybe he's scary to you frums because he thinks your Demiurgic distortions are stupid.
Oh; The Book of Revelation was 100% symbolic metaphor stuff. Jesus isn't going to mass slaughter anyone.
Sorry, losers.
I've never understood the leap in logic: jesus rose from the dead therefore he was all powerful, god and the creator of life and the universe. No. You fools. Jesus raising from the dead just means he rose from on the dead. Nothing more is implied, even if it is true.
Supposedly the antichrist is going to die and raise from the dead. By that logic the antithesis is god too.
Christians will still say "Nah uh! Jesus did it first so we win."
Jesus seems to be a mostly mellow and compassionate person, according to the Bible account of him. Sure, there was that bit about cursing a fig-tree for not having fruit off-season, and the bit about people having to leave their families behind to follow him. But mostly it was:
"For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. [...] Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me."
What's so terrifying about that? Are you afraid that he will say "Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels" for not doing the above?
Confused?
