It might not be the most charitable way of describing Christian beliefs, but it is accurate.
Jesus is supposed to BE god. And it's god who demands blood sacrifices in payment for sin. Humanity sins, and god killed himself in order to allow himself to forgive us.
No. God didn't kill himself in the story. Again: I'm not arguing over any real part. Just the story. Clearly the Romans crucified Jesus. Also he/god decided that path. So no "you" didn't "make god kill himself"
Every Christian I know thinks Jesus died for their sins.
yes. but not by suicide.
Suicide by cop is still suicide. If you willingly perform an action that you know will get yourself killed, you are committing suicide.
I think it depends on how you define suicide. If god is omnipotent and guides everyone’s fait and Jesus (god himself) dies, isn’t it only due to god making that happen? Admittedly, this suicide is a more complex one, but in the end, it is still suicide, as the actions taken willingly result in Jesus‘ death
