36. AND the Church also teaches that WE as Christians bear the brunt of the blame as well.

Jesus chose to allow himself to be put in this position to teach mankind about forgiveness and someone laying their life down so that others could choose to transform their life and give up the ways of selfishness and arrogance and turn toward humility and harmony.

The Church teaches that since this was done FOR US then WE ARE PART of that crowd symbolically and need to have understanding and compassion for people who were caught up in their time and listening to their leaders who were cruel and manipulative.

AND the Disciples were Jewish. Jesus was Jewish. Many beautiful wonderful Jewish people in this world are simply being painted with blood from an archeological dig and it makes no sense at all.
