I also think you’d have a hard time convincing a lot of people that Jesus had a relatively easy time being crucified. While it’s true that his was a much faster death, you have to agree that if the scripture accounts are accurate he had a much more intense, painful death. For Him to breath, he had to support his weight by his feet, which were nailed to the wood. Therefore, his weight was supported by a nail every time he took a breath. I think I’d prefer to just suffocate for 2-3 days then have my weight supported by nails for 3 hours before suffocating. Plus, you have to add in the scourging and beatings he endured beforehand. Doesn’t sound easy to me.

Sean Hannity had Mel Gibson on his radio show, and he used the term “crucifixion” when talking about Schiavo.

Crucifixion was nothing more than a common method for torturing criminals to death. The reason it’s torture is that the head will end up resting on the chest, which eventually causes the victim to suffocate when they are too weak and tired to lift their head up off their chest. You end up dying basically because your back is so extraordinarily tired that your muscles aren’t strong enough to lift your head anymore, and the pressure is just high enough that your breath becomes more and more shallow until you die over a period of 2 to 3 days.

Jesus was hardly the last or first person to be crucified, and he also had a relatively easy time of it too. If Jesus existed at all.

Not that Sean Hannity isn’t a complete idiot, but who in the mainstream press isn’t?

No matter how brain-dead you think some of his positions are

lol I am sorry I know it’s not suppose to be funny but it was to me. I agree Comparing the pope’s condition to Terri Schiavo was in is outrageous..
