Who killed Jesus?

[naomi24]

I was watching a television programme last night that investigated this question. Bible accounts tell us that following Jesus's arrest and trial, Pontius Pilate found him innocent. However, the Jewish people were given a choice either to save Barabbas, or to save Jesus - and they chose to save Barabbas. For the past 2000 years the Jews have been demonised for making that choice, but the programme concluded that the gospel accounts were manufactured, and that Pontius Pilate in fact bore sole responsibility for the crucifixion. So, who do you think killed Jesus, why was he killed, and if the biblical accounts were indeed, manufactured, why?

I don't hold any one responsible for it and never have and any one in their right mind would know that and a lot of christians do.
He had to die. It was the way it had to be otherwise there would have been no point at all.
But then History is never, or at least very rarely gets it right.
It is the same for any major point in history.
Not just any thing biblical.

Hello Tigerlily, to say 'anyone in their right mind would know that', suggests that anyone in possession of their sanity ought to believe that Jesus was the son of God - but they don�t - and with evidence such as that presented here, why should they? You�re right. History does often get it wrong - and therein lies the danger.
