Have you no understanding of the Christian claim? That Jesus is not just a collection of ideas that pass down from civilations?
You titled this post "My problems with Christianity." Is your problem that you find the Christian story implausible or that you find Christian ideology somehow troubling? Because if it's the first, I can't help you, all religions are implausible. That's just not a good reason to judge them harshly. Most people have always held many implausible beliefs, including you I suspect.

Yes. There's such a thing as "fair". Things like murder should not be forgiven by trivial acts that do no good at reversing the behavior.
How do you propose that one reverse murder?

I'll just state this straight out; I'm against punishment as a whole, except as deterrence. Revenge is never justified.
