[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 1158978, member: 22662"] Jesus was a threat because of what the masses wanted him to be in conjunction with who and what he was. Israel was looking for a leader to overthrow Roman rule. While Barabas would have cherished the role, Jesus seemingly did not. Crucifying messiahs did not begin or end with Jesus. There was something different about Jesus, though, or else there would not be a world religion devoted to him. Surprising? Not really. Although Jesus sought a revolution, it was not against Rome or even the Jewish elders. Who posed the threat to racism in America? The Black Panthers or MLK Jr.? Wasn't it Ghandi's peaceful revolution that turned India? Why didn't Mandela call for the heads of Apartheid leaders but instead sought reconciliation? Those in power can easily put down armed insurrection with brutality. The peaceful revolutionaries pose a more difficult problem. They are a larger threat than the Barabases of the world. [/QUOTE]
