Jesus Christ died because of the Jewish lobby that existed two thousand years ago and the ruling power of the time, in this case the Roman Empire.
I don’t understand how someone can be both a Christian and a statist at the same time.
In many cases, I believe they haven’t read the New Testament closely enough.

If we are gods, then we are changing the definition of God. You aren’t all-knowing, all-good, all-powerful etc. so you’re not God by any historical definition. You’re a human. And human is still pretty cool (at least by the Christian conception) because you can create, make moral decisions, live eternally in the future and more. Human is still pretty cool.
The Jews did not kill Jesus. The Romans did. The Romans condemned him, crucified him. We should not put all Jews in the same pot. And then, as now, ordinary people were stupid. Many but stupid or stupid but many. They were easily manipulated by the few and smart. The priests. The priests saw in Jesus a danger. We are talking about the Jewish priests. Few but smart. Many people read the Bible but so few understand it...Few people ask themselves: Why does the New Testament have only four Gospels? We are already entering another historical discussion...
