Hmm. Interesting it was a young impressionable child who "raised the alarm" about Jesus being killed. A child's inexperience and trust is easy to abuse when attempting to get them to have blind "faith" in self-serving fairy tales like resurrections. Or tooth fairies, for that matter.

Why perpetuate ancient, disproven lies to help our children make sense of the universe? The truth is exponentially more incredible, rewarding and real. There's even enough tragedy to justify a good sob.

But really, when your Father is The Omnipotent God of The Universe, why is it a big deal to be "crucified"?  Its not like the book pretends he's a "mortal"- he and Daddy know he's coming back. Know it all, really. So when its preceded and followed by eternity, a few days beat up, hung on the cross and then entombed (at worst), is really not a big deal. Unless you consider it negligence.
