Many thousands of Jews were executed this way. So, it is the symbol of our culture, that life is suffering, and then you die. You don't resurrect- only Jesus can do that... So, the whole teaching of Jesus, got perverted, in so many ways... As a matter of fact; All of the teachings of the Masters, whether it be Buddha, or all of the rest, are interpreted by the unenlightened followers. So, what do you expect. After all, Bush thinks that Jesus told him to invade Iraq... Jesus has been used to justify all kinds of demonic actions... Didn't those Jesus folks used to burn witches at the stake. Now, there's a spiritual ceremony! R.G.
