I just finished reading the book ''Silence'' by Shusaku Endo which chronicles the mission of a Jesuit priest to Japan.  In the book, Endo raises an interesting question, "would Jesus have renounced his faith (or said the words without meaning them) to prevent the suffering of innocent bystanders?"

:This question has false logic; if Jesus had renounced his faith, he would then not have been able to die for our sins and thus humanity would not have been saved. [[User:Kaylee19892|Kaylee19892]] 13:32, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
