It seems that people are so worried about being politically correct that We are changing history to suit our needs. I guess that means we will never hear about the Witch burnings that Christians were responsible for? Yea, right. It is history and there is no reason it shouldn't be told the way it is written.

Has anyone ever read "1984"? Are we headed toward a society that alters history to keep the population pacified? Jesus was a Jew who was hated by many other Jews, especially those with power. The fact is that they wanted him gone. They did God's work and helped the Romans crucify him. That was the plan. No matter who you are that is the story. I, Personally, would like to thank the Jewish for their part in crucifying Christ. It is what God wanted them to do so that Christ would die for my sins.

It's been said that there is a world of difference between God knowing the future and Him orchestrating it. I hate to wax theological, but here goes: although God knows the future and what is to come, His knowing does not negate the fact that we are free moral agents and have the power of choice..

The Jew and Romans (the world) who crucified Christ chose to do so. Similarly, people today have the power to receive Jesus the Christ for our atonement or reject Him.
