This is literally playing Judas' Advocate. Yes, Jesus had to die for our sins. but woe to those who did the deed.

And yeah, that includes all us sinners. It was our sin that held him there, etc. But there's something deeply disturbing about the people who were watching, waiting and closest to Jesus being the ones who rejected him so totally and vehemently.

Heck, should we praise the Jews who hunted down and stoned the early church? Their persecution gave us Paul's Heel-Face-Turn after all.
