The attempt of crucifixion was for humanity to distance itself from any individuals that the state deemed as a threat to the safety of the species. Before Christ, before that revolution, Bible number I spelled out instructions of a much more vengeful God, one who commanded humanity to compete for its existence, through fulfillment of goodness. Anyone who was crucified was crucified because the state had deemed that person existentially incompatible, as a weakest link if you will, if not instead a powerful emergence but, in either case, someone who jeopardized or challenged determinations by the state on the biblical challenge of how to answer God’s demands, namely by raising humanity in the way of the purpose through which the state had been erected. Crucifixion was perhaps a huge under-achievement by humanity to principlize brotherhood, compassion, equality, justice, and faith. Indeed people were cautious, but perhaps also irrational, as Christ’s example exposed. Forgiven for its sins by the Son of God after killing him, the reason mankind remained worthy beyond its transition from Bible I into the next era was credited to its ignorance.
