God is an embodiment of contradiction ?

During a discussion with a friend about God, a thought I found puzzling but provocative came to mind. I have discussed it with friends, and most seem to think it is contradictory. The thought was more of an argument, and it goes something like this: if it is true that God in some sense is the greate...

The Romans did.
No the Romans didn't kill Jesus. The Jews did. The Jews clamored for his death. The Romans being the ruler merely carried out the wishes of the people, namely the Jews.
