Think about it - The only person who killed Jesus was God himself
I mean, it was planned all along that Jesus was going to die and arise for his sins. We can't blame the Jews OR the Romans because they were simply doing what God planned for them to do.

1. But since Jesus is God--it was Suicide!
Which is a Mortal Sin.

2. "Framing the Debate" It's a popular meme, let's make it interesting
And their saying: Surely we have killed the Messiah, Isa son of Marium, the apostle of Allah; and they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them so (like Isa) and most surely those who differ therein are only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for sure.

3. that makes sense, but
the last time my mom got involved with her church, years and years ago, her Sunday School teacher made everyone end their meetings by answering her question "Who killed Jesus?" The answer was "We killed Jesus." My mom was fascinated with this woman, but she made her feel guilty and my mom hasn't been a churchgoer since, although she pays huge lipservice to her denomination.

4. I always had trouble with that one.
I never did think that God made a good paternal role model in human terms. Looking at it from another angle, I also had trouble seeing how God would forbid a woman from having an abortion. He certainly would not condone it, but I don't see him passing judgement on it either, considering his track record.
