Once upon "some" time, in the heaven lived a lot of People (well, ALL the people), and something other that may be called God. This "something" was the love that connected each other, and was so real that you could have touched it. In facts it was not human, since it has no choice but to love and to be loved. And the People that he loved was also more powerful than it, since they were free to love each other.
One day, one of this People, maybe the most beautiful and intelligent (not measured by the testriffic test) among them, so beautiful that wherever he goes, the light arrived, he made a particular thought..: "If I am loved by God, then It depends on me, on my feelings.. I am free to love It, ..well it means that I am also free NOT to love it: why should I love it, since I am powerful than it?"
Suddendly, this angel discovered that the knowledge may be used for egoistic purposes: he was the best one, there in heaven.. even better than God. It was true, he was more powerful than God but he reject one possibility: to love the People. And, suddendly he was out from the heaven, and a parallel existence started to exist out of God.
But, something of him was still crying. He was alone. Nobody loved him. He hated God for what happened.
What could he do, to take revenge on God? What is the worst thing that may ever be done to a father? Yes, he could steal its beloved children!
But these children have to stop loving it, there should be something more attractive to them than love. Yes! The same things that worked for him, could be used for all of them! Beautifulness, attractiveness, power, success, fear, mistery, curiosity. These are his new weapons to convince the People to leave God and go with him. Lucyfer build his own world, made of nothing. And it worked for most of the People, that was attracted by the "something else never tried"...but once that the People passed to the other side they could not come back to the heaven!! They did not know it before crossing the no-return point, but now they are lost! Conversely to the Bible fairytale, it did not happened that God got angry and sent People to the earth to punish them. What really happened was that People decided to go away, and God couldn't do anything else than accept what its beloved creatures wanted to do.
God was really afraid, he loved the People, but he had no choice but to love, and it could not reach them, as well as they could not come back. What could it do? The sacrifice of a human-God. Only a man, guided by his free will, and deciding in each moment to love (i.e.: to remain in the laws of heaven), can build a bridge between the heaven and the nothing. And so it was: regardless of the age, the history and the time (that have a value only for this world of nothing), People have inside the flame of love and can always decide to love or to possess.. but without a man that lived like heaven but into this world, there could not be for the People the way to come back to God. He died (on a cross, or by a shotgun it doesn't matter), he died to love all the People, he died because all the People in this world would die due to their choice to leave the heaven. In order to build a bridge he had to die, and then be again alive, because all the People that love would rebirth to a new possibility to live in love, with God.
When did he do that? God wanted that the People were free to decide to love instead of to possess, it could not constrain People to love it back. So it decided to let this man to born in a period when his work may have been seen by not so much People, enough developed to communicate each other, but not so developed that every corner of the world could have seen him. In other words, to preserve the free will to believe, or not believe, to love or not love. This implies no proofs at all.
Here we are, in this world of nothing else but People, to decide for our lifes. We have this opportunity to feel what is important. The so-called judgement day will arrive, someday, but there would not be a sentence of God that would judge us: ourselves will be the judges, and the punishment will be our pain in feeling how much did God loved us, while we did not loved it back. Forever, with no return, because we had one possibility, one bridge, to re-discuss our first decision; otherwise we would continued in the lie, without any other choice to love again.
