Man's achievements are based on the suffering of others.
Thousands of soldiers have to die before some great conqueror or general can rule and be a wise king.
People have to die before doctors have organs to transplant and make a name for saving their patients but if there was no donor could they have saved someone else?
Because there are disabled people around so the people who take care of them get recognised for being caring and providing money and food.
Numerous experiments have to be carried out in order for medical research to succeed. Some people have to die before a medicine gets perfected. Before the researcher can become a lifesaver, some people had to die first.
No wonder the Lord Jesus said that His purpose on earth was not to perform miracles.
He did them most of the time only when people asked of Him.
He (Jesus Christ) saved the world through His death on the cross. No one else could save us from the eternal lake of fire, even by their death.
Some people save others by their death, but only temporarily. If another accident happened to the same person (eg. Tom) who was saved the day before, the person who died (eg. Jerry) to save Tom cannot resurrect and save Tom again the second time.
But the Lord Jesus only needed to die once and save us once for all. Not this temporal body but our eternal souls.
Thanks be unto God.
There is only One Savior.

if ppls' lives have to be taken away, doesn't this potray religion in a bad light?
therefore religion = many deaths
of the people.
how to prove tt this statement is WRONG in tt sense?
this is a fact: I'm dying, but so is everyone else in this world.
But Christ says, those who believe in Him, though they were dead yet shall they live. I AM the resurrection and the life.
And again He says, Luke 9:24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for My sake, the same shall save it.
thru His death we get the same Life He has. Eternal life. Which is Now.
Christ never needed His disciples to lose their life while He was with them. In fact He made sure they never die together with Him on the cross.
But even those who actually died for Him later, He promises that they will be raised again.
the impt thing is to believe in Him; the Way, the Truth and the Life and no one shall be able to take us out of His hand.
It takes the True and Living God to promise these kind of things.
Romans 8:35-39
