Round 1
Pro
#1
He was literally nailed because he broke the law.
Con
#2

"He was literally nailed because he broke the law."
We have much to address here, so let’s get to work: 

Statement 1. The Romans never had a free and fair legal system - (something the left-wing extremists (LWE) are also highly against, so not only do both romans and LWEs hate religion, but they also hate justice!)

#1 Proof for statement 1: This is a Roman dogma:" Non sub homine sed sub deo et lege” ("It is not by men but God and the law [that we are governed].”) God said 'Don’t kill’ and ‘love your neighbor like yourself’, so they themselves are self-contradictory.

#2 Proof for statement 1: 'His "crime" was claiming to be a king, a treasonous act in ancient Rome.' Just because the Romans labeled Jesus something through their corrupt legal system, does not make it true. De facto, it makes them the malefactors!

----------------------------------------
Statement 2: Jesus was hung on the cross between two convicted thieves by Roman soldiers. This was to fulfill the prophecy of Isiah 53:12.

#1 Proof for statement 2: "This was meant to show that Jesus took on the sins of humanity and died like a common criminal even though he was innocent.  Jesus was brought before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea, to stand trial after being accused of blasphemy by the Jewish Sanhedrin for claiming to be the Son of God."

#2 Proof for statement 2: Here’s the meat of the argument: "Although Pilate found no basis for a charge against Jesus, he feared unrest if he did not condemn Jesus."

------------------------------------
So sure, he was corruptly convicted. But it wasn’t actually true.

I might lose the debate for the next point I’m about to make, because there are a lot of lefties on here, but fuck it.

Statement 3: I am absolutely NOT comparing Trump to Jesus, but the way Jesus was falsely convicted is rather similar to the reasons for, and the way Trump was.

#1 Proof for statement 3: Both enemies had no substantial proof to convict. They also both had biased arbitrators.

#2 Proof for statement 3: Both had/have enemies who want to censor their message. This is because they both challenged the authority and establishment, which, if we’re being honest, is the reason why they were both convicted.

#3 Proof for statement 3: Jesus sacrificed himself for your sins, and Trump sacrifices himself for this amazing country. Furthermore, the Romans hated Judeo-Christian values, which is what America is based on, and the left hates America too. (Wow, they really are quite similar! Except that the Romans spoke Latin and were actually intelligent.)
