Theological Dybr

I apologize for a somewhat blasphemous story, but it rather ridicules the communist way of thinking than a Christian faith.

My mother came up to me with a traditional question: “No, you explain to me who crucified him and why? "
My mother is 80 years old, she’s well done, in her right mind, she does something around the house, but there’s nothing with memory. Therefore, on any Orthodox holiday, she drives me into a corner and knocks me a lecture on Christianity.
It has been stretching for a long time.
My mother is a professional communist, all my life worked in the city committee and religion was a taboo for her. Then, already retired in perestroika years, she decided to join religious discourse.
And it began.
- So what does it happen? They were all Jews there?
- Yes.
- And Christ was a Jew?
“And he too.”
- And then what about these Jewish showdowns?
What can I say? Moreover, I myself am an atheist.
It’s good that there are believers. Mother talked with them for a long time, I understood something like that. And again she stuck with questions: “You can explain to me in human language what happened there and what we celebrate? ".
I tried to retell her a new covenant in understandable terminology.
- Imagine, there was a Roman Empire, like the USSR.
- It's clear.
- And in it was the Union Republic of Judea.
-Well, already humanly.
-There was the first secretary, a high priest, Anna, as it should be from the locals. And he had a deputy on an organic part -time worm - Caiafa. And the second secretary, as expected from the center, was called the prosecutor.
- Is this Pontius Pilate which? And that they could not immediately write in a human way! Well?
- Well, and now, they had a big party holiday of Passah. Everyone is preparing, there are reporting meetings, solemn reports, everything is as usual. And then suddenly some dissident arrives at the donkey. The declassified elements are screaming on his posture. Bad.
- Yeah, I understand that this Christ means. And what was his dissidentity?
- Well, he opposed formalism and renewal.
- I see, volunteer!
- Well, like that. Judas reported where necessary, Christ was arrested, decided to arrange a demonstration process.
- That is, they had publicity!
- Controlled. Anna and Caiafa gathered a plenum, began to decide how to deal with alien manifestations. They did not have a pervadial of the dissident, the sanction was needed from the center, so they went to the second secretary Pontius Pilate. They say that let's cut off the dissident of this, otherwise we will be tuned that you have failed to work with local personnel.
- Yes, these Bai in the Union republics are forever so ... It was good at least asked.
Well, then what?
- Pontius Pilate tells them: do not hang your dissidents on me, go to the Jewish forerunner Herod, he is the executive branch, even though he decides. We went to Herod, he refers, they say not my jurisdiction, and in general I have Herodiada worse than Galina Brezhneva, but here you are still.
- Wow, everything is like people!
- That is the meaning. Well, let's go again to Pilate, he finally gave the sanction, but with reservations, as usual: “I wash my hands, under your responsibility, I will write a report, excesses in the field, etc.” And Christ was crucified.
- Well, now it’s clear!
- Well, thank God!
- No, wait, it is not clear!
- What is incomprehensible?
- How can it be for the first secretary to be a Jew?
