That is an obvious gross misstatement. If we were worthless, God would not trouble Himself with salvation.
Your post here is the refutation to your claim to be merely debating. There is no way you are unfamiliar with the literally HUNDREDS of verses in the Bible about love, human value, and forgiveness. You are choosing, purposefully, to be both obtuse and offensive, all the while smiling and claiming to be sincere in your wish to discuss things politely.
That is just breathtakingly evil.
So, if we are indeed worthy, then why do we need to be redeemed? Why is Jesus needed?
If God thinks we're all hunky-dory, then it shouldn't be a problem getting into heaven just as we are... Jesus then becomes irrelevant.
Your religion (or at least major sects within your religion) teaches we are flawed and not worthy of God, and without Jesus we will burn in hell for all eternity. If we have value to your God, why would he toss us in a fire pit?
So please, drop the crap... I've heard everything I write about from Christians, I'm not just making this stuff up off the top of my head. You can't possibly be ignorant to the point that you can claim this isn't taught on a fairly widespread basis within your own religion either.
