Define what you mean by 'My position'. Define what you mean by 'remission of sins'. Define what you mean by 'I am unable to tell'. Define what you mean by 'agree with this'.

What I mean, in this context, by 'my position' is 'what I think'. What I mean, in this context, by 'remission of sin' is 'being officially released from the consequences otherwise attending on transgression'. What I mean, in this context, by 'I am unable to tell' is 'I do not know'. What I mean, in this context, by 'agree with this' is 'also think that there is no such thing as "remission of sin"'.

No dictionary I know of would have an entry for 'myth Jesus theory', so I don't know what specifically you mean by that and you won't say. As I explained before, it's impossible to say whether the evidence you've presented is good enough evidence for the 'myth Jesus theory' until you clarify what you mean by 'myth Jesus theory'; I've shown how on one interpretation it does and on another interpretation it doesn't. Your continued obscurantist preference to refuse clarification continues to make you look stupid.
Myth is real and more real than any of us here are. Myth is truth and contains beauty to never die and can be sold one movie at the time, just ask Disney how it is done

Remission of sin is easy because sin is an illusion . . . and the grass is greener on the other side of the fence and it is better to steal your vegetables than grow your own. This is where confession is a courage builder so that sin may abound and now you can read more about this in Romans I think. etc.

The law was given to Moses not to stop the orgy but to attach guilt to it as bait to eventually real in the big one called Original Sin as that is the only handicap that divides humans from their own mind and so live as outsider to their own true self.
