Default Re: I would NOT do God\'s will if he were immoral

Actually, as Sephus noted, it was a reference to Abraham and Isaac, not Jesus. Jesus was just a big scapegoat. Do you really think it's moral to allow for somebody else to forgive your actions, whatever you may have done??? And further, to forgive them solely by having himself tortured and killed??? How is that right by any definition?? Also, couldn't god find a better way to forgive rather than have his son tortured and killed???

I don't see it as the fireman example you set above. I see it as the father sending in the son whenever anybody else starts a fire and also when there are other ways to stop the fire which save everybody inside but also put no fireman at risk. There's no NEED to send in the son in the first place, and it's wrong to ask him to do so in the first case, and much more wrong to do so when you (as god) could come up with another way which harms no one.
