You didn't answer my questions.
According to the bible, god is omnipotent, so why does there have to be a sacrafice?
Also, why does god have to sacrafice himself, to himself, to appease himself from being so pissed off about man breaking a rule he made?
Finally, Jesus' sacrafice wasn't a sacrafice at all, because he did not lose anything. A sacrafice is when you give something up. What did Jesus give up? Nothing. He's now immortal, all powerful and all knowing. That's not a sacrafice, that's an investment.
