You are there defending human sacrifice by interpreting it as something noble and divine. How ironic.

Please try to read for comprehension.

Perhaps that’s hard to do through your biases.

Perhaps it’s much more fun to pretend you don’t understand and mischaracterize the statements of others while hiding behind your feigned ignorance.

I will repeat it for you.

Everywhere in the Bible, Human sacrifice is explicitly forbidden, proscribed and CONDEMNED!

The one and only exception is Christ allowing Himself to be a WILLING sacrifice, the one and only human sacrifice, for the sins of all of Mankind for all Time.

In fact, this was more than a human sacrifice, it was a sacrifice of God Himself, offered by God Himself manifest in the flesh, unto God Himself.

Jesus Christ not only had the power to offer Himself as a sacrifice, He had the power to resurrect Himself to assert His conquest over Sin, Death, and Hell itself.

He is the ONLY sacrifice capable of this.

And here’s something I selected for you from the Apostle Paul. See if you can figure it out. Maybe it will be all gobbledygook to you, but maybe it won’t.

1 Corinthians 1:20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1 Corinthians 1:26-29
For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

That no flesh should glory in his presence.
