And if God was all-powerful, He wouldn't require a sacrifice to forgive sins. You seem to be missing the whole point.

Not if He is also infinitely just.

Justice demands payment for immorality. You really should not try to argue Christianity if you are ignorant of the basic tenets.

Justice demands payment for immorality.

Then you contend that suffering has transactional value?
But how does that square with a just god?

If He was infinitely just He would not kill an innocent, would He?

Note, my argument is not against the existence of God, my argument is against certain concepts of God.
