When the Ten commandments were issued, their faith (judaism) demanded animal sacrifice. The God of the Ten commandments demanded human sacrifice from Abraham.



Yep, then Christ came and fullfilled the law. The New Testament Christian does not need to sacrifice animals because Christ was the sacrifice.

The Perfect sacrifice.

This shows your IGNORANCE of the story of Abraham.

Atheists should not try and figure the bible out, it probably makes your head hurt. . . .

Yep, and the Old Covenant(Covenant of Law) passed away, and we entered the Covenant of Grace. The laws handed down to and for the Isrealites, and there adherence to them, were no longer "the way to heaven". Thus, the Ten Commandments, which were the LAW OF THE ISRAELITES, were no longer law. And nowhere did Christ ever indicate that the Ten Commandmenst were meant to be the laws of earthy governments.
