An innocent man dying for the sins of the world is not justice but injustice no matter how you turn it around. And if God insisted on holiness and perfection of man, why didn't he just make man holy and perfect, and the world eternally blissful, and spared himself and the world all the blood, guts, holocausts and suffering?

Ahhh...the $64,000 question, you think you're the first? Of course it seems unjust and it WOULD be had it been any other person but God himself, incarnate, in the flesh. But it was the only way - by design - like you say.

I fully believe that on the day we meet him either we will ask him, he will answer and we will be able to grasp the weight of the answer or we will have no need for a Q&A because it will all make sense. Until then some things we must accept on faith. Sucks for some people, but that's the way the cookie bounces, as they say. :o)

That's a fair statemnt. No one can object to your beliefs.

Do you ask that rhetorically or with the expectation of an answer? and yes, it matters.
