The answer to animal sacrifice was not to "trump" it with the sacrifice of a God-man, but rather to replace it with repentance and prayer.

Baby steps. You've got to admit the efficacy of animal sacrifice really took a nose dive compared to the God-man.

You missed my entire point. Sacrifice is not efficacious. It is symbolic of repentance. If there is no repentance, then sacrifice is an abomination.
