The crucifixion would have happened sooner or later. No " replacement man" was necessary.

Please keep the questions on history on topic. The bible is not a historically accurate document.
But to answer your question, sure, this God has to make his "son" seem special somehow, and as with most infamous people (real or imaginary), he is killed.
To quote the person below:
"To the person who says that the Bible is not historically accurate, maybe he/she should do a little research. There are thousands of manuscripts of the books of the Bible while there are only double digit manuscripts of the history we teach in our schools. If we claim that the Bible is not historically accurate, what does that say about our history books?"
Amount of writing does not guarantee or even provide any evidence for accuracy necessarily. At least our history books are based on facts instead of some bullsh it oral tradition that has apparently taken you for a ride. At any rate, our real history books are not the ones given to the average elementary or high school students, they are the books written by people who aren't proud of the horrible things our ancestors have done. What are these thousands of manuscripts you speak of anyway?

The fact of the matter is that God knew what was going to happen since the beginning of time, so what happened was predestined. God doesn't need replacement plans because He knows what is going to happen and His plan is perfect.

God didn't have any "replacement," but there were plenty of people who wanted Jesus crucified, so it would have gone ahead anyways sooner or later. Remember the crowd who shouted "Barabas"? God isn't responsible for the crucifixion, but sinful humanity.
