"Take your son, your only son – yes, Isaac, whom you love so much – and go to the land of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will point out to you." (Genesis 22:1-18)
There ya go, f*cknuts.
"Consecrate to me every first-born that opens the womb among Israelites, both man and beast, for it belongs to me." Exodus 13:2
Don't tell me that your old testament is null and void. If it was, why's it still in there?

God must have directed you to ask this question to out me.
Yesterday, my second youngest was eating shellfish. I know god says to hate the sinner and not the sin or something like that so I did her in. So, I'm going to heaven now, right? Also, I hate gays and stone my neighbors every chance I get. Heaven, yes???

All religions are man-made. They have been altered over the ages to suit the "believers" and the way of life at the time of the writing. Any religion that tells you to hurt or kill others is not a religion, its a cult and should be avoided. christianity is just another mythology made up by some people who want to control the way others live, but then most religions are. Before you start disecting a particular religion, study it and then you won't sound so foolish when you make statements like the one you made here.

We are not to sacrifice anyone, not even the trouble makers who twist the word of God.
Abraham was being tested to see if he feared the Lord. He was just about to sacrifice his son Isaac, but an angel stopped him in time to say,
12 "Do not lay a hand on the boy," he said. "Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son."
You don't have to be embarrassed by this silly routine that you waste your time on in this room. Don't try so hard to convert 3 billion people into believing that God is bad, or wrong or contradictory.
God loves you, even though you resist. He waits to hear your prayer for forgiveness....go ahead, you know that you want to!

Really? Because I would be very interested to see exactly where and when God called for us to sacrifice children...other than the story of Abraham and Isaac and even then God spared Isaacs life. The God I believe in is a God of love, compassion and mercy and would never call for such things.

Maybe God is laying it on your heart to ask the questions? It sounds as if you need the answer! God seems to be having you read the Bible for a reason. Keep reading God bless you Daemon!

The answer is none. Because the question does not reflect truth. It is a statement, but there is no fact or truth behind it.
A question like this is not a real question, and does not deserve an answer, especially does not deserve getting upset over.

Don't go claiming he's a Pagan. No one calling themselves a good Pagan would act like that. It's just a troll out to stir up trouble. Looks like he got what he wanted. Try not to oblige people when they ask you to help them promote hatred and chaos. It gets old.

How cliche' another pagan with the usual banter based on a foolish yet literal interpretation of the bible, a book which I am confident has not been studied comprehensively by the asker.

Who said God was Christian? God is actually Buddist and only lets Morans into Heavan.
