He had a problem, and no one else could help, and of course he is god so he could have found them....
did he just not care that his son was going to die an excruciatingly painfull death?

Wow you really don't know Jesus at all. His mission was to die for our sins. He foretold His death to His apostles. If you actually read the Bible, then you would know this.

Jesus answered this Himself when he was being arrested and His disciples started to fight:
Matthew 26:52-54 Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back in its place! For all who use a sword will be killed by a sword. (53) Don't you think that I could call on my Father, and he would send me more than twelve legions of angels now? (54) How, then, would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say this must happen?"
Jesus gave up his life willingly so we would live.
John 10:11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
Because He loves us.
John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
We deserve to die for our sins, but He died for us because of that love. We just need to accept the gift!
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
That's why. If you would like to accept the free gift, check out www.GodLovesTheWorld.com to see how.

Jesus following the deliberate and well-thought-out plan of God,was betrayed by men who took the law into their own hands,and was handed over to them. And was pinned to a cross,so they killed him! But it was God who untied the death ropes and raised him up.Death was no match for him.
Men can not see this with their natural eye. Only those with a spiritual eye can understand and be wise about the word of God. God does not need any help,it got this.

Jesus Christ's death on the cross was a sacrifice,and the blood from that sacrifice is the basis for a New Covenant, to replace/fulfill the old one that Moses had brought.

He knew it was the only way to obtain a more perfect salvation. Jesus himself said that He could call legions of angels to save Himself fro the Cross, but He didn't. He knew He had to fulfill the covenant with Abraham or everything He ever taught, said, and etc. would've been a lie.

When Adam and Eve bowed their knee to satan in the garden of eden, when they ate the fruit the title deed to the earth was turned over to satan and He had to get it back. And it had to be done by someone who was sinless. Also without the sheading of blood there is no remission of sin.
So He did what He had to do, He couldn't change the rules and say kings x I changed my mind. So Jesus came and died for our sins and got the title deed to the earth back. And died and was raised from the dead and now sits at the right hand of the Father and makes intercession for us. And will come back for us one day and we will be with Him forever if we are saved.

Jesus is god so god died knowing he could stop it but let himself die anyhow knowing he could bring himself back to life becasue he knew when he had himself be born that he would allow himself to be killed so that he could die for everyone or there would be no christian religion..
You don't see the logic in that?

He was busy dying on the cross. is Jesus not a god to many?
It is evident that Jesus was not successful in his mission, like the prophet Muhammad, so his followers made a story saying that he died for our sins and his blood purifying our sins. ????
If was successful in his mission ,like the Muslim prophet (and kept hiself alive), this story of blood purifying sins story would have never come into circulation.
Whichever way you toss the coin the religionists will always have the head.
If he died for our sins ...and now we are all sinles...then why the hell the `hell' is created.....for unpaid holidays?

The act had to go through or the prophecy would not have been completed. If God had come and "saved" him from the pain, then the whole point of Jesus dieing for our sins would not have taken place. I know you don't want that?

Pointless. George Peppard hadn't even made the Blue Max at the time.
