I'm surprised anyone would continue to worship a being that would order you to kill your loved ones just because it feels like seeing if you would do it.
But then there's the problem of mistakes. The devil turns up disguised as God and tells you to do it. I mean, with gods like that, who needs Devils anyway?
Honestly, I doubt orange really would kill his son based on a hallucination that he was convinced was real. Maybe he would like to think he would because his faith demands it, but I don't think he'd just neck his own little boy. I think he'd more likely grow a newfound scepticism, and come to the conclusion it wasn't really god. Or perhaps be physically unable to do it.
Just my opinion. I hope I'm right.
