The idea that he requires a sacrifice to himself in order to allow himself to not be such a dick is about the stupidest story I've ever heard. And he didn't sacrifice shit. Probably why it didn't work and things still suck as always.
Once in a while when I was a theist starting to have my doubts, I would wonder: "What if the Jesus was really Divine, but people killed him and then they used 'he died for our sins' as an excuse for murdering god. Matthew/Mark/Luke/John were just apologists for murdering God being the right thing to do."
I think this SMBC comic sums up what I'm trying to say pretty well:
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
