Jesus was not a man so a comparison is silly. God himself came down to bridge the gap between his holiness and our sin. He is the only one that could have done that. We cannot even pay with our lives to make that happen (a debt is an incomplete metaphor). Accepting his offer in no way infers a lack of character, because paying your own way was never an option.
Novel christology, you might want to check your cult to see if you're presenting an accurate representation of your beliefs.... but it doesn't actually matter whether you're okay with killing the better man or the better porcupine.  If paying your way was never an option, if whatever you've done is -that- bad..then you should accept the consequences, rather than hoping that a fistful of blood money might bail you out.  That's what a moral, responsible person does.

We've already established that you're neither, though, haven't we...sufficiently expressed in your very acceptence?  You're a cynical opportunist, out to get whatever you can by any means available.  Including the brutal torture and death of some random jew.   Do you really believe that the author of goodness would feel anything but contempt for you, in this?

I believe the author of goodness "...so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him won’t perish but will have eternal life." Forgive me if I believe him and not an some random atheist on the internet with a warped understanding of the atonement.
