I don't think that it is a choose your own adventure type of thing. And I would not say that a good theology, is what just suits your fancy! (whether that theology leads to atheism or Christianity)
So then, it depends on what you mean by "sick concept". I have the feeling that this is more of an emotional rejection, rather than a logical one. So then, the question is, why do you think this, and why should I?
It's not something you explain with elaborate logical argumentation. It's just sick and barbaric in the same way I view other forms of torture as sick and barbaric (or actually, even worse). I can't convince you that it is, but then again, not my problem. I'm just glad I'm out of that mess of Christian apologetic nonsense.
