Why is that not just as sadistic?
You forgot the whole "nevertheless, not my will but thine be done" and "no man take my life but I lay it down" part.
The former doesn't contradict what I said, since he's apparently obedient, even though he does not want to do it. The second is contradicted by the fact that he didn't want to be tortured to death, yet it happened anyway.
Eating to live is a fundamental part of life That's why they call it a cycle. Granted the individual being killed doesn't like it, but killing to eat isn't scapegoating. I'm not killing and eating it because I think it makes me a better person. I do it because that's the circle of life. It can't be considered a sin because nearly all life on the planet would die in a week or so if they decided unanimously to never kill anything ever again.
But it does make you a better person nutrition wise, there is a reason Jesus used analogies that compared himself to food and drink. Therefore according to your own statement Jesus giving his life to save the lives of all mankind cannot be considered evil, since the only other option is for the death of all mankind.
