It is evil. The death of an innocent, especially right after they plead with the person in power not to let them die, is evil.

Fruits and leaves..what? Also man shall not live by bread alone....

You cannot sustain your natural life with spiritual food, or your spiritual life with natural food, you need both, but in terms of importance spiritual food is the greater need, since you are going to die regardless of what natural food you eat, but spiritual food grants eternal life.

You seem to be going off topic here, and I don't even know how to respond to the idea of spiritual food. I just know that you can't get all the nutrients you need to sustain yourself healthily without something dying. Thus it's not wrong to kill for nourishment. But nobody had to come down in physical form and get brutally killed just for "spiritual food". If so, it implies that the god you worship is weak or uncaring.
