Aside from the comment most others will make to this: "It's bullshit anyway, so who gives a fuck!"
What if Jesus, out of love, gave himself - for what is said to be - the redemption of the people's sins? It would indeed mean that the innocent was murdered while the guilty were allowed to walk away. That is not good justice in a legal sense, but it is good justice in the sense that, out of love, the people's sins were forgiven.
Imagine being a father and knowing your son was as immoral as they come, but given the option of taking his place on death row - would you? It's not just, or righteous - it's simply love. That idea of love amazes me to this day, no matter how much bullshit and lies are stuffed into religion, especially Christianity - some of the ideals presented are awe inspiring, to me anyway.
