Obviously I don't think so or else I wouldn't have written what I did...
What you think has no effect on what is written in the Bible regarding the sacrifice of Jesus for the remission of sin. You can ignore the idea, but it is plainly written in the Bible (Hebrews 10:10-12 is an example).
I am content ridiculing and chastising Christians for the patently immoral idea of vicarious atonement via human sacrifice; however, if you have some scriptural based argument that will turn 1800+ years of Christian theology on its head, I am all ears.
Simply saying you don't think so isn't a sufficient argument.
