Tex Wrote:You must assume a Christian metaphysics and evaluate from there.

Assuming a Christian metaphysics is accepting that it is a sacrifice because the Bible says it is, even though the circumstances of both the event and the being 'sacrificed' make the deed sacrificial in no sense of the term. You know, like how we're supposed to view mass murder as 'good' when God orders it done and "enslave yourself to me me or suffer totally and forever" as 'love' because God says it is.

To assume Christian metaphysics requires one to shut off key parts of the brain.
