Christ's sacrifice is scapegoating, yes. Scapegoating of himself. Or do you feel sorry for Jesus because he gave himself up for the rest of us? Not to mention that Jesus is also God.
Nobody killed anybody with the purpose of absolving sins: not the Jews, not the Romans, and not God the Father.
Christ's death was a sacrifice he approved of and executed himself.
But that goes against what Jesus taught. What's better than any sacrifice? If Jesus was God, how could a human do greater things than he? If Jesus was God, why did he deny being "good"?
Come to think about it, the whole "Jesus Saves" slogan goes against his (Jesus') name...
