Nothing new, really, but disappointing because I was expecting a real debate with you rather than the regurgitated stuff every one else spews. It is rather sad that there has to be so many different interpretations, Christians even hating Christians, when they all believe in the same God all because they disagree on what scripture is conveying. Please, share with us some more of your supposedly holy interpretations that far outshine that of all other Christian scholars.
An atheist who has never actually read the Bible, nothing new. It’s not a matter of interpretation, scripture never says that we are all God’s children, that’s pure 19th century liberalism; I go by what scripture says.

Would you be alright with me slaughtering some babies since we all deserve death anyway?
No, that’s not your prerogative.

No, God created man.

And what an unexemplary example of fatherhood he displayed by killing his own son. A sacrifice, by the way, which was anything but, considering that Jesus did not remain dead. What kind of sacrifice could it have been if he rose from the dead three days later?
Bearing the wrath of God for all of the sins of God's elect is quite the sacrifice.
