How powerful can you be if you have to make such a massive trade-off to do something (forgive a wrongdoing) that people do every single day without so much as swatting a fly? What kind of pussy tells you "I'll forgive you for what you did, but only after I slit my wrists and bleed out"?
There are other deities out there that wouldn't have to sacrifice themselves to themselves to save humankind.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
