It really doesn't seem like a sacrifice. People talk about carrying sin's burden, but sin isn't physical. The only way I can really see it having a lasting effect is if it was mentally traumatizing. However, I've never heard anyone say they think Jesus is a raving lunatic from all the evil of the world rushing on him. Like some war veteran with PTSD up to 11,000. I'm not sure how someone in that condition could rule anything.
The whole business doesn't make sense to me. This is the primary reason why I'm not a christian anymore. I don't believe it happened, and I wouldn't approve of it if I did. If people are guilty of something, they should pay for the crime themself. The punishment should not be eternal, though. Though the "crime" in this case is just not licking Yahweh's boots enough.
