That's why God called him righteous.
Someone said that the Christians would dodge the question by saying God would not ask that of us. Well call it a dodge if you like but, I know my God well enough to know He would not ask that of Christians, I know that through trust and faith. This is why I can live a very comfortable and reasonable life with God, I know He is smarter than the atheist here that think God would ask us such. I do not have to worry about such silly and unreasonable things atheist pull out of their butts.

The whole point of the story is to show that you should be willing to give anything to Yahweh. What other lesson would there be? Even if you trust that he wouldn't take your children away, you should still have the mindset that you would kill your child for him if he really wanted you to.

It's a dick move that no benevolent person would do to someone.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
