Open to all-would you sacrifice your child if god told you to?

RE: Open to all-would you sacrifice your child if god told you to?
It's fun to watch believers rationalize human sacrifice, as if God's last minute reversal (funny how a being who exists outside of time can somehow change his mind...or act within time at all for that matter) negates the other instances of child sacrifice in which God seems very aroused, such as Jephthah (a "hero of faith") who sacrificed his own daughter as an oath to Yahweh. Then of course there is the entire crux of the Christian faith, which demands human sacrifice as a substitute for sin: "How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death,[c] so that we may serve the living God!" (Hebrews 9 has a lot more disgusting things to say--look it up). Umm, sorry but no. The poor, lost, deluded soul will grasp at straws in attempts to justify simply anything, no matter how absurd or profane. There is a label typically given to this type of person: psychotic.
