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

[The Valkyrie]

"Even you"

Charming

But your god expected Abrahamto do just that.

If, therefore, he appeared to you, and there was no doubt it was him, and he asked you to sacrifice your child to prove your devotion, would you do it?

RJA

Or seems he already knew what was going to happen,, what Abraham was thinking and what he was going to think he could have skipped the whole traumatizing "my dad was going to stab the shit of me" situation. The whole proving devotion thing makes little sense when you can tell the future and read minds.

And yet they keep repeating it as though their all-powerful deity couldn't know these things anyway.

It's like the "sacrifice" of Jesus thing: all powerful deity needs to sacrifice itself to itself to change its own rules.
