No. If we trust in the main messages of scripture then our Lord's Passion was, and is, necessary for the new Kingdom to be established. Jesus spoke sternly to Peter when Peter objected to the idea of Jesus's death, and later told him to put away the sword so that Jesus may drink from the cup given to him by the Father.Try again Frods.
You don't deserve them, you cannot pay for them. If they're just being given to you for free then morality and goodness and what you deserve or don't deserve - all that's out the window Frodo. So why the bloody charade of crucifixion? Is such an abrogation a moral act (now you're making god/jesus out to be the dick..way to go)?
You don't find vicarious redemption to be immoral or abhorrent, fine. Lets string somebody up to a lightpost to pay for your parking tickets? That okay with you..lets imagine that they volunteered - all better now? After we kill them, we'll resuscitate them...so that they "don't die". Even better, right? Fuck it...lets just go ahead and say that this pays -everyones- parking tickets. Hallelujah, amiright?
(you really need to learn the difference between having a difference of opinion...and someone misunderstanding a concept, btw)
