I guess you missed the part of scripture that says Christ faced the cross as a sinless man, but since you nor I are sinless we could not understand what that means. We are all up in arms when an innocent man is put to death for a crime he did not commit, yet you make fun of Jesus dying on the cross and He was completely innocent.
Christ was sacrificed for mankind, the blood He spilled was to cover our sin, it took perfection that we are not capable of to save those who desired salvation.
You want to make a big deal out of not being impress, Christ gave up everything when He came here in human form, He gave up his power, his place of sovereignty and every thing else He enjoyed in heaven.

Jesus' death is not a sacrifice because he knew ahead of time that he would be resurrected.
Bible god supposedly created a world where humans are flawed and can never be good enough for heaven so he punishes them forever unless they accept his son( who is also actually him) who he sent to be tortured and to commit suicide by cop. Oh, but his son(really him) knew that he wouldn't really permanently die. Can't you see that makes no sense, at all.
