I have to say that is one of the weirdest ideas invented by people --
that one "worships" a deity with sacrifices -- by killing something, but
it is so widespread an idea in so many religions, but at the same time
is so illogical and, if I may say, just plain dumb, that one really
wonders what in our evolution might have led to such a way of thinking.
Christianity of course took the idea to perhaps its ultimate
irrationality by deciding through some mysterious magical way the death
of a piece of God himself was needed, although of course it was a
something of a sham since the death was not real and the particular
piece of God (the Son) was very quickly brought back to life. Something
like someone giving you a gift and then taking it back three days later
-- not really a gift.
