What better way to show your faith and love and trust in God then to lay down your own child's life for Him? It's one of the most beautiful passages in the Bible.

Wouldn't it be an even better way to show your faith and trust in god to lay down your own life, since you'll assured of your place in heaven and all that? Go ahead. We won't try to stop you.
In the meantime, I hope somebody calls the police on you and your child is taken away and given to someone less homicidal.
I think I'm going to take a break from this site. An indefinite one.

They have to be born. Since a fetus is not a human being and cannot feel emotions or pain it would be highly immoral to kill it. Today's best laugh. Thanks a lot.
Andrea Yates award, indeed.
Or the ultimate Poe.
But if this is for realz, ...ugh.
God telling Abraham to sacrifice his only son to Him has to be one of the vilest, most sadistic passages in the OT, and this fuckwit finds it inspirational.
Just one of the many reasons why rational people who read the Bible end up by leaving the church and becoming atheists.
This ACTUALLY turns my stomach. When religion alienates a parent from his or her own child, it shows that it has the strongest and most evil power of them all because it has broken the strongest bond that can exist between humans. Disgusting. It actually really disturbs me when I hear people say that they love god more than they love their own CHILDREN (I realize that's slightly different, but it's still an alienation of the parent-child bond). That's fucked up.

Maybe so, but I could think of better ways for God to show His love and trust in Abraham than to tell him to kill his son, then tell him "OK, you don't have to; I was only kidding".
Why would I want to love or trust a God that suggested I kill a child?
If it ever comes down to "kill a child or go to hell" then remind me to pack my fire extinguisher. 'Cos this is one seriously twisted idea.
Only a twisted sick in the head fundie could think the sacrificial murder of child to appease imaginary deity jealousy and vanity , is beautiful and wonderful thing.
Please Beatitude go and seek some professional help .Your mind is twisted sick place .and you are danger to the people around you .
"Since a fetus is not a human being and cannot feel emotions or pain it would be highly immoral to kill it."
Thanks for clearing that up.
Seems killing one's own children is just the sort of thing natural selection favors. Go fundies! KILL! KILL! KILL!
Beatitude, cut the middle man and simply do not reproduce, EVER. If there are any children reading this over Beatitude's shoulder: Run. Run now before it's too late.
Evil Motherfucker of the Month award?
you're a sick fuck, and I hope authorities have been warned about what a danger you are to children around you, most especially your own.
I just hope you don't have any in the first place...
So what's the difference between Christians and Satanists?
Easy. Satanists sacrifice people for occult power, whereas Christians sacrifice people because it makes them feel speshul. To put it another way, Satanists have higher moral standards because it takes a bigger bribe to corrupt them.

Wrong. Satanists (except for the ones in movies and Chick tracts) don't sacrifice people. Those that even believe in supernatural power actually use - no joke - sexual stimulation.
One of my close friends is a LaVeyan Satanist. The hype is much more shocking than the reality.
Actually, Fanatic-Templar, not even Satanists would commit such a crime as this. It's sick, vile, horrible and disgusting. They don't believe that ANY supernatural entity is worthy of worship, not even Satan. The left-hand path is more about BECOMING a deity than following one. Now, Satan-WORSHIPPERS -- well they're actually a pretty rare breed. Sick as all hell where they do exist, and that mostly for the shock value, but quite rare.
That said, Satanists actually do have a rather high moral code. Way higher than this turdfest of a person who calls themselves "Beatitude." They strive to become divine themselves. But they tend to operate on a more merit-based system than a lot of Christians do. They do good works for those who appreciate the help, rather than forcing it on those who do not want any. And, if they feel somebody is not deserving of whatever, they simply leave them alone to wallow in their own misery.
No, I'm not a Satanist. I merely dislike the misinformation people keep insisting on spreading about them. They're actually rather good people, by and large.
If I were a mother, I'm pretty sure I would be laying down MY OWN life FOR my child AGAINST God. Maybe for another person's child for that matter, judging from my experiences working at a day-care. Never underestimate the power of the maternal instinct.

As Carl Sagan observed, there are a number of passages in the Bible where children "lay down their life" for their parents (or more accurately, their father) -- but not one where parents lay down their lives to protect their children.
And fundamentalists claim that the Bible is the basis of all morality....sorry, I want nothing to do with that kind of "morality".
Actually, I know that, but I thought it would be considerably more amusing to use the Movie Satanist for reference. For the purpose of demonstrating that even the twisted caricatures provided by the imagination are less evil than Beatitude.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
If your willing to show your devotion so much? Why don't you lay down your OWN life in the name of God?
Sheesh, leave the kids out of it.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!
I will say that the best interpretation of that "beautiful" passage of the bible is that God was not testing Abraham - Abraham was testing God. If God had demanded Abraham go through with the sacrifice, there'd be a whole other God today.
Of course, that explanation assumes that God is real, but hey...
If God ever told my mom to sacrifice me, she would probably tell God to go fuck himself.
I trump God as far as my mom's love is concerned. And, to me, that's a beautiful thing.
Confused?
