John 3:16. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son ... "

The entire premise that there is some great "loss" to the all-powerful creator of the universe, one that binds people to "owe" him or otherwise pay the price, is simply insane. Yet I understand it is the most quoted Biblical phrase. Who knew he was such a bean-counter? It conjures up those pagan gods always looking for human sacrifices to throw into the fire pit.

As Hume pointed out (thru a dialog character), "It is an absurdity to believe that the Deity has human passions, and one of the lowest of human passions, a restless appetite for applause”
