But why does it value sacrifice? Also, why did he need to sacrifice himself if hes omni-potent? Couldn't he have just said "OK, all your sins are forgiven, you can come on up now". Anyway, he/Jesus sacrificed himself to absolve original sin (the whole tree of knowledge thing), a concept that makes no sense whatsoever. Why punish us for something our supposed ancestors did thousands of years ago?
