Would You Kill Your Only Child as a Sacrifice, If Asked By Your God? by NoContract(m): 9:16am On Oct 04, 2014 |
Ok, so I was going through wiki for the significance of the Eid el-Kabir and here's what I found: Significance -Commemoration of Ibrahim (Abraham)'s willingness to sacrifice his young first-born and only son in obedience of a command from God -Marks the end of the annual Hajj to Mecca. Now, I would like to ask every Christian and Moslem on Nairaland, or whoever believes or think the (attempt to) sacrifice Isaac (Isiak) in the holy books was ethical: Would you kill/sacrifice your only child, if asked by your God, without no idea if it's a test or not? Yes or no? Do you consider your answer morally acceptable (within the confines of religion or lack-of)? Constructive criticism please.

Another dumb question in nairaland. People do stupid shit in the name of religion. Why would I kill my child for a God that don't exist? 2 Likes |

bigiyaro: Abraham did not 'see' God. He only heard 'voices' I think. |

My own God has commanded me. Thou shalt not kill when abraham was taking isaac to d altar,he knew God will never let him kill his child and if he killed is child,he would provide another one for him, THIS IS THE BEST DEFINITION OF FAITH 1corinthians 1:18, for the message of the cross is to them that perish foolishness,but unto us which are saved,it is the power of God |

Which God? There's many Gods in this universe and dimension. A good God wouldn't pressure or toy hueman into evil acts. Creators only watch and wait. Throw different tasks for the spirits of the universe to become stronger. |

mesoade:Hmm. So if your father walks into your room one day with a knife and tells you God has commanded him to slaughter you, but not to worry, after all God will surely provide him with another son, this will console you? That's great, as for me I'll suggest he should stick that knife up his rectum. So NO, I'll certainly do no such thing, and if an angel shows up to do it for me, I may just have to execute the final move of the Batoussai ![]() |
