The apostle’s creed shows that Christianity is based on having to embrace barbaric human sacrifice and the notion that the guilty should be forgiven if a suitable human sacrifice is made to God.
I suggest that having another innocent person suffer for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral. Immoral regardless of the victim volunteering or not which is not the case with Jesus.
That is one of many moral tenets that have cause secular governments to reject Judeo-Christian culture and values.

The bible is a compilation of evil acts by a satanic God and no moral man would every push to have Judeo-Christian culture and values implemented as our law. The U.S. is the closes to that ideal and their jail statistics are the most dismal in the free world.
Would you promote Judeo-Christian culture and values?

I'm not sure how much you've read the Bible, but Jesus did volunteer. "No one takes my life, I lat it down by my own free choice." (That's a scripture, John 10:18.) Jesus is more like the Coast Guard (making choices to help people) than a whipping boy. And I can't imagine that if the Coast Guard are good people for risking their butts to save someone else, that Jesus dying is somehow immoral if the whole idea is that he was the only guy in the whole universe who could save humanity from their own self-inflicted demise.
I did not need your example to recognize that to die for another can be quite a good thing.
But following your story above, for the analogy to be complete you would have to have the captain of the Coast Guard needlessly put his man in danger the way God did with Jesus and then have captain kill his own man.
God could have forgiven mankind in a moral way instead of demanding a human sacrifice.
For you to try to profit from that idiocy is quite immoral.
Here is a better analogy than your.
Learn the moral lesson or don't bother coming back.
Human sacrifice is evil and your God demanding one and accepting one is evil.
You trying to profit from that evil is evil. Do just a bit of thinking and you will agree.
Imagine you have two children. One of your children does something wrong – say it curses, or throws a temper tantrum, or something like that. In fact, say it does this on a regular basis, and you continually forgive your child, but it never seems to change.
Now suppose one day you’ve had enough, you need to do something different. You still wish to forgive your child, but nothing has worked. Do you go to your second child, your good child, and punish it to atone for the sins of the first?
In fact, if you ever saw a parent on the street punish one of their children for the actions of their other child, how would you react? Would you support their decision, or would you be offended? Because God punished Jesus -- his good child -- for the sins of his other children.
Interestingly, some historical royal families would beat their slaves when their own children did wrong – you should not, after all, ever beat a prince. The question is: what kind of lesson does that teach the child who actually did the harm? Does it teach them to be a better person, to stop doing harm, or does it teach them both that they won't themselves be punished, and also that punishing other people is normal? I know that's not a lesson I would want to teach my children, and I suspect it's not a lesson most Christians would want to teach theirs. So why does God?
For me, that’s at least one significant reason I find Jesus’ atonement of our sin to be morally repugnant – of course, that’s assuming Jesus ever existed; that original sin actually exists; that God actually exists; etc.
Having another innocent person suffer for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral.
Do you agree?

Religion has no place in politics.
We cannot question God or punish him for wrongdoing and we should always be able to question and punish those who lead us.

You will try anything to keep your blood stained free pass into hell.

You might wonder why God always seems to kill when he could cure and why you always want him to kill.

Note how much is fathomed of a God your religion says is unfathomable.
Religions are based on the lies of men.

Britain, as a nation, was founded on Christian values whether you like it or not.
These should be embraced, rather than welcoming the evil of multiculturalism.
