His take is distorted? Jesus, who is also God (thus his own father), "sacrificed" himself to appease...himself (in the form of God, who Jesus also is). That isn't distorted?

I put sacrifice in quotes because it wasn't much of a sacrifice. If a human dies in order to save someone else, that's a sacrifice. He has no knowledge of what comes after death, thus giving up whatever time he might have had to be sentient. Jesus would have known what was going to happen, being a former celestial being himself. He knew his existence would continue. It wasn't a sacrifice. It was a minor inconvenience to an omnipotent being.

Have you seen in the movie or read in the bible what they did to him? it wasnt a simple death as it would be in these times. he didnt have the convenience of the electric chair or the lethal injection. He was beaten, whipped till his back was bleeding, he had a crown of thorns shoved deep into his skull, he was kicked around, forced to carry a cross alone half the way, and with the help of another (still doing his best to help carry it, though) the rest of the way. He then had nails driven through his hands and feet, and was hung up on a cross where he remained for a while. He then died, was placed in a tomb, and remained in limbo for 3 days. Only then did he get his afterlife.

It wasnt to appease himself, but to appease the laws of nature. I'm sure we know very very little about how sin works, since it's not a material thing; perhaps it required a holy sacrifice to be forgivable.
