Well first let me state that I am not Christian but this one seems pretty simple to me. What is the greatest sacrifice any parent can make? Why would God ask Abraham to kill himself to prove his faith? I mean there is a good idea, because he succeeds then he has proven himself but now he is dead. (And yes I am very aware of the whole "God could raise him from the dead" argument. I am talking more along the lines of Abrahams train of thought) But the main question is why would God, all knowing loving all caring just over all great guy, ask Abraham to do something that we see as so terribly wrong (and I would assume they still saw as wrong then too but less so)? Because it was a test. Thats all.
