Murdering your own child is quite different to me than an adult son deciding to go and fight in a war. And where in the vague notion of democracy are parents required to build altars and sacrifice their children?The survival of the child was assured? Do you suppose that Isaac knew that when he finally realized what his father intended to do to him? We call that child abuse and put people in prison for it. Can you imagine yourself in court presenting that story? A disembodied voice told you to sacrifice your son, but relented at the last moment when you already had him bound on the altar and had the knife raised to his throat? You would be convicted by any jury anywhere.
