Yeah well that story ended up becoming one of they key parts of the most successful religion of the world, so I think it was effective in the grand scheme of things. Perhaps the test wasnt for God...or for anyone involved in the story for that matter.

So, psychological torture for the sake of publicity?  Purely unnecessary publicity, since an omnipotent god would by definition be able to spread his religion in any number of other ways.  Dick move if you ask me.

Are you suggesting he use his omnipotent power to force people to accept his religion? Im just trying to point out that the Bible is the most widely circulated text in the history of the world, so perhaps if the christian god is real, he mustve done a pretty good job with his instruction manual. Im not really trying to argue the merits of the story or Isaac, more the results.
