If God wanted to forgive our sins, why not just forgive them, without having himself tortured and executed in payment - thereby, incidentally, condemning remote future generations of Jews to pogroms and persecution as ‘Christ-Killers’: did that hereditary sin pass down in the semen too?
Just thought I'd add that, while certainly not mainstream, there are some forms of Christianity which espouse a view broadly known as "Christian Universalism." These Christians teach that God actually forgave the sins of all human beings (whether they believe in Jesus or not) and that no one will go to Hell, because of what God has done.

Just thought I'd throw it out there, since I like throwing wrenches into generalizations. Hehe.
