My understanding is that humans have free will, so God didn't "require" his son to be tortured and killed. We coulda just not tortured and killed Jesus. But also, Jesus was such a cool dude he decided to absorb all of our evilness and die for it. But then God brought Jesus back because duh, he's omnipotent, he's not gonna let his son stay dead.
Now I kinda want to ask some hardcore Christians, hey, what woulda happened if the Romans didn't kill Jesus? Like what if they'd just left him alone and Jesus died at an old age peacefully in his own bed?
Eh, they'd probably say I'm going to Hell for asking questions like that.
