This video is a Godless Comedy created by That Mitchell and Webb Look about the myth of Abraham and Isaac .. if an American did this today, he'd be placed in a mental institution for hearing voices that command him to murder his own son. Charming.

The story of God "testing" Abraham's faith always makes me think that Abraham missed a perfect opportunity to tell God to go screw himself. [Link]
Brilliant! What gets me about this sketch is how sympathetic god is. He seems unsure of himself and a little puzzled as to why Abraham would so readily agree to his outlandish schemes. I wonder if all dictators start out this way?
