Why do you think god demands blood sacrifices and burnt offerings? [Spirituality & Religion]
Why does he want the blood splattered on the altar and the fat from around the organs and the large lobe of the liver and kidneys burnt?

Sacrifices and burnt offerings are cross-cultural; religions all around the world have versions of these. I think it's a universal human idea that deities need to be placated and satisfied with offerings and sacrifices. Humans have to give something up to get what they want from a higher power.

I do think it makes sense as a general cultural practice rather than a rational demand from a superbeing.
