First things first. Your "Username" is as bogus as the day you were born. For all I know, you created it just to spam this site. Since "666" is obvious code for Satan or, more specifically his minion, the man of sin, it can truly be said that one bearing that number is "out of time". I doubt if you would wish that upon yourself.

Now to the point of your post, let's get a few points out of the way. An eternity in hell is not the penalty for sin. Hades and its Hebrew equivalent Sheol are most generally the abode of the dead. The penalty for sin is death, the consequence of being a born sinner. I would advice that you read the Epistle to the Romans, especially the first half, to get a fuller idea of what salvation really means.

Your analogy is quite lame. It equates a sinner's life to a misdemeanor and the "fine" he lays out as out of proportion to the "crime". It is clear that you have not read the Bible, for there are parables there that lay out far better analogies. If you are serious about this "question", perhaps you might read the Gospel of Matthew or one of the other gospels. Most Bibles have headings to help you find these practical stories relating real life with spiritual things.

To answer your concluding "Question"--No. You are not able to save anybody, because you are not the sinless Son of God. Even if you were an innocent, faultless human being, you could only pay the penalty for one other person. You may think you are a "good guy", but this is not a game.

Thank you for your time. Now, read the Bible and get back with us when you know what you are talking about.
