The death on the cross for Jesus was necessary. It shows us how greatly God loves us...
Say what? Necessary?!?
God made the rules... he didn't have to make it necessary if he didn't want to... why murder your own son?
God could have waved his magic wand and forgiven sin without any need for bloodshed... necessary? ha!
God made animals. Mostly, they cannot think. If they can think, the best of them can only reason in very limited ways. When you act like you don't want the abilities of Godness, you are essentially saying that you would rather be an animal.
God isn't going to give us baby gods unlimited power and strength, just like you wouldn't give your 10-y-o kid the keys to your Rolls and say, "Have at it, kid."
Make your choice. Take your pick. Move into Godness with God the way He did it, or move into self-destruction. You have no other choice, no matter how you much grumble about it.
