One way to interpret that dichotomy is that the Catholic Church is living up to their belief that humans cannot do what god does. While god’s ineffable wisdom allows them to sacrifice an innocent for the good of humanity, humans’ imperfect understanding means they cannot do the same.
It still raises the question why God arranged the paradigm just so he'd have to have to sacrifice an innocent for the good of humanity in the first place. This practically admits He's not so omniscient / omnipotent or that He's not benevolent to humankind, certainly not all of humankind.
I mean, the biggest proof is him changing his mind and promising he will no longer be a dick towards people (at least not directly).
Also, destroying the world because it saddens you how people turned out, when you know everything (including how people will turn out) is just dumb storytelling.
But at least I have a concise guide on how to deal with slaves. And when I get horny, I can read that bit about the prostitute sleeping with men with donkey-sized dicks. Or the two chicks raping their dad, that's a fun one.
