Is not the bible a fitting 'history' for any of these people?

Anyone have some better substitutions?

Have you ever read the New Testament (or actually any significant portion of any of the "Bible")? Perhaps you should before making such stupid statements. Even if you don't believe God exists, this can't be the start of a serious discussion.

He's speaking of the OT where your god is a murderous prick.

RE: What if the bible were rewritten?
So, you have decided that God did not have morally sufficient reasons for his actions. Why wouldn't uncaused creator of the universe, who in his nature, defines good, has the benefit of seeing every possible action of every possible person from the beginning to the end of time, have sufficient cause to act as he sees fit. Oh, wait, he doesn't exists. You can't have it both ways, either he exists as I have described and therefore has sufficient reasons for his actions, or he does not and did not "murder". There is no argument against God here.

Wrong, stupid. Even though your imaginary friend does not exist - gullible morons like you murdered a whole lot of people in his name. Also - even fictional characters can be evil pricks. Darth Vader was evil, but also completely made-up.

I get a kick out of people like you in this forum: insulting and ignorant. Can't piece together a sentence that is not filled with either insults or misconception (in your case both). Congrats.
