God is a Mass Murderer

God is a Mass Murderer
More murders have been committed in the holy name of God than for any other reason. (Well, children do tend to emulate their parents, so I guess that’s not too surprising.) God has variously commanded death to those who believe differently, (Exodus 22:19) those who have sex outside of marriage, (Leviticus 20:10/Leviticus 21:9) those who work on the Sabbath, (Exodus 31:12-15) homosexuals, (Romans 1:24-32) people who curse their parents, (Leviticus 20:9) and children who make fun of men who require Rogaine. (2 Kings 2:23-24) And that’s just for starters.

Do you believe this just because it's written in the Bible? 

You realize that book isn't true, right? There's no reason to believe that any God has ever commanded any murder.

Not sure why the creator of all that there is would need to employee the abilities of an upright ape for anything at all.

Is it any wonder that "god" is a cunt?


When you consider that the person who invented this fictional character was a cunt intent on tricking his neighbors into doing his bidding - is it any surprise?

This is why it's silly to blame God for anything. 

There is no reason at all to believe that a God has ever employed people to do anything.

And if we can't blame God for murders, then we have to look for other causes. The vast majority of organized killing in the world has been done for power, and especially the control of resources. 

This continues in our own time, funded by our tax money, justified with (usually) non-religious ideology.

Most of US know that the bible, the koran, and pretty much all "holy" books were invented abd written by humans.

Unfirtubately there is a HUGE section of the population who take it as the literal word of their deity (usually picking and choosing which sections should apply) and then acting on, or at least supporting those who do act on, the texts of the book.

I have read statements from Christians who have said they would "sacrifice" (murder) their kids if they believe god told them to.

So random voice in the head and so long, kiddies.

Right. It's a book written by people, used by people, to justify violence by people.

The trouble is people.

god here = the superstitious being or the superstitious killer in the religious scripts.
the point i’m making is that the bible(and many other “religious” texts,) cannot be relied on to reveal what or who god is or how god wishes for us to conduct ourselves if we take its words at literal face value.
