Jealousy? Don't stop there when there's also wrath, vanity and pride.

That's 4 of the seven deadly sins in the perfect being. We can't say he doesn't suffer from the others too - just that Gluttony, Lust and whatever the fuck the other one is haven't been demonstrated.

Is the other one envy? If it is he's got that one too. That's 5 demonstrated in the Bible - which is the TRVTH apparently.

Humorless men.

You just don't understand! God is, well, perfect! That means that he can be anything he wants. Humorless? Sure. Jealous? You bet! Petty and vindictive? Yep! Unable to freely forgive without some bloody sham of a salvation plan? Check. Who are you to use the brain he gave you to actually think about things like this?

Now if you'll just shut off that God-given faculty of reason for a minute, you might finally see how it all really makes sense.

Now excuse me while I exercise my unicorn.

My wife actually said something similar to this to me before. Something along the lines of "You think about things too much."
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Mine hit me with "Well you just don't believe anything do you?"

She was reading her horoscope at the time.

I do not believe in horoscopes.

I know of no saved Christian that does.

I know numerous Christians who do believe in horoscopes.
