So you're saying Jesus was a smart ass? Nothing against Min cause I'd put more stock in someone with logic who actually exists than your fiction. Your using children to disprove the sarcasm= immaturity arguement? Nice one. I'm sure Min didn't really wish death upon you but how can you tell me that the savoir of the world who is and was and ever shall be is going to speak to people in that way. Wouldn't he know that those words would cause much debate and people to deconvert? But I guess you can't expect much more from a god who orders grown men to slaughter innocent women and children. Unlike you, I can admit when I'm wrong... so don't pull that bare assertion stuff with me.

Why even threaten people with a global flood?[/quote]
Because the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Quote:You say he waited decades for the ark but he was already committing to the flood. That's like a father threatening a child with a severe nose breaking beating but allows him some time to prepare for it.
No, it's like a judge giving criminals decades to repent. God doesn't claim fatherhood to all of man.
Quote:So the part where those psalms mention a loving god is null and void once you read the rest of it and see the atrocities he had committed.

[/quote]
If you told me a neighbor of yours was a nice and kind man then proceeded to tell me he was a judge who routinely handed out punishment to criminals, I wouldn't see a contradiction. How come you cannot see that with my god?
[/quote]

OBJECTION!! my neighber isnt claiming to be all loving and caring beyound everyone else. Add to that judges are bound by laws. God behaves like dictator.i know people who are more loving and WAY less judgemental than your imaginary god.

Neither does god claim to be all loving.

You know people who are far less righteous than god. Lowering the standard to a point that you can meet yourself isn't a display of love, it's self-serving.

What about all those Christians who say "God is love?"
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Objection!!! The bible states god is love.

The people i know are 1000 times more rightous than your god,because righteous people dont torture people for enternity because they dont love him back.

Having an absurd standard for others but not yourself is disgusting. Like your god

ROFLOL

You are hilariously delusional. Most if not ALL people in history are technically BETTER than god. Because even the most downright rotten murderers only did so much damage. And people are not supposed to be all powerful or the supreme being of the universe. god claims that yet he has done the MOST heinous things THE MOST frequently. There is no reason why any rational person would still defend him and worship EVEN if he was real unless they were delusional or they are weak enough to accept such an evil god.
Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. -Alice

What about 'em? I discuss and defend the god of the Bible. While you can find "God is love" in 1 John, you'll find a few other "god is..." statements in that letter, and more elsewhere, so no, Biblically, god isn't portrayed as all loving, or all any one thing.

Apparently you are the posterchild for your religion since even you admit Jesus is a sarcastic smart ass. That's why your childish comment is in my signature. I guess you gave up on our discussion, eh? It's ok, keep living in your delusional fairy tale
