Is God made up?
Is Religion degrading society?
Did you miss the part I just stated, right after your blue font?
How can I have a guilty conscience about not following the commands of a being whose entire persona and whose commands I find morally repugnant. They are morally beneath the dignity of reasoning, educated, and decent human beings. Your God is not just made up, he is a monster created by a barbaric people.
You have already demonstrated that you believe Hell is the destination for those who don't believe your Bronze Age fable. This alone is sufficient reason for me to reject your God as a barbaric monster. To posit that it is not enough to just let me die like every other mammal on the planet, but that I must be tortured for all eternity for my disobedience, places your deity into the moral category of a rapist, demanding submissive obedience under threat of the worst type of violence I could even conceive to describe.
Why can't I accept God's commands?
Is God evil?
Why does God send a person to hell?
Is God demanding submission of me?
Why is hell eternal?
Am I just like any other animal?
