Now, kill every male-child as well as every woman who has had sex with a man. But, the young girls who have not had sex with a man, you may keep alive for yourselves.(February 21, 2016 at 9:46 pm)Wyrd of Gawd Wrote: Who pays the penalty when God succumbs to our temptations?
God doesn't succumb to our temptations. In reality God kills us all. We all die; and that's according to his will. Dying in itself isn't evil, but it does come as a result of our sins. It is evil, though, for us to disobey God's will and to commit murder. Of course, if we truly loved our neighbors as Jesus told us to do, we wouldn't commit murder.

They disobeyed god’s commandment to kill women and boys. How wicked of them. And Yahweh is so gracious that he didn’t require them to martyrdom to get their 7 virgins. Don’t you just love this god?
If it's evil to disobey god, then I'll just have to be evil.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
