God: The Great Tempter

[Lek]

Seems that way, but it's worked rather well over time.

How do you figure?

Thousands of Christian sects, many involved in wars throughout history. All over competing interpretations of  texts supposedly provided by a god, that should have known of a better method to transmit his message.

The majority of humanity is not currently, and have not been Christian throughout history. Again, shouldn't this deity have been able to figure out a better method of transmitting his message? A method that would have been able to convince almost everyone on the planet?

I know I could have come up with a better method, and you could have too.

So instead, according to many Christian sects, we have a system, where the vast majority of all humanity that has ever existed, is going to be punished for eternity (or annihilated, according to others) , all because this deity had a poor method of communicating. 

Is that your idea of "working out rather well"? 

I guess since you have discovered the "truth", it has worked out rather well, for you. Not so much for those of us (the vast majority of humanity) that are destined for eternal punishment. 

Any being that created this system, does not deserve to be worshiped, even if it does actually exist.

It's been extremely successful, having started with a small band of ragtag disciples and has been growing ever since. It's the largest faith in the world and is still growing. God doesn't require that we all interpret the bible the same, but that we have faith in his son.
