If trying to understand God by Bible standards does not make sense to you, then there is a misunderstanding somewhere. God did not give us thinking minds to see these things, and then expect us not to make reasonable decisions about the difficulties. There is information lacking that makes all of these things clear. If there is a truth to God, it has to be clear and understandable to all of those involved. I get flack from Christians all of the time when I question the lack of sensibility of some of scripture. I know that we will be judged by what we understand, not something which can make no sense to us yet. My relationship with God is not based on what I read and can not understand, but with what I can. I feel that your questions and observations are valid. God understands reason and doubt. I know it is hard to believe in God the way He is portrayed in some parts of scripture. I don't blame you for your doubt or anger. I don't think that God does either. He just wants a loving relationship with us, and with that we will understand more.
