This omnipotent, omniscient god sets Adam up to sin by eating the forbidden fruit. Then god feels so hurt that he demands the death of every human being thereafter. It's not about all our individual sins, since we are supposed to have been born in sin and none of asked to be born. None of us asked to be trapped in a body that craves sex.
Why should god feel hurt when he set the whole thing up unless he is a masochist who gets off on hurt?
There you go again creating a straw man again. Nowhere does anyone believe that God's feeling were "hurt" by our actions and that is what precipitated the the punishment. Making up the other side's positions and then bashing it is not dialog.
Have you ever stopped to think that maybe the reason you Christians keep tumbling over each other stepping on each other's feet is because your story is fucked up in the first place and makes no sense when it's all put together?
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.
