I have read the bible, and this "he's a parent" crap is absolute bull.
I don't have to be a parent to know that one does not state, "behave my child, or I'll set you on fire." That's what god is saying.
Oh, he's a "supernatural" parent, this god you so revere?
Well, first prove to me this god exists, and then you can emulate him by burning your children as he does.
Oh, "his ways are above our understanding."
That is fucking bullshit. If you're advocating for the evil that god does, while pretending that he's good, then you are the problem.
Not as great as this thread, I admit.
First of all God doesn't say He will burn His children, so I'm doubtful you read the Bible and tried to understand what was being said.
Second God is the creator of the universe and there is no way you can begin to understand a being with such great power.
Third this is a bad post because it's the same ol' junk atheist spout all the time.

As opposed to the same junk believer's spout? "Just believe", "I KNOW it's true", "All these believers can't be wrong".
It can be boiled down to a single argument: Take my word for it. A con-man's phrase.
