I want from you as the topic title wants you to explain: how can you worship such mass murderer and overall immoral monster? But it seems you can't and now you're calling "fake news" and "fake Bibles".

Then explain it to me in your scholarly way why is god murdering everybody and commanding people to rape women. This makes you look like you can't and that you're angry at me and trying to attack me ad hominem, like you don't have any arguments and even going so desperate to say I invented those verses. I mean you are dishonest liar and not me.
But the truth is that Christians are very well aware that their god is angry asshole, I mean just look at some hymns like "In Christ Alone" which contains the line "Till on that cross as Jesus died / The wrath of God was satisfied." Indeed that line bothers kind and peaceful people to think they might be worshiping a god of wrath that in 2013 Presbyterian Church in the United States came under criticism when it dropped the song from its hymnbook. It embarrasses them to think the plan of salvation reduces to appeasing the demanding anger of a hot-tempered father.
It sounds like you've never had a positive view of the Bible.
A lot of people don't, and there are a few reasons for that, the main one being that they have no connection with God through a knowledge of the Bible, and prayer.
The great controversy between good and evil began in heaven and has continued on earth. It started by Satan misrepresenting God, and he has succeeded in taking the human race down the same track. It doesn't matter what God does, he will be misrepresented.
You can read the details in the book "Patriarchs and Prophets" by (the well slandered) Ellen White. You will find that when God did not punish Satan in the beginning, that Satan told the angels that the silence (patience) of God was due to the fact that God was being exposed, and that he had no answer to the charges of the rebellion.
But over a long period of time, the enemy finally made open/physical war, it was then that he was driven out of heaven.
The issue on earth is again the misrepresentation of God's character. His name is worse than mud. And please know, that the religions of the world are owned and controlled by Satan, yes, Christian churches, pagan religions alike. The real God might as well be dead, because he certainly is not worshiped by the world.
The religions have made themselves the self appointed gateways or agents for heaven, while the rights of men to be connected to God is denied through false ideas, and the hierachy of men.
Despite all appearances God has people all over the world, few in number, who love and honor him, the rest are his enemies, they don't like to retain God in their minds, and prefer philosophy, their own ideas and some sort of image.
I apologize for ranting.

You are quite right, every war, every attrocity in the world since day one, has had a spiritual or religious backbone. And that includes what we typically view as a political/secular wars, such as WWI and II. There are specific religious organisations behind all wars.

Okay. Without religion.
Oh I see what you mean, you want us to pretend that the world is being run by a God, and you want us to suggest how he could up his game?
How would you implement an order against all religion? As a government, or as God if you like?
Commnism has already done that...hasn't it?
Would anyone like to live in North Korea?
