If so, they skipped over a lot, like a good bit of Psalms.
Psalms is loaded with hateful verses.
Psalms 2:12 (NLT) = "Submit to God’s royal son, or he will become angry,
and you will be destroyed in the midst of all your activities—
for his anger flares up in an instant.
But what joy for all who take refuge in him!"
IOW, kiss the homicidal maniac's butt or he will kill you.

God does what god wants, and that includes seizures. That sinner probably shook it one too many times after he took a piss.
The seizure and the car crash, just the beginning. That's nothing compared to the eternity he'll spend in hell.
According to the Babylonian Tamud, Tractate Niddah, Folio 13A Chapter 2, If a guy holds his penis while urinating it's like he flooded the entire world. So yes, he is a sinner if he shakes it. And if you get any piss on your feet you are wicked and your children are illegitimate. God is a real meanie.
"[Reverting to] the main text: 'R. Eliezer said, Whoever holds his membrum when he makes water is as though he had brought a flood on the world'. But, they said to R. Eliezer, would not the spray bespatter his feet and he would appear to be maimed in his privy parts so that he25 would be the cause of casting upon his children the reflection of being illegitimate? — It is preferable, he answered them, that a man should be the cause of casting upon his children the reflection of being illegitimate than that he should make himself a wicked man, even for a while, before the Omnipresent. Another [Baraitha] taught: R. Eliezer replied to the Sages. It is possible for a man to stand on a raised spot and to make water or to make water in loose earth and thus to avoid making himself wicked, even for a while, before the Omnipresent."
