It's not just that, though.
The ill logics of biblical proportions that we point out don't seem to phase theists, because they are too caught up with their cognitive dissonances.
Apologetic arguments abound more than bunnies in a springtime meadow due to delusion overriding reality and reason.
A god that is supposedly OMNI can only seem to do that which a primitive human mind conceptualized. Which does not make the god a god at all, but merely a primitive human creation.
The only thing you ever manage to point out is the fact you are totally and utterly biblically ignorant. It's not us being dishonest with ourselves, we understand we are sinners and need the salvation God offers through Jesus, the dishonest ones are those who rebel against their creator.
There are reasons you see different things about God from people, we want to believe we each have things completely correct about God when we can't even begin to understand the complete God of creation and salvation He is. So to put it in a simple way so you might understand we try to fill in the blanks with our supposed knowledge of God and different interpretations come about. Most all Christians believe in how salvation comes to man and that we are to live to the best as we can a life that is a witness for Christ.
God is the creator not man and God in His omni-powers and through His grace understands man's weaknesses, it is why He wanted to give His life to save us.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
