Evil is terrible and deserves to be hated. I don't wish evil on anyone. There is righteous killing though; such as, during a just war, in self-defense, or when justly hunting animals to eat. That is not evil. Murder is evil though. God hates murder, rape, adultery, disrespect to parents,...
See, this is exactly what I mean. Adultery and disrespect to parents is not the same as murder and rape. But your god still hates it, and so too do his followers. The hateful god that you are depicting is very different from an understanding god that one would expect a loving god to be.
I am entirely in agreement with Abaddon here. You are one sick individual.
The god you worship is actually a projected image of your own hatred.
No, they are not the same. Some sins are worse than others but they are all still sins. He does hate sin and we are to hate sin as well. The action of sin. He will forgive those sins if you turn to Him and repent asking forgiveness and turning away from those sins. He will even forgive you when you stumble and fall again. He is a very loving and forgiving Lord.
