We're talking about what is written about god, not what a theological filter and/or your filter interprets.
But I'm sure you know better than me.
Right. As I said at the beginning, this is a problem for people who take the Old Testament literally.
"What is written about god" includes a hell of a lot more than the Bible. It's important not to filter out the stuff that doesn't meet your preconceptions.
Yep, but thru a theological filter.
For the christian god exists people isn't the OT considered the word of god? Why shouldn't it be taken literal, unless god has a communication problem.
Still capricious. Your dodge attempt didn't work.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
