Is God Altruistic? Is God Happy?

[Belacqua]

Scripture is clear that God has emotions. Otherwise you have to rule out His Love. 

I guess it depends on how we take scripture. 

The great Christian thinkers are pretty unanimous in saying that when they talk about God's love, they aren't talking about anything like an emotion or a passion. 

You are conflating Unchanging with unmoved by connotation at the least.

Not just me; I only know what I read. Augustine, Aquinas, et.al., are explicit that we use the words "love" and "anger" about God only analogously to human emotion. 

For them, reading the Bible in a "literal" way meant first identifying the genre of the chapter in question. Parable and analogy work differently than history.
