If one must count on one's self and nobody else, why have faith in him at all in this life or the next? You have a useless God.

Quote:don't be literal to the point of stupidy, and God never condones human sacrifice.You were the one being literal-minded about God's omnipresence, and WHAT does human sacrifice have anything to do with every first-born son in Egypt being murdered by a monstrous deity who demands human service and sacrifice anyway?
Quote:Ezekiel 20:26 I let them become defiled through their gifts--the sacrifice of every firstborn --that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the LORD.
If you're going to worship a monster god, at least have the decency to admit its an evil malevolent being you hold in adoration.
