God's God

[Ryantology]

From that we can start to wonder, in what sense is God jealous. It seems clear to me that God is protective of something He values highly, the nation of Israel. Now we can reflect on the nature of Providence as it applies today.

God's OT personality is entirely indistinguishable from real psychopathic mass-murdering egomaniacs such as Hitler. Vastly more likely is that God suffers from the most monumental case of narcissism imaginable, as in no sense of the word 'caring' does God care about anything except getting his due from his followers. God is jealous because apparently being omnipotent and omniscient just isn't any fun unless you're extorting 'love' out of the little people you make (and frequently break).

His NT personality is a lot more subdued, hardly seems like the same deity at all. The NT God is willing to forgo the psychotic rages against those who don't willingly wear his shackles, he'll wait until they're dead and just torture them forever for the crime of reason. He must have learned self-control in the intervening period, if not anything resembling the good qualities he is alleged to have bestowed upon us.
