Atheists are mentally ill

It only matters so much to me. My existence is but the tiniest blip against the timespan of the cosmos. Even if your God did exist, it wouldn't affect my life. I still wouldn't worship a being whose own scriptures depict him as a vile, murderous monster (even if it describes him directly in the opposite manner).

It would effect your existence somewhat if God does exist, and it wouldn't just be my God he would be your God as well.

But god doesn't exist.

Jesus Christ was not a murderous monster I'm not sure where you're getting that idea.

He had the ability to heal everyone but he didn't. How is he not a murdering monster? He only healed some to prove his point. He also did not bother to visit anyone in other parts of the world at all, dooming them to hell.

The Old Testament may have had an imperfect view of Gods Moral Justice/Law but even there you see portrayals God as a compassionate being who loved his people and saw his creation as "good", who demanded the Jews treat the aliens in their land with respect as they themselves were once aliens in the land of Egypt. There is an emphasis on the equality of man no matter what your race, nation or ethnicity. This was very much stressed by Jesus himself of course.

I doubt you actually read the OT if you think god promoted equality. And I don't worship anything that's good enough. Anything that's worthy of worship would not require worship and would be perfect.

Please keep in mind that all these are only an issue if your god exists, he doesn't.

Wishful thinking. A psychological inability to accept reality. Nothing more.

It's only wishful thinking if you don't really believe it or think it is a rational view to hold in light of the evidence. God/the Bible/Christ gives you a clearer understanding of the true nature of reality and human life as it really is. If it's wrong it's a delusion but atheism would be a delusion if that's wrong. Someone will have to be wrong of course.

Someone has to be wrong. You are.

Wishful thinking is believing in something that isn't in line with reality, that's what you're doing. Opinions don't change facts.
