Finer minds than yours have tried to gloss over the shit in your bible. They have failed. You had no chance.If someone takes a message out of context or applies the bible in the wrong context then any defense or attention drawn to the error is considered an apologetic.
As far as being typical, why didn't Bart address these 'typical responses' if they were indeed 'typical? Why did he only address the crazy, way out there answers that rewrite the cannon of scripture? Is he being foolish or just trying to sell books to people like you? Or maybe these answers are not the typical fair he is use to seeing.

John 3:16 underscores this point, in that God so loved the world that He gave his only Son that who so ever Believes.... Did you see it That Who so Ever believes, is a condition. Which makes God's love conditional. Which breaks your whole argument in half.
My argument is that it is repulsive. Repeating an example of what makes it repulsive doesn't exactly have much of a negative effect on what I said.
I'm sure inmates who have been sentenced to life think the judge who put them there is repulsive as well, but there they sit in prison anyway.
Who cares what they think because they have shown themselves not willing to be apart of society. Same thing here if you do not wish to be apart of God's society, so what. Anyone not looking to be apart of God's society will be separated from it.
