How can a perfect God be these things? don't these negative emotion mean He is not perfect? No. Then why is it wrong for us to display these emotions. In short these emotions are reserved for God. They are reserved for one who can rightly and with out question or doubt discern who is righteous and who is not. the reason it is wrong for us to display these emotions, is because we do so out of a sense of selfrighteousness, and not out of a sense of absolute righteousness."
So basically - God is perfect, God bashes babies heads against the wall for the crimes of their parents - therefore that's OK - but it wouldn't be OK for anyone else to do it.
And God gets angry, seeks vengeance, is wrathful and isn't sorrowful or apologetic - you could add proud and vain to get a majority of the 7 deadly sins - enough to convict anyone else - but God is perfect and therefore its OK but it wouldn't be for anyone else.
And you wonder why we don't get it?hock:
Oh, I get it. You all feel that your 'morality' somehow trumps God's morality/righteousness.
Therefore God is not worthy of worship.
Close?
look at that - he can be taught
Whats even better is that you actually think that admitting your god has some unexplainable immunity to being labeled an immoral being will somehow satiate those who call him out on his atrocities.
If there was ANYONE on this site who was teetering on the edge of accepting your bogus messiah, you've definitely put an end to that.
You should be glad Jesus isn't real, he'd be pissed as fuck at you by now.
