Quote:What about 'em? I discuss and defend the god of the Bible. While you can find "God is love" in 1 John, you'll find a few other "god is..." statements in that letter, and more elsewhere, so no, Biblically, god isn't portrayed as all loving, or all any one thing.

Again, assuming the god of the bible is real and now that you admit that god can have negative attributes. Then why worship him?

Just because someone is more powerful than me, be it, socially, physically etc... it isn't ethical to be subservient to him. I wouldn't side with someone who sadistically murdered other beings out of jealousy and hate just because he has infinitely more power than me.
Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. -Alice
