By everybody's. Including his own.
Quote:Exactly! and because of this war crime it is possiable to deem God a war criminal, and if God is a war criminal then he is not worthy of being God correct?
He is not worthy to judge anybody else's actions. Whether a being is worthy of godhood has to do with certain qualifications such as ability, and the complete lack of evidence for a god on this score is another argument altogether.
Quote:Or can their be circumstances that would warrant the death of an entire people?
No.
Well, you certainly seem to think so, so of course you're going to provide examples straight out of the Bible, since there are plenty. Right?
Quote:What if a people brought a plague into being that wiped out all life? or was responsiable for destroying the line of Christ that would deny the salvation of man?
Or maybe you'll just invent scenarios that never occurred in the Bible nor are related to anything in it, to justify what it does say happened.
Quote:No they were kept to supply Israel with breeding stock.
Well, that makes up for everything.
Quote:why is there a difference? Because only an omniscient God can discern who/which people would contribute to how He wanted the course of History to unfold and who could potentialy bring the world to a premature end. a 'general' could not do this.
So, what you're admitting is that God enjoys death and misery and has intentionally set human history on a path which delivers a virtually endless supply of both. Thanks.
Quote:Who do you think Hitler got his inspiration from with the Jews?
Christianity, obviously.
Quote:God is simply presented. The title of blood thirsty was awarded by you when you choose to adopt the morality of your society over your God.
He is not simply presented. He is presented with obviously favorable and completely unjustifiable bias in the Bible from start to finish.
