I know he's not perfect by my definition, since I don't agree with some things he's done or said. Most people don't agree with everything he's done or said, because most people in America believe that slavery, genocide, and rape is wrong. Their best defense is to just have faith that it was better in the long run, but I don't have that kind of faith. I would need to have a serious talk with him about this, and if he pulls the kind of beating around the bush that he did with Job, saying I wasn't there when he made the world, I'd tell him to cut the bullshit and explain why he let current human culture determine what he felt was right and wrong.
He's not really better than any other deity at the time, except the ancient greeks didn't try to tell us that the olympic gods were perfect. They knew they were assholes, but since the greek gods were more powerful, there wasn't much they could do about it. I guess you could say the same about Yahweh, but I'm not about to worship a being that I don't like unless he shows himself to me as he showed himself to people in the old testament.
