God doesn't follow the Golden Rule

[Chad32]

I really feel sorry for both of you, people with that much hate... well you'll have understanding one of these days.

Oh, I don't really have much hate. Mostly because I don't think he exists. I mean I get riled up by fictional characters sometimes. There's this guy named Lheu Brenin in Lord of the Rings Online that really ticked me off when he asked me to go around helping people against Saruman, and when I came back and he found out Saruman was currently winning, he turned on me. I didn't even get the opportunity to defeat him.

But he's just a character in a video game. I don't stew in any hatred for the guy. Same way with Yahweh. If he was real, I'd hate him because he's a narcissistic psychopath that lies about caring for his creation when it should be obvious looking from the outside that he only cares about himself. Still, there's no evidence that he exists, so I don't stress too much. I just go on these tangents because I feel like it's a sham and detrimental to our species.

If you really insist on worshiping a deity, I'd say pick a more pleasant one. Or at least stop saying Yahweh is perfectly good, just, merciful, and loving, because judging from his actions he just isn't. Maybe he's got some good lessons and ideas, and that's fine, but the guy has issues.
