Okay, let's say God gave Elisha power to do as he saw fit. Now we have an irresponsible prophet who is utterly sadistic, and an evil god that lets his sadistic prophets run amok. You're still not convincing anyone with your apologetics, Drich.
"What is [there] to figure out" about the existence of god, you ask? Should we simply assume that Thor exists, or that the angel Moroni really spoke to Joseph Smith, or should ask for evidence to back up these claims? But since none of these things have been verified, including the existence of Yahweh, we are taking the null hypothesis that these stories are simply fictional. Threatening us with hellfire doesn't scare anyone into joining your cult because we assume it's likely nonexistent.
