Claiming god is perfect

[John V]

People back then probably thought that this was the absolute best thing to do. My god is better than your god, so you'd better do what my god says. In fact, it's the worst thing they could have done. Claiming he's perfect, all knowing, all present, and such actually demands that he be held to a higher standard than anything else. It means we can't cut him any slack for things we disagree with in the bible.

No, it means that we can't cut ourselves any slack for things we disagree with.
