2- you are using emotive language, and unnecessary adjectives to strengthen your point which could be simply put "I think God is stupid" And then you take that obvious chip on your shoulder and chuck it at me constantly. I don't think I'm going to address this point anymore either.
3-Wrong. How many times have I said that perception precedes defintion, which precedes acknowledgement of existence, which precedes understanding. I think I'm done with this point too.

"Thou shalt not steal." 20:15
"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour." 20:16
Be kind to strangers, widows, and fatherless children. 22:21-22
Value the truth; don't lie. 23:1
Don't do what everyone else does, if what they do is wrong. 23:2
Be kind to your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. 23:4-5
Treat the poor fairly. 23:6
Be honest. Don't kill the innocent. 23:7
Don't mistreat strangers. 23:9
Every seventh year the Israelites were to leave their fields unharvested, so that the poor would have something to eat. 23:11

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
