In other words, you only hold God to human standards when it's convenient for you to think of him as merciful, just, good, etc. But when, without impunity, he's depicted as a murderous, racist, homophobic piece of shit, well, who can really say for sure?
Oh no, not at all, I didn't mean to communicate that. Just that Jesus WAS Human, therefore I can appropriately subject him to human standards. But God is not human, he is a far from human, and human standards and thought wouldn't be applicable without the aspects of being a human being.
