Isnt God kind of childish/egotistical?

[TheDarkestOfAngels]

Yes I have read my Bible.
The story of Jericho is fascinating, isnt it? An entire city/town falling because people they yelled and then they killed everyone except the people found in Rahabs house. I find this story morally distasteful, I dont worship a god like that.

Unless there's a second Christian god I don't know about, then yes, that is the god you worship.
I think one of the failings of Christianity is that they consider their god to be a loving god because he murdered his only son. Twice. Because humans are filthy, dirty sinners.

You know, if a woman covered in bruises approached me and told me that the husband she loves really truely loves her once he murdered her son for all of her sins, then I would tell her to seek psychiatric help and get her husband arrested.
That's the logic I see in worshipping the god of the bible.

So I think the main two theories one should either stick too would be:

That's fine, but now you're just picking and choosing which parts of the bible to believe and which not to believe in the very book that's supposed to be the word of god. Even so, you're simply basing his character on the parts of the bible you like and not the parts you don't like. I contend that you have to stretch the logic simply to get him palatable for love (like in my example above.)
