Don't be so bloody arrogant.
Actually this is the best anti-faith argument I have heard yet here. Quite seriously, it's a good question. There does seem to be a lot of narcissism in the church, not to mention your favorite local bar.
Yes....people just being people

Because I am not a slave and neither are you?? And hypothetically if this god is so great he can make his own requests and not use inferior tools to do his dirty work ??

Maybe Christians are indeed "base" as you guys claim, and what are you going to do if you find out he loves them all? Honestly, will you repent of your sins and serve Jesus? No? Why not?
Sorry?? what "crime" have I committed to have to "repent" and seek forgiveness for?? And again you talk of servetued...I reiterate; "I am not a slave"

"their god" meaning the Abrahamic one?? Or all the others that are worshipped on this planet at this point in time??
The "complaints" are valid arguments against the use of religion and the abrahamic god being seen as benevolent.

Already been done sweet cheeks....Nicene comes to mind ...and look where that got us!!
Interesting concept....couple of quick questions
a) ever herded cats??
b) have you considered the well being of the Escherichia coli in your anus today?? Taken an intense interest in whether or not the are serving you well?? Whether they are happy??
c) If not why not??? Or do you need an ecumenical council for that??
