Hello and welcome to the forums!

I hear you on the sick and disgusting part, but an open declaration that one would rape and murder and commit other atrocities if god told them to is new to me. Most theists I've heard speaking out on the issue like to dodge the question by saying god wouldn't tell them to do that. That really is sickening.

I think you have a very good point there:

I like it. I'm looking forward to hearing more from you Big Grin
