Not to say there isn't a right and a wrong by God, just that he's not the one seperating us from being a part of him we are. Nor do I subscribe to hell being any different than seperation from the wonderous.
Where you read "barbaric, jealous and morally defunct deity " I read barbaric, jealous and morally defunct society. What seems to be lacking from the atheistic majority at times seems to be personal accountability.
But truly I agree that blind anything is defunct in all it's aspect. I'm glad the majority on here attempt to open eyes.
He allows you to be with him or get bent, in layman's terms - his way or the highway. That's totalitarianism. We judge becuse it's our nature to discern what is right and wrong by our standards, and in my personal opinion, the God if the Bible is morally defunct. I wasn't talking about society. I was talking about the character of the Christian God being nothing more than a bipolar megalomaniacal jerk. He orders rape and murder, condones slavery, kills people to prove points to Satan, not to mention creates beings that from birth cannot live up to a standard the creator set.
