I wasn't referring to the human qualities he displays, but to the general concept of a being who built the universe with the snap of his fingers yet needs to give himself a bloody nose in order to forgive people for being just as imperfect as he designed them to be. And so on. Being an obnoxious moral busybody doesn't make god incomprehensible, it just makes him a Republican.

Thanks for the clarification!

Oops. I did it again!

Fucking hell 11% of voters would kill their own child if god told them too.
OK 10% of these are having a laugh.
That still leaves 1 in a hundred that would, about the % of psychopaths in the general population.
If you hear any voices in your head, God or otherwise go straight to your doctor.
You will be prescribed anti psychotic drugs which will make you better.
If you are told to kill your child, dont, take the child to a trusted friend, then get someone to take you to the doctor, someone who will keep you calm and safe.

I would happily sacrifice anyone who answers this query in the affirmative.

I'm sure that some yes votes are just people goofing around.

This has been asked before, but I believe I should sacrifice my child if God is truly asking me to. It would be better for the child, but being human and imperfect, I'm not sure whether or not I would pass the test as Abraham did.

GTFO dude.

You'd sacrifice your own child to appease a being that is demonstrably not worth following should it ask you to do this?

Bro, that's fucked up man.

If someone told me to kill my (nonexistent) kid, I'd likely either call the police or check into a hospital.

You just made me look up this hitchens video. It is fucking BRILLIANT.


To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Wow, that's one I'd never heard before. Thanks for posting. That host is an arsehole.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
