That is highly debatable. The actions of this "good" god don't really mesh well with what most modern people believe is good.

Junior Member  Religious Views: Ask yourself what would Jesus do? Would he wear socks with sandals? No. (June 28, 2014 at 5:56 am)Knowledge of God Wrote: Jesus: "who are you calling good, only the Father in heaven is good" Only 11 posts till a Christian had to pull Jesus out of his arse and try to twist it around. To Knowledge of God, I ask you- is your motivation to be good only to reap an eternal reward from Skydaddy? Then you are only selfish.
It's not immoral to eat meat, abort a fetus or love someone of the same sex...I think that about covers it

(June 28, 2014 at 5:56 am)Knowledge of God Wrote: Jesus: "who are you calling good, only the Father in heaven is good"What Jesus is figuratively saying, is that only god is real. In other words, only god is good and evil, for there is no other. Your deity pretty much created the lie of reality to keep himself from going bored or insane in the very endless, and very real, void of nothingness. Sucks to be him. But that's NOT what we're discussing. We're addressing what qualities or attributes makes or defines a person's character overall as morally correct and emphatic towards others.

What is your gods will exactly? Because some peoples idea of god's will is getting in planes and blowing other people. Had they adopted a more secular view of being a good person, they wouldn't be such *ssholes.
Nobody knows what Yahweh/Jesus' will is. You have three different religions worshiping Yahweh, and different denominations among those religions.
