The Bible God: Cruel, Savage, Deranged, Evil, Barbaric, Intolerant, Insanely Jealous, Vengeful and Bloodthirsty?

This thread is in response to the many who believe God has these attributes and then refuse to accept Him into their lives.

****************

Is the God of the Bible an immoral egotistical arrogant tyrant in his prejudiced demands to be worshiped as the one true God and his condemnation of those who worship other gods? Is he an insanely angry bigot? Crueller than the cruellest earthly dictator in his bloodlust and hatred and barbaric desire for killing and violence? A ruthless baby and child killer? Bursting into enraged childish temper tantrums at the most minor provocation and inflicting deadly punishments on people for trivial offences?

Is the Bible a malicious and intolerant book of hate literature which should be treated with contempt by anyone with an ounce of compassion because it incites irrational acts of barbarity? Did it directly incite the "burning times" when Christians in their supposed zeal for biblical commands tortured and killed anyone accused of being a witch? These are all charges commonly brought against the God of the Bible and the Bible itself by many sceptics, with similar vehemence as that just displayed. Are they true?

Tell THAT to the poor cunts in HELL..getting a good DOSE of his LOVE and MERCY.

The word "hell" is translated from the original Greek word "Hades", which simply means "the grave". Everyone who ever died (with a few exceptions like Enoch, Moses, Elijah) is in "hell".

Do not confuse "Hell" with "The Lake of Fire". The wicked will be cast into, and destroyed, in the Lake of Fire when the time comes.

However, no one is "burning" now. The doctrine of an "eternal hell" is not biblical, and is a Roman Catholic creation. Satan used it with GREAT success, to bring people into the greatest antichrist system on earth, and to make many other people detest God.
