I'm pretty sure that's the one he's talking about.

Three posts back and forth and you seem to agree on almost everything each other says. A Mutual Admiration Society. Wouldn't it be nice if all debates turned out that way.

The God of the bible does bad things. Very bad things. Didn't he want to kill every living creature until talked into only killing 99.99999. .% by Noah? Hitler and Stalin never reached such a percentage.

Andy,

Many people would be worse off if they were forced to admit that their beliefs abot God were wrong. Some maybe much worse off. I do not think that applies to the majority of those who post on these forums. But there are exceptions. And I try to steer clear of them. The nice guy in me occasionally forces its way out. It should be much easier for you.

Sometimes the not-so-nice guy in me forces its way out.

A god that can wipe out the entire human race without violating his concepts of justice or love is not a god worth worshipping. At least not for me. Sounds more like the devil.

His anger is based on justice, and His love is manifested by the sacrifice of His Son. If that's not for you, you have no grounds for complaint. To accuse God of being like the devil ... no, that's not for me to say.

A mean, vindictive, angry bastard.

I once heard someone verbally curse Jesus. I don't mean he just used His name in vain. I mean he cursed Him, called him the mf word, as if He was standing there. I was so shocked I couldn't think of anything to say. But the guy really meant it, from the depth of his heart. Scary.

Oddly enough, it was at the poker table. He had just had a bad beat. For the next two hours he won almost every hand he played. That was when I felt the most sorry for him.

You still don't have that part right. No wonder you're so wrong on almost everything else.

Hint: If you don't own a Bible there's plenty online, it would take 5 minutes to find your mistake.
