Aha! The writer made Him do it defense!! The point is, that if there is a God, He, She or It, has to be superior in kind to creation, Superior in every way, that is. including, specially ethically:bounce When Yahweh orders genocide he utterly fails the test of how a god has to be to be god, for if god is capable of doing or ordering acts so despicable that even the majority of us flawed and immature humans find abominable, he is definitely no better than us and certainly much worse than most of us
IF WE BELIEVE AND WORSHIP A GOD IN THE IMAGE OF ADOLPH HITLER, TIMUR THE LAME, MAO TSE TUNG AND POL POT, WE DO SO AT OUR OWN PERIL
Such a god cannot possibly be good let alone loving and, in my book, is not worthy of any praise, or worship, let alone, faith or belief:tsk:
