Yahweh is immoral

I believe the definitions help. For instance many of the parables are allegorical and metaphorical and clearly fictional stories and not actual events.

Genesis 1 is clearly a fictional event.

I believe you understand that much. Now if you could actually figure out which is which.

I can’t. I rely on Baha’u’llah, Abdul-Baha and Shoghi Effendi to know these things. All I can do is post what they say but I’m just like anyone else, I haven’t got the insight or wisdom to differentiate them all.

I love Mark Smith's books, but they are dang expensive.

Any papers from academia that have been peer-reviewed and packaged to sell are really overpriced. Same with some books. You have to find a scholar who gets published by an respected publishing company who doesn't work with scholarship. Richard Carrier has reasonably priced books. William Dever also.

My argument is simple.
It is immoral to send a good person to hell for the sin of worshiping another god.

A girl is born in Pakistan into a Hindu family. Throughout her life she proves over and over again that she is the perfect archetype of a principle centered moral and just person. She has heard about other religions but practices Hindu faith becuse she was born into it.

If Yahweh is the one true God, and heaven and hell exists, then this woman's soul will be tortured in hell for all eternity?

Please discuss one's own case to understand one's stand point clearly.

Regards

2. his concept of morality.
3. what methodology did one adopt to arrive at the above, please

Right?

Is your concept of morality that Yahweh is moral because Yahweh says that Yahweh is moral?

Isn't it G-d (Allah/Yahweh) who ultimately decides as to what is moral and immoral, please?

No. A god merely decides to exercise his subjective position on morality. The fact that he cannot be stopped from torturing or annihilating someone does not make him moral. It just makes him vindictive.
