The Satanic quality of the Internet

Sorry, but I do not buy that. There are too many examples of how God just randomly, arbitrarily, for no good reason, terrorises not only the enemies of the selected holy people, but also the virtuous heroes of that peope themselves, from demanding to sacrifice their first-born to show their loyalty to random divine command, over demands for conquest and ethnic cleansing, to threatening and torturing his loyal followers to take the time before they fall apart in despair or not. That is sadism and psychopathy in its most obvious form. Moral lessons to be taken from that: none. Wiping out a city becasue the administraiton is corrupt and people in bedrooms do things that God has designed them to do? Drowning the world and animals as well as humans in retaliation for man being like God made him? Just watching as hosts of male angels hand over their daughters to the mob for gang rape to avoid handing over the guests? Condemmning all mankind until all etenertic becasue it gained wisom in the garden of Eden to differ between what is good and what is evil instead of just submissively playing at voyeuristic God's feet like puppies? Condemning families over four generations because one early member denied to be totally submissive and obedient?

Sorry, there is only one moral lesson to be learned from the style of rulership of this god: if you meet God, spank his azz, pulverise him and feed the powder to the rats. They will instantly die, no doubt. Poor rats. Maybe God makes a good agent for a new chemical WMD.

Or put him for all eternal in a high security station of a mental asylum. One of these rooms they locked Hannibal Lector in, you know.
