The
God of Fundamentalist Christianity --
The Ultimate Weapon of Mass
Destruction:
The God of fundamental Christianity
is hardly a role model for moral
behavior. He is angry, jealous, intolerant, easily displeased,
vindictive, prone to violence, rigid, fickle, needy, geedy, brooding,
hypocritical, unforgiving completely unfair, fundamentally evil, merciless,
lacking in compassion, and has a history of committing genocide.
He's also known for sending his believers out rape, rob, pillage, plunder, and
murder those who believe in a different religion. According to the Bible, the God of Christianity has ordered and/or condoned
mass murder, slavery, religious intolerance; the torture of
prisoners; the treating of women as property, and the killing of innocent
babies. He still, to this day, requires the execution of
non-virgin brides, witches, gays and any woman who commits adultery.
(Somehow He forgets to condemn the men involved in this heinous crime of lust.)
He also condemns to death any child who willfully disobeys and curses a parent.
He
advocates genocide, sexism, racism, homophobia, xenophobia, and has condemned
the entire human race the status of "inherently evil" simply
because a long-dead ancestor (Eve) ate an apple from the wrong tree --
a tree which, by the way, He intentionally set right in front of her nose.
And if the Fundamentalist Christians are correct about
God's
Conception Magic Act, He's
also
the
world's cruelest and most evil baby murderer.
Is
this the same God who sent Jesus to Earth to preach forgiveness and then to get
tortured and murdered? And if all this is not enough, He
demands to be worshiped under threat of eternal damnation for those who don't
comply. The Biblical passages below represent just a small sample of his
terror-provoking, criminal behavior:
Deuteronomy
7:1-2:
"...
the seven nations greater and mightier than thou; And when the LORD thy God
shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them;
thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them."
Joshua
6:21:
"And
they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and
old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword."
Joshua
10:40-41:
"So
Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale,
and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly
destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded. And Joshua
smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen,
even unto Gibeon."
Exodus
12:29-30:
"And
it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the
firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of
cattle. And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the
Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where
there was not one dead."
And
if you're concerned about "Family Values," you'll surely love
this passage.
Joshua
7:20-25:
"...Achan
answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of
Israel... And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and
the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his
daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all
that he had: and they brought them unto the valley of Achor. And Joshua said,
Why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel
stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire, after they had stoned them
with stones."
God
even commits the ultimate act of genocide. Except for Noah and his
seven family members, God murdered the entire human race.
Genesis
6:5-9:
"And
GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it
repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his
heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face
of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the
air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes
of the LORD. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect
in his generations, and Noah walked with God."
Does this mass murdered consciousness -- the mass
murder of thousands of innocent men, women and
children -- make you wonder if this character who
passes himself off
as God is somehow related to Stalin, Hitler, and Saddam
Hussein?)*
*Reference: Do you suppose humans could have been
been duped by a make believe god?°
The
above-mentioned passages are only samples taken form an extensive criminal
record. For a more complete list of God's murderous rampages,
readers are referred to the Religious Tollerance.org web site page:

And
think about this for a moment: The above Biblical passages list only
a portion what we know about God's "life of crime."
Imagine what he has done that we don't know
about.°
