    Even Jesus thought so. “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s” means exactly that.

      Like these asshats have ever read the Bible. At least, nothing past the old testament.

          Bringing up God summoning 2 bears to slaughter 42 children for calling one of his deciples a “baldhead” is always a fun tid bit!

          I would not call that a just or kind god.

            Many of the OT stories are horrifying. Book of Job is probably the worst, where a petty God destroys a good and pious man to win a wager with Satan.

            Who would be interested in worshipping a God who would do such a thing to his own followers, and whose omnipotence is so limited that he can be tricked by Satan into performing evil acts?
