    Did that thread title shock some of you.....I hope so.

    Jehovah, slow to anger, merciful and just.....how rightous his ways are.

    Does Jehovah kill innocent little babies? The bible tells us that Jehovah does not punish children because of their parents error,

    The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father... (Ezek. 18:20)

    ...The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin. (2 Ki. 14:6; also 2 Ch. 25:4)

    Does Jehovah keep his promise and follow his own advise? Let's see
    Ex. 20:5, in which God ordains vicarious punishment:
    ...for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me
    (So far Jehovah is really lying)

    Heres another lie:,

    Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces... [NIV: Because of you I will rebuke your descendants; I will spread on your faces the offal from your festival sacrifices...] (Mal. 2:3) ( he still lying )

    So.....are there some examples of Jehovah being a baby murderer? Let's see

    1) And it came to pass, when Pharoah would hardly let us go, that the Lord slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt... (Ex. 13:15)

    2) Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. (vs. 17)..

    3) In Lev. 26:22 God threatens to "send wild beasts among [the Israelites],
    which shall rob [them] of [their] children...", and in Jer. 6:11 the prophet warns that even children are not exempt from the Lord's wrath:

    4) Later, in the 18th chapter of Jeremiah, the prophet angrily urges the Lord to starve, and then slaughter, the children of certain unrepentent wayward Israelites:
    Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword... (vs. 21)

    5) Of course he murdered all the children in Sodom too...because of the sins of the parents..........oh ya!.....he did it in the flood too......because of the wicked parents.........................

    The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father... (Ezek. 18:20)

    Yeah .....my ass!

    Now then.....aren't you glad we are all in good hands with the author of the bible.....Jehovah the liar and child killer?

    Hey realist,

    I guess as a fiction novel it might be good.

    Gumby,

    Jehovah of Armies should start picking on someone his own size, eh?

    He also killed David's little baby boy because of his affair with Bathsheba.

    Realist,

    I made it to Exodus. Neener neener neener!

    gumby, that's a good layout of obviously contradictory Scripture.

    Another set that has always bothered me...How many Psalms are there where David praises God for blessing the righteous and crushing the wicked, and then in other places laments how the wicked seem to prosper while the righteous suffer? And then there's always the "time and unforeseen occurence" clause.

    With these three possibilities in mind, I could be:

    1) a wicked son of a wicked father, and fare well

    2) a wicked son of a wicked father, and fare badly

    3) a wicked son of a righteous father, and fare well

    4) a wicked son of a righteous father, and fare badly

    5) a righteous son of a wicked father, and fare well

    6) a righteous son of a wicked father, and fare badly

    7) a righteous son of a righteous father, and fare well

    8) a righteous son of a righteous father, and fare badly

    Sorta narrows down the possibilities, eh? LOL
