Food For Logical Thought...
by braincleaned insometimes we waste hours and hours debating a subject like the flood, and the impossible scientific and evolutionary consequences that it entails.
we go into great debates about how all of is is possible, what a "kind" means (species, obviously not)... etc.... but believers will not stop believing... so here is something even a child would think of more logically:if god is all powerful and love why would he have not just made the wicked drop dead, painlessly?
simply, humanly.

I'm a bit disappointed that the comments that followed mainly deflected my main point.
My main point was that the CHARACTER of God in the Bible is a horrid and cruel one. Not Love at all.
I don't care if he used natural catastrophes or not. I don't care that the wicked were in fact wicked or not.
I am discussing the nature of the punishment... the fact that an all powerful God would be totally in charge of the punishment He would choose.The Biblical account invokes a FACT: Jehovah used a most horrid way to destroy those he judged wicked!
He had the choice to prevent:- The (ridiculous) gathering of all species (or "kinds") of animals to the point of rendez-vous; the Ark.
- The building of an imposing Ark to escape the destruction of the world as they knew it.
- His regretting having destroyed the earth, and promising to never do that again.

Seraphim23, I agree. I wanted to stqart a discussion — I am an atheist. I wanted to point out the cruelty of the Jehovah character in the Bible.

Eden One: I nowadays lean towards - although I don't make it a dogmatic assertion - that in some cases of natural phenomena (the flood and the destruction of Sodom being two of them) God acted opportunistically...
This makes absolutely no sense. If God has no power over natural causes, he is not an almighty God — If he DOES have power over them, my opening remark is still valid. -

... and to think Satan is the bad guy — when all he is accused of is lying!
You'd think God's word would paint him darker than the "good guy", huh? -

Shaking my head at Cold Steel and the huge debate around a Jesus that is a man built up in mythology in the first place — a clone of earlier writtings.
So sad to me...
So much better to have a realtionship with Reality. -

Oh my... if I had a dollar for every time I heard " his thoughts are higher than our thoughts"...
Fact is, his thoughts a LOWER than our thoughts. I told my zealous JW mom that even SHE had superior morals than her own God — since she clearly does not agree with slavery and genocide, nor jealousy and a vengeful spirit... etc...
But you know sheep, you can punch them in the face and they still act like you did nothing.
